It was a joke, we were never invited. I thought it was obvious I was kidding but relax everyone.
sorry man but i dont think anyone considered it to be a joke!
I just considered it massive team pump from some dude who is always ruining the mood with political awareness crap....here we are rejoicing about a bhangra team performing on an international stage, and this fool goes "but remember guys, our prez is sending 35,000 troops"...."oh we didnt go because of the farming crisis".....seriously, YES we care about the issues, but stop ruining the damn mood all the time, you don't sound intelligant. If you wanna talk about issues create a NEW thread specifically about that. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT IF YOU CARE SO MUCH.

I was actually going to PM him to talk about this whole boycott (and how to effectively express your feelings on the Indian gov't denial of the 1984 Ghallughara), but I'm disappointed.

Oh well, I guess I just saved an hour.

i dont comment much on this forum because idiots like u are so damn sensitive...
oh, really?

HarmanSingh said:
Yes. When we were initially asked to perform we were told by the White House it would not be aired on television. However, due to political differences we declined the invitation.
HarmanSingh said:
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.
HarmanSingh said:
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.
HarmanSingh said:
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.
seems like you should be lecturing your team mates about making up stories and lieing in public...

check mate

Harman,

I have been warned to keep it clean on here and I will... But congratulations on the biggest fail in BTF history... I hold a lot of honors on this forum, good and bad, but you hold the most pathetic one... From the bottom of my heart, I congratulate you on self-pumping PDDS to a degree never seen since the JATT-Bruin fiasco from last year... I am one of the most sarcastic people on here and I didn't even see a glimmer a sarcasm in any of your posts, you can spin it all you want, but man, that was classic... All of your political garbage that you bark on here will never hold the same value again...

wow vick, that was deep. Harman, you have truly represented your disbanded team to the fullest......oh and manu, unfortunately I didn't see your comment before it was removed, I was later informed of what you said. Along with harman's "joke", your attempt to "back up" your teammate has to be one of the weakest, most pitiable comebacks I've ever read. I will DEFINITELY be sure to "clean all the sand out". I really thought PDDS had more class, guess I was wrong.


......but then again at least Parul believed you!

Why would someone even wanna make up something like that? And sarcasm? Uhh this is the internet ppl, you have to make your sarcasm a little more obvious since we can only read and not see your pretty or ugly faces.

Anyhoo big ups to Empire! Who cares if it wasn't a traditional team... at least we got bhangra in the damn white house. Not many other dancers can say that about their respective dance forms.
