Background

Following the 9/11 attacks, Junoon helped to organise a concert at the General Assembly on UN Day with Junoon and an Indian group performing at the Assembly Hall, a first of its kind. They also released their what they called their first English-language single, "No More", an anti-violence song which deals directly with the events of that day. Three days later, Junoon performed live and sang songs from their previous albums and those were included in this live album.

gollark: Your *phone*?

gollark: The partition my bot's database is on apparently has 100GB free.

gollark: My thing stores all its data in a single SQLite3 database which is apparently 32KB.

gollark: The only thing I have which stores data associated with a particular user is the `++remind` command, and I feel like people shouldn't set reminders if they don't want their user ID stored with them.

gollark: For most you can probably get away with manually handling requests.
