One helluva meet ! My fourth AIPGM over the years....And can whole-heartedly say that the meets have really 'grown' ! From random wandering on the streets of Bangalore not knowing where to go next, to checking out ride after ride at Essel World to finally being part of this 'well organized' meet ! One helluva ride indeed

Was great to catch up with oldies Quinty, Monil, Tanveer, Ali, Saikat, Chuck, Grondie, Pranav, Nikhil, Mahip, and a whole host of newbies/newer oldies .....The five golden balls, Apurv, Chuck, Soumik, Vineet, Aditya, Ashwin gave a rocking performance....And in spite of how they themselves feel about the show, I thought it was a damn good show ! Aditya's voice still rings, and the PG anthem needs to be put up on the forums asap !!!

The skit by Sandeep, Ashwin, Rohit, and the whole gang at PGHQ was seriously funny....The fact that it was in Authentic Hyderabadi only helped to increase the fun quotient. Great work guys....And yea, lest I forget, Rohit sure has a future on-stage

And finally, the Salsa ! Guess they saved the best for the last. Nobody would believe these guys picked up the steps in a week. Allwin, Aditya, Sukita, and Sharmista (I hope I got the names of the ladies right) sure gave one amazing performance...And to top it, repeated it immediately on popular demand ! Gr8 show guys....And Allwin, pls do add your Salsa skills to your marriage CV

Post-dinner, spent a while at the beach, and surprisingly, everyone returned back to the resort at the stroke of midnight And what ensued thereafter....Hehe.....Was something that was to be experienced. Quinty, Pranav, Saikat and a few other oldies cornered Rohit and PG on the need to 'spice' up the forum.....How there ain't too many 'awssumm' posters these days.....and the like......Last heard, a whole set of initiatives on changing status quo.... <lips-sealed>

On the whole, one of the best PG meets that I have been to over the past 6+ years that I've been on these forums... Congratulations to everyone at PGHQ on an extremely well organized meet..... Great conversations, Great Camaraderie amongst absolute strangers, and above all Great people- the defining ingredients of a successful PG meet........ Here's wishing PG and his wonderful team all the success !


!!! Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity !!!

More pics while we get there. Please do not miss the restaurant sign : After you eat here, you will not eat anywhere else

And please note Allwin running into a Croma after hours of searching for one!
The i10 is Apurv's vehicle.

This is the last series of photos before reaching the resort.

Due to an error on my memory card, I was unable to transfer more photos But hopefully enough people at the meet had cameras and were able to take some good pics.

I'll post some more photos of Five Golden Balls practicing, tomorrow. My battery is about to die out on my laptop and I left the charger at office

Re: [The 6th Nonsense] AIPGM on 23rd/24th May in Mumbai[Sponsored by Zenith Computers - 26-05-2009, 12:42 PM

hi puys,
this is officially my 3rd post on PG but unofficially the 1st.. I say that because my 1st post (wayy bak in 2k7) was an introduction post and 2nd in this thread itself saying "im coming too".
But then as they say, "meri aakhen khul gayi"... i finally decided to write today..
The AIPGM came to me as yet-another-event, with a frnd of mine telling me about it. I didnt pay attn to it at first, thinkin who wud go all the way from Pune to Mum.. but after another 3 days when my frnd asked me again saying that its now "full" and the seats are "booked" that i gave it a serious thought...
1. Getaway for the weekend
2. Prepaid trip
3. Away from the heat (a pool to cool it off.. i knew that bcoz i visited the site arnalabeachresort.com.... yes i had the time to look it up on google and actually visit the site... )
4. Tshirt + a book to read.
Disclaimer: I was never into any discussion on PG n i didnt know abt the awesomeness of the ppl here... i performed a total cost-benefit analysis from a purely (ailenated) perspective.

Anyways, since all seats were 'booked' and there was also a 'waiting list' i just entered my name into the form with no expectation atall. The next day i received a call saying i was confirmed for the PG meet. It was then that i actually had some interest in looking up the PG site as a whole, with special concentration on this thread - and then came my 2nd post on PG.

I immediately asked a frnd of mine to book tickets for me (Pune-Mumbai).. On friday, as i woke up i began having 2nd thoughts, but by then i was told that the tickets were booked.. thus, quashing all such feelings, i began looking forward to it.

And then everything was history...
Guys, the AIPGM rocked. It was truly awesome and i must really thank all you guys for havin organised this event. It was very well coordinated and planned. I must say that i enjoyed my time.

Allwin man, your dance was Oomph !! lol And "MBA nako re baba" was simply ......

Ok, another confession... since ive been to the meet, now ive been visiting PG atleast 2 times a day and actually reading posts... Now u guys have gained a new active Puy..

Keep rocking guys...

Koi na.... Next year i'll make sure that I stay there till the very end....


But the little time I spent there was so much of fun ....

Thanks to pagalguy for organising such a bhokali meet and Special thanks to rohit for being such a wonderful host...

Hi All,

Awesome meet, Thanks to PG HQ for arranging such a grand meet and not to mention taking care of each and everything, a perfect host.

Though I was one of the last few to join the meet as I was tied up with some personal work and could join my fellow puys only around 8:00 PM. But thankfully I did not miss out on the awesome Performance (Read Skit/Salsa/Rock Show). Thank You all for entertaining each and everyone.

The place was good with good acco facility, good food, pool to chill out but it was the interaction with the unknown faces (Puys) which I have wondered all these years with the unique PG id that was the high point of this meet.

I could not attend last year meet and back then I had made up my mind to attend this years meet and with such a great chance to interact with the pagals of this country I do not think that I will ever like to skip this gala event.

Special thanks to Rohit and the entire PG team for arranging such a great meet and never the less Thanks to our sponosor Zenith for holding hands of PG to host such a amazing event.

PG Rocks PG Rules

Thanks
KGB

Note:- It would be great if junta can share more pics clicked during the meet.
