I don't give a shit what you say, but the judging was legit. Cornell Bhangra hosted an amazing event and Pao Bhangra was epic fun. Not only was the event organized, but the Pao Bhangra board went out of their way to make sure people got their stuff done but had a good fucking time. Like everyone has mentioned before, the atmosphere is more chill since there is no pressure to compete, but DAAAAAMN teams still brought it. Even the exhibition performances were fun to watch. Rochester, NTP and MIT all killed it - and YPA was simply orgasmic. Afterparty was aight, but after-afterparty was where it was at. Good times in Bumblefuck, New York.


Big ups to all the teams. Cornell Bhangra for hosting us. MIT for pre-gaming and in general being awesome. NTP for chilling/partying/winging. Rochester for post-gaming (tequila sips!) and being super clutch every single time! And Ranjit/Manna, glad I got to finally meet you two. And if anyone found my shades, let me know!

Agreed! Had so much fun at Pao, such a relaxed atmosphere, and Cornell were incredible hosts. Crowd was super responsive, and that made dancing so much more fun. My first Pao, but certainly not my last!

Pao is officially my favorite bhangra-related event... Ever. I had SUCHHHH an amazing time-I dont even have words. Thank you, Cornell Bhangra, for everything. We all had a blast.

Also, congrats to the Cornell class of '10. You guys are a great group of people, and we all valued the time we spent with you guys (since we were at how many comps together this season? lol).

Much love <3

this was my 4th pao bhangra. still the best time in the bhangra circuit, period. Arjun, you. are. the. man.

 

[Kapil]

Definitely agree. The organization was impeccable, I can't tell you how many times I had Pao people ask me if I needed anything. Big shoutout to Mihir and Arjun for being amazing

Partying with AEG, YPA, NTP, Rochester, and Cornell was just epic. WAY Too many names to shoutout haha but everyone was straight baller. I agree with Faizan (only my 2nd Pao), hands down the best time of the year.

Maybe for next year start the festivities on Thursday night!!!

Also: the DJ was awesome for playing the sher foundation 08 mix both nights. lol.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome Weekendd!!!! Honestly, the organization of Pao Bhangra must be commented on first and foremost. I cannot explain the degree to which the teams were catered to. From the second my team arrived to the moment we left, the PB committee made sure we were taken care of. Let's even forget about things related to our performance, even with general things like food, getting around, passing the boarder, etc...they were extremely helpful. I would def reccommend this event to teams! Big shout outs to Arjun and Amit for taking care of us so well and also to our homegirl Sarah!!! Cornell did it up big....thanks so much!!!

With respect to the teams...it was a blast to hang out with you guys! We all did a great job and most importantly we came together not to compete but to celebrate what we love most: Bhangra. Coming together and having a good time is what bhangra should be all about ...Special shout outs to AEG (Ankush especially for tearing it up at afterparty), MIT, Cornell, Rochester and our fellow Torontonians YPA.

Thanks again Pao Bhangra Committee and teams for a great time! ;D

AHH where to start....possibly one of the best bhangra weekendss of this entire year...Its my first time at pao and to dance with no stress of worrying about judges/competitions is a COMPLETELY different feel. For anyone who hasn't i would highly suggest you try to experience pao at least once in your lifetime...

The show itself was INCREDIBLE...MIT, it was nice to meet all of you guys that i did...i enjoyed seeing your set for the first time ...AEG...do i even need to say anyhting? You guys killed it like you always do even with the wrong mix being played on stage and JOEY and SCOTTY cant wait to see u guys again...NTP always a pleasure to watch you guys...SO MUCH style and creativity...i would have loved it even if it was the same set as nation...cant wait to see u guys again....YPA - where to even start with these guys....they BLEW ME AWAY....one of the best co-ed performances ive seen this entire year, ranjit from NJ youve got so much style and grace...and i loved seing amplifier co-ed live...it seriously gave me chills...in my opinion these guys are the BEST co-ed team on the circuit...if only they performed with eachother more often....and cornell more than DESERVED the 2700 audience standing ovation...this is your show and you guys def put on a show for the crowd...but then again you always do...amit ima miss u more than ever

WAAYY too many people to shoutout tooo but u guys know who you are after party was incredibly fun...and i hope your place wasn't too messy in the morning arjun haha
