A few days ago I had mentioned about the music and dance makers which is now 
part and parcel of the festivities in the dungeons of South China. 
Unfortunately and with all the instruments available for a Rajan and Prema song 
with our mando in toe one hears Irene Carra, I will survive and Ameican Pie. It 
looks like the band did not do its home work or were told to play this 
incompatible music. I am also not to sure if the band has its origin in 
bangalaru, but certainly Maria Pitache is not concani but a song from Damao. In 
fact it is Maria butacheiro - Maria smells goods or has a good fragrance 
according to the people from Damao. It is wrongly sung by our bharat ratnam who 
was the originator of this putache.
