And after this introduction, i have to tell you one thing: i ´ve been in the Fillmore.
You don´t know what i´m talkin´about. Ohhh c´om baby. I give you a hint (a clue)
the second hint
OF COURSE, IS ONE OF THE TEMPLES OF ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC
It was found by Bill Graham in the 60´s. This is a new one, the old venue was closed long time ago and used to be near the Japan area in San Francisco. I mean, were the japan zone is nowadays.
This place remainds me of the 60´s and how the great and smart guy Bill Graham used to plan the concerts and all the rock-business before the dead of R´N´R. Yes. i´m talkin´ (writing) seriously. Well, of course is good to see the Stones still playing today worlwide, but is all for the money, folks. Don´t you remember when the 60´s came to an end and they (the hippy stablisment) decided this: "We can´t change the world, we can not change your mind either, so...... lets make money jajajajaja" And there they are, making a killing (you use that expresion when you are gambling in Vegas e.g. and you earn a lot of money (a dirty amount of money, i mean). During a free concert in California, Bono -lead singer of U2- made a grafitti in San Francisco with this statement: "Business is killing rock and roll." And i totally agree with him. But that was long time ago. Look at them now, they are rollin´ in money, arent they? sold out in every stadium they play in so....
The second best thing last wednesday was the group i went to see and listen to. MORCHEEBA. But with Skye Edwards. AWESOME. That girl..... not only she is pretty, but also -i will say above everythin- her voice is incredible. And she is cute too. Was funny because she was kidding everytime and all of us laughting during most of the concert.
They have released a new album (three months ago) and it sounds good. Here is one of the new songs. Even though. Live and acoustic for in a radio station in Paris.
And here is a tiny memorabilia of the event. The ticket.
They finished with a great song (but they play their old stuff too, everything you can imagine: The sea, Trigger hippy, Blinfold, Beat of the drum, Part of the process...). But the end was just fantastic with one of their best tunes. Here for you
PD. Just for the crazy people that are mad about music.
It´s a real interesting web to look, come across and click-pick up. Just try if you want discover something new. You chose a group and you can find it last concert, the set list and sometimes the upload live gigs too. Amazing. You can try with Morcheeba in San Francisco e.g. and enjoy the experience.
