| Creating music with Drum Sticks alone... |
During the course of our interaction, Music Director Paul Jacob invited me to a Drum fight at the Alliance Françoise, which he was coordinating. Coming from such a soft person, an invitation to a fight was a surprise as well as a nagging doubt about the well being of my friend. However, it turned out to be an interesting evening where we all were given a special musical treat with 3 different drummers, dressed as a Samurai, Roman and Indian warriors, fighting for the supremacy in their own unique way. They call themselves Drum Fighters and could use anything like beer bottles, tennis ball etc. to create great music.

You can get to know about the group and their activities through their page Drum Fighters, while let me showcase you the videos that I have had captured during the event at Alliance Françoise. Hope you will enjoy the various moods and colors of the event.
It was such a pleasure to spend some time with the amazing Drum Fighters...
