is cultural diversity truly celebrated! Where else can you go to a “Tribute to U2” concert and an “Amjad Fareed Sabri Qawali” night in a single weekend!

I love the cosmopolitan nature of this city!

    haha mansoor.. where else? New York, London, Toronto, Singapore and anywhere with a sizable desi population.

    And chances are, instead of a U2 tribute, you’ll have the real thing playing live.

    arsalan: it sponsored by Sony Erricson and some other corporate sponsors, dont know who organized it though, but i think it might’ve been them as well.

    sufi & turab: it was interesting.. locals playing U2 songs. Everything was great except for the vocals :p the guy (Muhammad Usama) just didn’t do justice to either U2 or the crowd.

    lies: well yea.. internationally ofcourse :p i meant in pakistan

    Can someone explain this desi fascination with U2? I think they are an annoying and mediocre band. There was a time when U2 was good – but that time is long gone.
