I have a tip for you bro: You make posts that seem to attack other members and their thoughts/opinions. When you do this, take an extra 2-3 minutes and elaborate on WHY you disagree. You're explanations leave a lot of questions as to why you're saying what you're saying. I believe you have the best interest of bhangra and your peers, but you're way of expressing it is different. By explaining yourself further and making your posts a little longer will make your posts more reasonable.singhk1 said:I don't know how people can possibly say that sher was "amazing" It really needed a lot of work some constructive critcism the guy needs to work on his acsent a lot because it's a huge turn off in a performance when the beginning isn't done well it sets a tone for the beginning of the performance

B. His accent is fine.
C. There is no such thing as a true Panjabi accent, because it is spoken differently in each region. Malwa is different from Majha, which is different from Doaba. Even outside of Panjab, it is spoken differently in Harayana or even Delhi. Panjabi from Pakistan is totally different. Even different regions of Pakistan have different accents or dialects.
I am from Amritsar, and Panjabi is my first language. Based on my experience, his "accent" is totally fine. It set the correct mood and atmosphere that our team is about. Ram's stands out a bit, because he is singing, and there are specific pitches and notes that, traditionally, Panjabi singers hit in a different style. However, Ram did extremely well, and so did Pankaj.

To be honest, the Sher is a pretty good attempt, but the punjabi pronounciation does sound just a bit off at parts. For example, his pronunciation of "jithe" right at the beginning. Nonetheless, I don't expect every team to have a professional singer or something come out, so i appreciate the effort.KarnSingh said:A. Accent**

Haha True man But listen I wasn't attacking this guy I'm just saying if he had worked on his accent a more and tried to sing more fluent Punjabi it would've just made the Sher and the Performance That much better even though it was nice. Sher is real important in a bhangra performance It's basically the base of the performance.
Every Little Mistake in a Sher is Noticeable Because Everyone Is Listening to you you are the main focus that's why it has to perfected. But other than that it was entertaining performance overall
Dude When did I say the entire performance was poor? I said it would've made the performance just That Much Better if the Sher was perfected even though it was still Okay...I liked the performance so I don't know what you're talking about. The guy above me is right You guys are improving a lot performance after performance.mithu said:So according to you, the whole performance was poor because you think the sher wasnt up to your standards?
Can you show all of us what a perfect sher sounds like?
KarnSingh said:@singhk1
I understand where you are coming from. To a large extent you are right with what you said. At first it just sounded like you were unreasonably attacking someone. The only reason people got offended is because you didn't really explain your POV.
All izz well. No harm. No foul.
What do you think we can do next time?
I'll be very disappointed if you guys aren't at Bruin...siddyp said:we miss you LoveLove said:This makes me miss dancing :/
