Ima Robot in Mexico

The past tuesday I got one of the best news in my life, Ima Robot comes to Mexico!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Incredible, I never thought those guys would come for this year.

They played at "Septimo Piso" (7th floor)
The sponsor for this event were "Revista Marvin", it's a magazine about music, I'll be buying many of their issues, then I'll tell you more about them.

I got 2 tickets free by Reactor 105.7 a radio station from Mexico City, they play rock and many alternative bands that are beginning, it's just fine but it could be better.

Now, about the concert, WOW it was incredible, those guys are exceptional, they turn all the people on just showing off in the scenario. All of them were great. The first song was (if I'm not wrong) "Dynomite" wwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaa, after the first minute two guys began a fight between them, hey, they really hurt one to another I just see their faces and mouths bleeding in excess, my friend was freaked about it but then the party get better.

I cannot remember very well the set-list but I'm pretty sure they played the following songs (please ignore the order :-P ):

Dynomite (the beginning)
Alive
Disconnect
STD Dance
Dirty life
Let's talk turkey
12 = 3 (Here come the doctors)
Here come the bombs
Creeps me out
Eskimo ride
Lovers in captivity (The last one)

Aditionally they played two new songs, Alex Ebert said that one of those comes in a new realese for June.

I couldn't take too much pictures (it was a playing that I enjoyed instead of taking blog details :-P ), I share the best ones that I could take.















Finally this is the flyer that was used to promote this event by 7th floor.




Guys of Ima Robot really roooooooock!!!!!!!! and I hope you come back to Mexico soon.

New Discs to enjoy a Long Weekend

Last Thursday and Friday were holidays in Mexico so that I decided to buy new discs to enjoy it at home (there are too many people outside Mexico City and every beach and tourist place has a lot of tourist from Mexico City, it's not a good time to have vacations if you really want to rest :-P hehehehe).

I bought the following:
The Greatest - Cat Power







Teatro Metropólitan - Ely Guerra (Special edition 2 discs)







Sonamos Pese a Todo - Les Luthiers








All of them are good choices for a quiet weekend, specially Ely Guerra and Cat Power on the other hand if you want to have a funny weekend you should listen Les Luthiers, they are from Argentina and unfurtunately you need to have a good understanding of spanish if you want to get all their pranks, I wrote about them a time ago in Spanish and in English (you can see videos in the spanish section).

About the concert.

It was AWESOME, AMAZING, something never seen by me. The second song (I don't remember the first one) was "Liberty Bell", Anneke was simply TERRIFIC, wow, her voice and her energy in communication with all of us was incredible. The sounds, emotions and waves.

There are no words for this concert only INCREDIBLE.

I hope you guys have enjoyed this concert as much as we did.

Two thumbs up for The Gathering.

The Gathering in Mexico

I know that I have not written for a while, but I have had many pendings that couldn't wait more :-S

Here we go:

March 16th, 2007
The Gathering in Mexico City!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of my favorites bands is The Gathering, a band that is associated with Dark, Metal, Doom Metal and similar, currently it's a band of Progessive rock, Alternative rock and Ambient music.

They are from Netherlands, their sound and image is pretty singular, that's why they are a best band from this world :-).

Their current members are:
Anneke van Giersbergen - lead singer/guitars
René Rutten - guitars / flute
Marjolein Kooijman - bass
Hans Rutten - drums
Frank Boeijen - keyboards

Their first album was released in 1992, its name is: Always..., but in the second half of 1990's they came to fame, at the same time as Anneke van Giersbergen joined the band and honestly, she is a milestone for this band, they were completed up to her arrived.

Up to date they have 8 studio albums:
Always...1992
Almost a dance1993
Mandylion1995
Nighttime Birds1997
How to measure a planet?1998
if then else2000
Souvenirs2003
Home2006


If you look for them at Wikipedia you'll get more information.

About the concert, it was soooooooooooooooo AMAZING, there are no enough words to describe all the emotions and feelings that I felt that night, René Rutten was amazing at the guitars, Hans Rutten played so perfect, Frank Boeijen at the background and with an important part of the whole concert, Marjolein Kooijman was so expledid at the bass now she is one of my favorites bass ;-), and Anneke van Giersbergen was so AWESOME on both singing and playing the guitar, she is so pretty, beautiful and has a sign that can freeze and enchant everybody, if you don't believe me just take a look to the following picture and you'll understand what I'm talking about.



All of them look like enjoyed the concert as much as we did.


unfortunately I don't have time to post any more about this concert, just give me a couple of days, and I'll post pictures about it.
