I saw STP back in like 95 or something and in the middle of their set an acoustic stage lowered from the top and they did like an hour of acoustic stuff. It was really awesome, probably one of the best concert experiences I've had.

Saw a classic of indian cinema today: Pyaasa by Guru Dutt (1957), a drama about a penniless poet struggling with love and recognition in a society he increasingly despises. In this particular song (indian cinema, so there are songs!), he describes a poor red light district, with the hook asking where the people proud of India are. Very poignant, even without english subtitles (the auto-translated subtitles are surprisingly decent though).
PS: The poet is actually played by the director himself, but the singing, as it was (is?) customary is done by a playback singer.
