World Blood Day, Mahaan Kirtan Smaagam & Blood Appeal

[naujawanidotcom]

As we are broadcasting live audio from todays events at Singh Sabha Gurdwara, Southall as well as publishing photographs and other commentary where necessary I hope the mods can see it in their infinite wisdom to keep this thread going in the General section for the next few hours at least. If you are sitting behind a computer screen for the next few hours, why not tune in to the proceedings on Naujawani:Radio via Naujawani.com. We will try to update this thread as we go to give you a better feeling of being part of the sangat.

Jathedar Gurbachan Singh of Sri Akal Takht Sahib is here for this evening's programme.

The whole event is about enhancing blood donation amongst our community.

We are terribly sorry about the break in broadcasting from time to time and the occasional peaks in the audio. Granthis never know when to leave a mixer alone!!!

There are numerous jathas on stage today:

Some beautiful kavishri kickebar.

Sorry sevaji, our connection has been somewhat lossy... we endeavour to have an unbroken connection for the remainder of the evening. However, it only breaks occasionally now. If it does cut out click refresh to get a boosted signal. Stay tuned!

A Packed Singh Sabha tonight at Havelock Road.

The first kirtani jatha performed beautifully.

Bhai Gursharan Singh and jatha.

There are many kirtani down to be on tonight I reckon. There is hardly any room back stage! You can spot Bhai Anoop Singh to the left of the image.

We do apologise for the broadcasting peaking on occasion - amazing isn't it? People in Gurdwaras can spend into the tens of thousands for their PA, mixer, speakers, microphones etc and then they let just about anybody fiddle with it. Maybe somebody should arrange some basic mixing training for Granthis around the World? A task for the SGPC me thinks. If another guy touches this mixer... I'm gonna walk out. Although that being said this kirtani has a phenomenally powerful voice - phew!

Hey if you are listening and following the thread, say so!! Spread the word... we are doing our best to bring you a top-quality sound broadcasting (with the pics!)
