Actually, NYU Bhangra was also invited, but then told they wouldn't be able to perform.

Yea...but then they were told there were some "security issues." I guess they just chose Empire over them?

VCU would have been perfect for this, close to the area and such an entertaining folk team! I wonder who did the research...

This is huge!! Congrats Empire! It's a big step for our bhangra community as a whole... so let's not get into which team deserves it the most (or pull out the traditional vs modern debate in this topic).

Can someone please record this or obtain footage from this event? I would think it would be covered by large media groups, so let's hope we can get some online links to the content. I would love to see this.

I'm sure Empire will bring a lot of creativity to this special performance.

All the best,

OBAMA COME TO ELITE 8!!!!!!!

 

[Varun]

Obama wouldnt know traditional bhangra but PM Singh would, his wife is a Punjabi History expert!

 

[KingGeorge]

I hope they do a mean-ass sher about Sarah Palin.

Obama wouldnt know traditional bhangra but PM Singh would, his wife is a Punjabi History expert!

Hopefully PM singh, being the bhangra enthusiast that he is, who watches youtube vids of teams, doesn't get up halfway through their performance and say "I TOLD YOU TO GET VCU!!!"....jkkkkkkkkkk again haha.

OBAMA COME TO ELITE 8!!!!!!!

Obama needs to be a guest speaker at Elite... Kal Penn should be a back up speaker if we can't get Obama... We could probably go through Kal to get to Obama, he's part of his staff... I've posted the contact information below... This is the department Kal Penn works in... ELITE, make it happen!
