What can one do in Bangalore? thank God for Television. Or maybe until I turn it off I won't have a clue about what to do. My hyperactive reading phase tapered off in Oct/Nov. Though I renewed my library membership I found myself less and less inclined to read. It wasn't a loss of appetite, but merely the weight of several other things that weighed in to overwhelm that appetite and replace it with a kind of phlegmatic suspension.
Most people who I know know how much I love LOTR. I'm ploughing my way through pages 600-700 and these are the parts with loads of dialogue from Smeagol or Gollum. Just brilliantly written. No idea what I'd read afer that. Read most of Hamlet on 2 flights but it fatigued me after a while. I'm convinced it helped increase my IQ though ... reading those difficult passages and thinking about what the antiquated english means certainly can do wonders into firing a few more new neurons.
As far as music is concerned I gave Comfortably Numb a shot and it sounds so beautiful on my new guitar. Haven't yet found the inclination to record it though.

Have you read any of Alice Bailey books?
Nope,never heard of her
Ohhh she has written books for Theosophical Society. But they are Spiritual books...Not everyone wud find interest in such books.
Added her books are not easy to follow. Deep profound Spiritual knowledge in tough English. I am making my first attempt to read Treatise on White Magic.
If I can manage it, I will challenge myself with HP Blavasky's books. Her books are tough poems to be cracked. Like you rightly mentioned, if not anything, it can bring some latent brain cells to life...:)
