do u think no one knew or felt abt current session of 3dtour is somewat not
near to d ones happened in 2000.. (neatly organised) everyone owns dvd of LA
2000 concert man.... & when seeing d current concerts in youtube videos
itself........, v could feel & relate to his previous shows........ but things
cannot b same all d time........... as 2006 did not happen rehman made it a
point to somehow finish it by 2007.... if he looks 4 more organised, more big
singers & all dat stuff as u expected.... he has to again delay to 2008 & who
knows some other commitments / things may come & again delay to 2009...... NOW
U FEEL FOR ATLANTA FANS........ seems like they r not going to get even what u
got.........

Disappointing Concert -
Bored Rahman->
He was on stage on and off. Sometimes didn't have anything to do.
Looked detached from the proceedings. Sometimes he was seen watching
the big screen behind the stage standing in front of his keyboard.
Fewer musicians-> Compared to his previous two USA concerts there
were very few musicians. Watch the LA concert DVD from year 2000 for
comparison. In that concert, every song was reproduced exactly same
as the original. In this concert, he didn't have enough people to
play all those minor instruments he uses in a song. Secondly,
sometimes you could hear the music but see no one playing. I think it
was mix of music being perforned live and tracks being played.
Dancing completely out of place-> unlike 2000 LA concert.
Small stage-> Very small stage.
Many of the regular musicians replaced by Substitutes (Miami
University??)->
Also some performers were picked by Rahman a week ago in a talent
search in US. One singer was particulary bad, the one who sang the
Saathiya song. I know Rahman likes experiment etc., but to take
thousands of audience for granted and put up a bad singer. That is
arrogance.
His star vocals group completely missing-> No Domnique, Ganga, Febi,
Rehana, Clinton, Devan to name a few.
Overall, a low budget, very average show, with tickets no cheaper. I
guess, I got to erase this concert from memory.
