Michael Angelo Batio to headline IIT Guwahati’s Alcheringa

Mike Batio, lead guitarist for the glam metal band Nitro, and better known as the guitarist who was voted ‘No. 1 Shredder of All Time’, has just been announced as the headliner for IIT Guwahati‘s cultural fest ‘Alcheringa‘. He is said to perform on the fourth night of the festival- Juggernaut, on the 2nd of February 2014.

What’s even better is that the passes are absolutely free! Those interested can pick them up from Baskin Robbins at AIDC, Zoo Road, Guwahati.

MAB is currently on his ‘Hands without Shadows- A Tribute to Rock Guitar’ tour.

Here’s a video of the guitar gymnastics he’s famous for:

Orphaned Land return to our land

 

Israeli progressive metal giants Orphaned Land will be playing 2 dates in India in February:

 

– 5th February at  the Alcheringa Festival at IIT Guwahati, Assam

– 7th February at the QBA Club in New Delhi

This is yet another example of metal bands returning to play in India, therefore placing our country quite prominently on the world metal map as a tour venue. Make sure you’re there for the never-ending ways of these warriors.
