Gig Review: March Metal Mania (Bangalore)

Bangalorean metalheads must surely remember March Metal Mania, back in 2007. The show had a great line-up of bands and a great turnout of fans. Like any other successful show, there were rumours that it would be a monthly occurrence, which then changed to an annual event. This is what really happened- after March 2007, March Metal Mania happened again in April 2009.
