***28th October 2006:
After
a long gap ( since 14th Feb' 2006 ), S. W got onstage on the final "Big Gig" of the 2 months long Yamaha
RoXX fest' 2006 in Delhi. It was also the first time S.W played in Delhi since GIR- 6. Co-organised by RSJ, the concert was held at the prestigious Hamsadhwani O.T, Pragati Maidan...the
same place where GIR takes place every year. Along with 4 other kick-ass bands from Mumbai and Delhi itself, S.W was set for
the second slot on the rosterOther bands were Prestorika n' Oritus from Delhi and Scribe n' Bhayanak Maut from Mumbai.
This was also the first time the band played outstation with a keyboard
player in it's ranks. And the bass duties were handled well by a relatively newbie bassist Miwang Lepcha...possibilities
of him joining S.W as a regular member are very high after his performance there!!! The move payed
well as the band rocked all with some Maiden, Audioslave etc...along with their Originals of course.
Venue: UHamsadhwani Open Air Theater,
Pragati Maidan, Delhi.
***20th September 2006:
Immensly
impressed with "Live A Little", GREENOZONE re-released the debut album "Such A Long Time..." online thru their website. It's
absolutely free of charge in every aspect. Greenozone has already released quite a few great albums by other Indian rock bands
in the same manner before. However, with this, Still Waters becomes the first band ever, from the north-east,
to have an online release. Another major feather in the cap added to the long list of achievemants by the bad so far!!!
*** 04th September 2006:
GREENOZONE.COM
comes up with an online compilation album called "Awake and Arise", dedicated to the victims of the recent bomb-blasts in
Mumbai. "Live a little" has been selected as S.W's contribution to the album. It's the first song on the album which also
features their peers and well known Indian bands like "Them Clones" (Delhi) and "Cassini's Division" (Kolkata).
***14th February 2006:
S.W live in concert at the Misty

The first gig ever in the absence of Suman Karthak, the original
bassist. And sessions man, Tashi (from the band Mukti/Sikkim), "filling in" for him.
***28th January 2006:

Outcome:
Winner - Minor 7th/Darjeeling, Runner's Up - S.W /Gangtok

P.S: Not
to sound sour or sumthn' but...with the newest member Prayash (Drummer) experiencing the pressure(s) of performing at his
first competition ever; that too of this magnitude...25 great bands participating in one fest is no small
feat by any standards...and resultantly faltering slightly on his duty at the finals, the 2nd spot was worth
settling for. Plus, with some of the very best bands around as competitors, it was consoling enuff'!!!
