Does someone who was at the concert have a complete list of songs performed, information on improvisations over their studio versions etc?

Humma Humma was like an anthem, as was chaiya chaiya, ghanan ghanan, Yeh jo des hai tera, and Vande Matram. All the other songs from Roja, Bombay, Yuva, Meenaxi, Kisna, Mangal Pandey, Sathiya and some tamil songs (sorry don't know Tamil) were very enjoyable too. > > Shivamani performed solo on his percussions half way through the concert and he was simply amazing! > > Male Singers were Kailash Kher, Hariharan, Naresh Iyer (?) Shanker Mahadevan, Blaze and Daler Mendi. I think I spotted Kunal Ganjawala (or may be he was a look alike). Female singers: Alka, Sadhna, Madhushree, Reena Bhardwaj, Sapna Awasthy (?) and a couple others whose names I could not hear. > > All singers were excellent but Daler was very funny as was Blaze. Of the female singers, Sadhna Sargam was outstanding!
