Carol - I assume that you're accompanying your husband on an x visa? If so, you won't be able to legally work in India. As there's a long period of time before your visit, you may be able to arrange a sponsor for yourself.

wow! what a fast response. thanks for that. we're both able to get working visas through alan's contract as i will be his manager and sound engineer so that shouldn't be a problem. i'm starting to wonder though if i will just have to accept that i will not be working the first year and will have to find premises
after i get there then set up for the following season

I would say you definetly want to wait untill you can see the premises before you organise them. A lot of Indian restraurants in India have problems you might not be ok with, you would be best seeing them.
You may well find someone willing to rent you a restaurant when you arive. You don't need to asume you wount be working for a year

I seem to be ill most times i go out, but I think it's probably due to overwork before I arrive. Anyway, looks like we will see you when we go out in feb if yiou're there for 6 months.
