Hi,
I just came across a blog where the blogger mentioned about arr
fans in an issue which he was discussing there. I believe many of us
here doesnt know the real hard work which our group admin and others
from bangalore have done to present rahman with a great gift.
Here you can read about that:
Around the same time in 2005, fans of renowned music director A. R.
Rahman were hard at work organizing a concert in Bangalore. These
guys managed everything from promotions and ticket sales to stage
construction and crowd control on the day of the concert (October 8,
2005). As part of their effort to gain recognition as the "official"
Rahman fan group, they also decided to present Rahman with a gift—a
montage, composed of thumbnail images of all his album covers, which
formed the contours of his face. Faced with the prospect of buying
expensive software, a group of fans (who run a design company called
3xus.com) went on to develop their own software. After many
sleepless nights of painstaking coding, they finally got to meet
Rahman and present the gift. A few days later, they learned that
Rahman liked the gift and planned to display it in his studio in
Chennai. This is a story of fan activity that mainstream media
completely ignored.
Acknowledging these fans' perseverance, technical and marketing
savvy, and global network established through online activities,
Rahman and his team have decided to collaborate with them to promote
and organize concerts in different cities worldwide, evolve new
modes of music distribution, and work together to tackle piracy
