Halloween in Toit Brew Pub in Bangalore - Best Costume Male

Vampire Getup Halloween 2013 Bangalore Toit

Halloween in India


Halloween is something very American and needless to say isn't very popular in India. However it is catching up ,thanks to the young crowd in India. Effectively Halloween is celebrated in mostly pubs and Homes, and that too isn't everywhere. Probably it would have helped if Diwali wasn't so close to Halloween.

Halloween in Bangalore


Most pubs in Bangalore Celebrate Halloween , and have quite an elaborate ambiance and decor. But the crowd that comes really dressed isn't a lot . The main reason being its very hard to find the right costume. There are pretty much no shops that have quality stuff. The few results that we get when we search for "Halloween Costumes Bangalore" are actually cheap fancy dress shops that are not worth anything. So the Best Bet is to buy them at the pub itself. 


Drinks


Toit is a Brewery and Serves its own specialty Beer. I am not quite a big fan of beer so it was a Black Dog 12 Years and the all famous Long Island Iced Tea for me.

Ambience


Toit usually gets the Halloween ambiance pretty good. There were all kinds of scary and spooky stuffs all over the Pub. Cob webs , witches, skulls and pickled Brains.

The Ambiance was brought alive by the dressed up waiters and Scary ghosts all over the Pub. There were really tall fairy and devil . But the best was a woman in white sari. She would just randomly pop up and scare the hell out of people.

My Vampire Costume


 I had chosen a vampire getup and It came together pretty well. And as luck would have it , I managed to grab the best dressed male award there. Yay. The best dressed couple were actually way more innovative and they had come as the Flintstones.  I wonder where did they manage to get those costumes unless they got it abroad or made it themselves. I wish there were some good shops selling Halloween Costumes in India.

Funniest Music Videos That Are Totally Unintentional



These are few really funny Music Videos that I have found on the internet . The best part is that they are all unintentionally hilarious. Now get some pop corn and enjoy.

  • What does the Fox Say

I am not sure if this was really intended to be funny or its just plain stupid. But if you always wondered what the Fox says then you might find yourself enlightened.




So what happens when English meets a strong Indian Accent in a house of bad lyrics. This song kind of resembles Kolaveri Di, except that Kolaveri Di was intentionally funny. 





D4NNY is a rapper and songwriter. Its pretty hard to comment about his music without offending him. Please let me know if you were able to listen to the whole song.




Benny Lava is not strictly speaking a Music Video that is funny. But this guy has come up with an absolute gem of a lyrics and that gives this Song a wildcard entry .


Here is a Youtube playlist containing all the Videos -


Do let me know any other Music Videos that you found funny. I would love to add to this list.

Canon EOS Rebel T3i / 600 D

Canon EOS Rebel T3i

I have owned a pretty good Point and Shoot and it served me pretty well . But as everyone does I too outgrew it. I needed something more powerful. I had exhausted all the manual settings available in the point and shoot and yet it felt that something was missing. 

Then I decided it was about time I entered the world of DSLRs . I wanted an entry level DSLR. A DSLR for beginners. It should be an upgrade from my point and shoot. Not too costly and yet powerful. After a good amount of research and friend recommendations I decided to go for Canon EOS Rebel T3i, also known as Canon EOS 600 D.

It has been just one day since I got it and it feels like a good decision. I have fiddled with the manual settings and obviously still learning. But here are some of the first few shots.
