Yes, <keyword id="6428354" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Chris-Martin">Chris Martin</keyword> was in Delhi and yes you missed his impromptu gig at Summerhouse Café in Delhi. 
 It was a typical case of an owner’s pride and neighbour’s envy when a usual Wednesday night turned into one of the most happening ones as <keyword id="34647" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Coldplay">Coldplay</keyword>’s Chris Martin walked into the bar and played songs- Viva la vida, and Paradise. 
 
Lucky ones termed it as a moment of a lifetime and clicked pictures with the international star, who was at the café with All India Bakchod’s Tanmay Bhat, actress Freida Pinto, singers Vishal Dadlani, Raghu Dixit and men from comedy collective.

The gig was arranged in 10 minutes by the café as it was not a planned one. Kudos to Summerhouse Café as it arranged for bouncers, sound mixing console and other works within 10 minutes. 
 
So what if international artists like Adam Levine of Maroon 5, Mark Ronson, Hardwell, turn up at your café, will you be ready? 
 
We list for you 5 bars that promise to be ready under 30 minutes to host a gig by an international star. Ensure you regular these watering holes more often now, just in case someone decided on an impromptu gig!

This cookery and drinkout missed out on Martin by a whisker but says it will be ready in no time to host a gig by an international star. 
“We are lined up with best console and arrangements and will take us not more than 6-7 minutes to be prepared for a gig like Martin did. We already have Nikhil Chinapa playing for us and would love to have Axwell playing for us,” said co-owner of Backyard, Anukool Kumar. 
 
Hard Rock Café, Select City Walk 
 
 
Organising a last minute show is relatively very easy as we have a huge database of experienced musicians who can play at a moment’s notice, the café claimed. 
 
It was honest enough to say that they would take some time for sound check and backline but on a confirmed note it informed, “30 minutes is more than enough.” 
 
Café Delhi Heights, Select City Walk 
 
 
 
Owner Vikrant Batra is also confident that Delhi Heights will organise any gig within 30 minutes. 
"We are equipped with latest technology and operational efficiency and many times such impromptu events shape up better than many well planned ones. It not only adds to the surprise element for the customers present at the restaurant, it also gives them a reason to come back to the restaurant and reminisce the enjoyment,” said Batra. 
 
Café Terminus 1, Vasant Kunj 
 
When contacted, this café too gave a thumbs up and claimed to be prepared within half an hour. 
 
Rodeo, Connaught Place 
 
Rishi Kumar, General Manager at Rodeo, said that they are always ready with basic requirements like sound set-up and security. “In case of any celebrity playing, we need to be extra cautious due to huge popularity. Once the guidelines are understood, any special requirements by artists can also be addressed without any hassle within 30 minutes,” he added.

His job and identity have been verified by Business Insider. It's been edited for length and clarity.I first moved to Miami from Cape Town, South Africa, when I was 13 years old.I grew up in the US and expected to spend my life there. But when I graduated from college around 2009, the market collapsed and I decided to take a job teaching English in Mongolia while I figured out my career.I always thought I would return to the US when the economy picked up. But when I visited my brother, who was staying in Lithuania at the time, I met my future wife. I took another contract teaching job in Taiwan temporarily and then <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/brazil-lithuania-move-career-safety-progression-make-friends-2024-1">ended up returning to Lithuania</a>.Now, 12 years later, I'm working as a senior director of communications at <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/omnisend-scales-its-global-footprint-with-a-strategic-expansion-in-north-america-1028820247">Omniscend</a> and I'm raising my two daughters here. I've thought about returning to the US a few times — but ultimately, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/lithuania-happiest-place-on-earth-under-30s-what-its-like-2024-7">I decided to stay in Vilnius</a>. Here's why.<h2 id="a8b8ca83-f470-4670-afac-17d0ab7b1bcb">The work-life balance is great</h2>I wasn't sure about what kind of career I wanted when I first moved to Vilnius — but I was sure I had no big plans.Living outside the US gave me a sense of mental freedom. Living abroad helped minimize my thoughts about what everyone else was doing, which gave me a stronger sense of what I wanted to do in life.<div type="image" title="Bernard Meyer sitting with coworkers and pointing to a Mac screen" height="4000" width="6000" msid="112247398" hostid="261" sizebytes="1689680"></div><a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/life-in-europe-improving-american-workers-mental-and-physical-health-2023-7">The work-life balance is also great</a>. At my company, and in Lithuania in general, people respect the fact that you need to be present at home and take vacations. When employees request vacation here, I always approve it, and I don't bother them when they're off.<h2 id="40913fec-68e8-4797-85b4-9988f24e3554">Life feels more stable here</h2>Stability was one of the main reasons I decided to stay in Lithuania. When I first considered going back to the US after my contract in Taiwan, the US had started to experience some of the school shootings that have since increased.For the most part, I find there's a sense of calm here, and it's a relaxing place.<div type="image" title="Bernard Meyer and his wife and two kids" height="1080" width="1440" msid="112247393" hostid="261" sizebytes="239868"></div>I've also a deep appreciation for nature. In Lithuania, it's common to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/why-lithuania-happiest-country-young-people-from-local-2024-6">own more than one house, and it's not expensive</a>. When I go to my summerhouse, I remove myself from all the tech gadgets that I use at work or home, and just focus on landscaping or woodworking projects. I'm able to be fully present in my surroundings.<h2 id="c3442548-169a-4351-ae31-b909e061a99b">Some things I'll never get used to</h2>In Vilnius, there's a central location where people walk, people watch, sit at cafes, and drink coffee. I'm not used to sitting and doing nothing. In the past, I would go to the movies, go clubbing, or go to some other destination. But here, people just chill.One thing I can't understand is taking a walk without a purpose. My wife likes to walk just to walk, and I can't understand it conceptually. I need a purpose and a destination.I'm not sure if I'll stay here forever. The US offers great college education and there's a strong sense of ambition, which I would want my kids to experience when they're older. But other aspects of living in the US, like the political situation and cost of healthcare, make me want to stay here.

I moved to Lithuania from the US. Life feels more stable here, and I have a better work-life balance.
