GUWAHATI, Dec 3: Having toured as many as six Indian cities, ‘Last Train’ arrived in Guwahati on Saturday. Last Train does not have any locomotive engine– for it is a French rock band.
Talking to The Sentinel, Antoine, a drummer of the band, said: “We’re on a tour of visiting eleven Indian cities. As of now, we’ve visited six cities – Shillong, Mumbai, Bangalore etc., before coming to Guwahati. Our experience on our first footfall in India is awesome. However, the real excitement is still to be felt. We’ll experience that only after setting foot back on France having visited 11 Indian cities. The crowd of audience we’re getting in India is very supportive. People of India are real music lovers. It’s an interesting job to share the rock music of one country with the music lovers of another country.”
Jean Noel, a vocalist and guitarist of the band, said: “The weather of Assam is awesome – being a blend of chill and warm. It’s quite different from the weather of our country. However, we’ve acclimatized ourselves here. The food here’s very spicy. Since we’re habituated with less spicy food we’d problems initially. However, we’re well accustomed now.”
When asked if the band has any future plan to visit India again, Noel quipped: “We’ve had a proposal from an Indian musical group. We’ve a plan to visit India again. We’re happy to have received such a proposal.”
The band has been sponsored by Bonjour India.
