Hi Shalini -It was really great to meet you, and hang with you at dinner. I really like your singing and look forward to hearing more! All my best wishes to you and yours.
Nice to hear from you and welcome to skunkspace. :-) Things are going well here and I'm busy writing and putting together new studio for my own crazy musical indulgences. Most likely I'll be heading to Boston sometime around the end of July and you and Prasanna are included on my list of people to catch up with. Hope you guys are doing great, and salute to my man Sri Prassss for me...:-)
