Introducing Clint Cabral, Regional Manager, India
A BIG hi to everyone at THE ORCHARD (and beyond) I’m excited to be a part of the team.
I’ve been working in the music and entertainment business for the last 14 odd years. I’ve spent most of my life in Mumbai (Bombay), the soul of the entertainment business in India. My professional life has included working with music companies, dotcoms and digital content companies. I’ve always loved the music business, both the creative as well as the executive side. Apart from work, I also contribute creatively to Bollywood music, jingles, dabble in theatre and play soccer every weekend.
Cheers!
If you didn’t know they were wild, you weren’t paying attention. But wild enough to have their remaining gigs in India canceled? Wild enough to, essentially, be run out of the country by police? Now that’s impressive — even for The Black Lips. From NME :
The trouble stemmed from an incident during the band’s gig at Chennai ‘s Sir Mutha Venkatasubba Rao Concert Hall on Friday (January 23), when guitarist Cole Alexander reportedly stripped and jumped into the crowd.
According the Indian music blog Indiecision.com , Alexander then “proceeded to get back on stage and make out with the other band members”.
The band’s behaviour is said to have infuriated the tour promoters so much that they notified the Tamil Nadu Police , informing the band that the rest of the gigs had been pulled and that they would soon be arrested.
Wow, right? The band has an official letter to fans about the incident over at Vice . Um, this is awesome…
