The Gary Lawyer Chat

Alisha: If you have noticed these are essentially very Hindi music oriented awards. Also the fact that this album has been released after a gap of three years since my last album.

Gary: Why did your record company ignore you? Was it because they were too busy promoting the cousins?

Gary I'm shocked I had always heard rumours that record compnies in India were sloppy but this takes the cake...................Tell me since you have seen the whole inception of this industry tell us how much of sleaze is in it? and all the rest? so that atleast people like us out here don't have any illusions about the high handed behavious of such record companies

If record companies treat you so badly, why do you stick with singing? Or are you independently wealthy?

DKA: No not the Cousins. They are worth promoting. But promoting a whole heap of other artistes as is the trend in the world of Hindi pop. Mine is a much smaller audience.

But Gary is it true that the fact is that these pop singers mentioned by Alisha use their sex appeal to boost up their ratings and most of the time its their faces that sell the record? Don't you think you would have done much better if you would have been a girl???please gimme a honest answer

Alisha: I'd love to tell you but at this point in time I have a new album just released and let's just hope it does as well as I feel it deserves to do. I think in all humility, it's a great album.

DKA: Singing is like my right arm. I couldn't cut it out of my life. And in my own way I'm doing very well.

Hey Gary ole man lets go to the Alabama Whiskey BaR what are u doing in a cafe??*smile* given up whiskey already?

Gary I think you are afraid of answering Alisha's question.......are you afraid???????

Shamoli: I have a lot of faith in my own voice and I'm looking on to much bigger things than just selling locally. And I have the satisfaction of doing the kind of music my heart and soul dictate. And that's reward enough for me.

Gary my friend do you believe in God? If yes why if not why???*Oh take me to the next whiskey bar..............

Hiya Gary! About when did you get the singin' bug man? Did ya mama hav anythin' to do wi it?

Shamoli: I think I am. I have enough to worry about being a purely western musician in an Indian society.

WHAT THINGS .......telll us about them......as our good old frend Louis Armstrong said We have all the time in the world.............*pulling up a chair* so tell us?

so whatcha gonna do next man?

HEY MAN do you belive that ELVIS is still alive?????I've seen him couple of times hanging around those junkies looking for a drag *grin*

Morrison: I believe Elvis is dead - physically.

Hi GARY, how is the Western msuic scene in India? Is there any scope for guys and bands who do urely English numbers to survive without having to play cover versions?

...

When you were little, which ones really made a difference to you? Like did you play in the school band and such?

Paul: No scope for purely original music - performance-wise. I guess I am one of the luckier guys who has a contract to do purely western albums.

Hey Gary my an sing a song for us ........your lates number ......c'mon veeryone LETS HEAR IT FOR GARY.....

Yeah c'mon GARY

'RAH! Rah! Sing MAn Sing!

Please GARY A song............:-)

Yo GARY man how u doing??

Minstrel: I've been a singer all my life. I also played the guitar and the piano in my school days. But I guess I was too shy to go out and play in front of an audience. But I did play in a band as a rhythm guitarist but not as a singer.

;-):-):):)WE're waitin'!
