Here's an account of Friday's events at the 2008 RMIM meet held in New
Jersey at Uma and Abhay Jain's place.
I had been looking forward to this meet since a long time. I recall
how keen Satish ji was for having a meet in the area. Many thanks to
Uma ji,Abhay ji, Deepali and Nikhil for keeping the tradition alive.
Having meets and sharing the passion for music is the least we can do
to keep Satish ji's spirit alive.
I took a Friday afternoon flight into LGA and was treated to a
stunning view of Manhattan. From LGA I took a shuttle to Newark and
got stuck in the friday evening traffic. Ritu had kindly agreed to
pick me up and she was running late as well. She came a few minutes
after I arrived at Newark airport, and Abhay's place was just a short
drive away.
jaane kahaan mera "naksha" gaya ji:
Historically folks who have given me rides to RMIM meets get lost, as
I (unintentionally) engage them into engrossing conversation :) Worse
was to happen here as the piece of paper having the driving directions
got misplaced. Finally we were on our way but not before Abhay called.
