Bhangra at White House? Obama Rocks!

[Surmeet1]

Bhangra Empire performed after the Orchestra. According to discussion on CNN, White House officials shut down camera's roughly 2 minutes into the Orchestra.

Regardless, hoping for short clips later!

i highly doubt anybody else was able to slip in a short recording. The white house camera was probably the only one in there. We probably wont get to see anything.

Ya, I'm sure for security, personal recording equip. was not allowed... Let's hope we get sump'n tho somehow... D:>

Pardesi, it was made clear to us we would not be able to bring any recording devices in so I'm sure Empire was not able to get any in nor would anyone else there.

pdds was asked to perform too?

 

[T-Pardesi]

yes hopefully some1 recorded it

i doubt it... especially considering the people that were there.. i doubt anyone there cared to video tape it anyway

Ya, proly knocked some pace makers outta whack...

yes, they did initially want a live team although we were told to keep the overture under wraps and private. security and privacy was unbelievably important to the individual we spoke to.

simply put, we were unwilling to compromise our morals and principles in regards to the United States Government and its involvement overseas and the United States' relation with India, particularly Punjab's farming crisis.

im really touched by your morals and principles bro, Im sure you sent out a really loud and clear message to the government on whatever they did or what they're doing (yea go ahead and bash me on how I don't know the issue) but seriously, gimme a break. What a bunch of BS.....NYU was also asked and they confirmed, why didn't they go? I heard it was because of "security issues"....do you really believe that? They were keeping their options open til Empire confirmed obviously!

 

[Dippy]

This is just badass, that is such an honor to be sitting with my <3 Obama, for all parents who said bhangra never gets you anywhere.......IN YO FACE!!!!
