Memorable Songs from Kings Pavilion in the nineties

Remembering a rock star friend from college, my mind drifted to some songs that might be heard blaring from the worst audio system in the world,if you were to be taking a casual walk from the hostels to the departments, or at other times in the evening were chased by De's inimitable dogs or better still if you were lounging at the really hip tea-bar called Limbdi Corner. In no particular order, the King's Pavilions Top 20:

1) Children of the Damned- Iron Maiden (Magma)
2) Temple of Syrinx- Rush (Magma)

7) Panama- Van Halen (damn, what was the name of kirtikar's band?)
