Pere Ubu



I stopped in Mumbai on my way to a FTSE BOD meeting in New York. As I have heard so much about Mumbai clubbing, I decided to get out and find some of these places. My first stop would be a jazz club, as I love jazz and want to hear live jazz whenever I can.

I noticed that the Mungolian Jet Set was playing at a club called Blue Frog and headed over there from the Grand Central Hotel on Sunday evening. The Norwegian protaganist was dressed in some kind of a cloth helmet and Mongolian embroidered jacket. He was mixing a house vibe with an Indian fellow playing the guitar and another fellow beating on the bongo drums - Indian style, not Caribean.

I had a couple drinks and got out of there.

The Norwegian buy looked like Pere Ubu except that he didn't have a big concentric circle motif - the infamous gidouille - on his pot belly.
