Viaje al Fondo del Mar

Posted by Menzo on June 16, 2008 at 1:54pm

Imposible me resulta no imaginarme bajando en lo profundo del océano al escuchar Weird Fishes/Arpeggi. Quizás sea por la atmósfera y los sonidos marinos que me hacen vagar entre espuma, burbuja y agua salada. Para algunos sea la canción más característica de la esencia del grupo, la onda depresiva. Para mi, al contrario, resulta ser liberadora.Un viaje interrumpido, pues Thom apreta el botón y escapa... ¿por qué arrepentirse? ¿por qué volver a la superficie? Tal como en There There, donde siempre hay una sirena esperando que choquemos, esos ojos penetrantes bajo el mar nos invitan a bajar como embobados. Pero hay escape, hay vuelta atrás. Si todos tienen la oportunidad ¿por qué nosotros no?En Bodysnatchers parecía no haber vuelta atrás. Nadie se daba cuenta de que estábamos vivos y nos creían cuerpos inertes. Acá parece existir chance.Pero ¿de qué nos podríamos salvar? ¿de quién podrían ser esos ojos? A pesar de que sea un disco más explícito en temas de amor o pareja, no creo que esta canción lo sea. Pareciera ser una cerradura por abrir, una clave por descifrar. En el fondo del océano.

Me my Savior

Darkness Suppresses meImages lunge out of the ShadowsThis infernal darkness flows into my heartMaking me fearfulThere snickering smiles and evil laughter frighten meI reach out to touch one of there facesTo my surpriseThis isn't My imaginationIt is RealI'm trapped in this never ending voidNo escapeNo lightIn this darkness there are no FriendsOnly foesThese fiends have the faces of my supposed friendsIn the middle of this chaosI see a glowing faceIt is my LuciferLike a grain of sand in this ocean of darknessI focus on the FaceIt is me

yes, I went all in and bought a pair of PIT TIX for Toronto - and that's what I paid. I've tried and failed doing it every other, more reasonable way - so there.

This groundbreaking event has been named Independence Concert and was launched today in Kiev by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation. Paul’s special show will be free to attend and will be broadcasted live on Novy TV.This exciting event will be seen as symbolic for several generations of Ukrainians. It will allow people of different ethnicities and religions, political preferences and geopolitical orientations to come together around the ideas of peace, love and unity; the very ideas that Paul McCartney with The Beatles helped bring into the World. Independence Concert is an independent social initiative that aims to strengthen the confidence and understanding in the Ukrainian society.The ideology and spirit of The Beatles helped build the democratic aspirations for much of the soviet society and eventually led to the peaceful collapse of the USSR and independence of the former Soviet republics.Independence Concert appeals to the ideals that helped 30 years ago to melt down the ice of the ‘cold war’ in the hearts of millions and changed the world into a better place. Today the ideology that forms the core of Ukrainian independence is shared with Paul McCartney’s own ideology. Independence Concert serves to promote happiness, freedom, love and peace not only in the Ukraine but also to the entire World.It is planned that this historic concert will be broadcast live on screens in cities across the Ukraine for those who can’t make it to Kiev.Paul McCartney said:"I’m very excited because on the 14th of June I've been invited to play a concert in Independence Square, Kiev. Me and the band are going to be there and we’re going to have to a great evening and we hope to see you there. So come along, it’s going to be great evening hopefully for the Ukraine. Pull together, groove, rock and roll – all together"Victor Pinchuk, Ukrainian businessman and philanthropist and founder of the Victor Pinchuk Foundation said:“One could not imagine this 30 years ago. Nobody could even dare to hope for this 20 years ago. One could only dream about it 10 years ago. 5 years ago we could only envy our neighbours for whom this became a reality. And finally the day has come. For the first time we have the opportunity to hear the songs that changed the world and created a new culture. The songs that we grew up with and became who we are.These songs tell us about very simple but nevertheless important things: real love can’t be bought and that real friendship can’t be sold. There is much more to what unites people than what divides them, and in reality it’s not an impossible task to become a better person and to make the world a better place, especially if you do it all together.Recently, we had not so many reasons to unite. Not to group under some political flags but to really gather all together. There are not so many ways to bring together the East and the West, to make the young and the mature closer, to combine different convictions and aspirations into one common national idea of building a free, tolerant and prosperous country. And I believe that this initiative and the concert can help us"In addition to the concert the Victor Pinchuk Foundation will also be exhibiting 40 of Paul's paintings at the Pinchuk Art Centre, the largest in Eastern Europe. This will be Paul’s first exhibition in this part of the world. His first art exhibition was in Siegen, Germany in 1999. Paul will personally open the exhibition.http://www.nme.com/news/paul-mccartney/37366Paul McCartney performed in front of 350,000 people in Kiev tonight (June 14), the largest audience for a gig Ukraine has ever seen.The former Beatle and his band performed a mammoth 33-song set in the capital's Independence Square, playing songs including 'Drive My Car', 'Blackbird', 'Penny Lane' and 'Hey Jude'.McCartney also performed a number of songs from his solo career and his time with Wings, such as 'Jet', 'C Moon', 'Dance Tonight' and 'Mrs Vanderbilt', the latter of which fans had petitioned for.The gig was simultaneously broadcast on giant screens in six other Ukrainian cities and on television, with an estimated 10 million people watching.After performing a number of encores, McCartney finished the set with 'Yesterday' and 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'.Paul McCartney played:'Drive My Car''Jet''All My Loving''Only Mama Knows''Flaming Pie''Got To Get You Into My Life''Let Me Roll It''C Moon''My Love''Let 'Em In''The Long And Winding Road''Dance Tonight''Blackbird''Calico Skies''I'll Follow The Sun''Mrs Vanderbilt''Eleanor Rigby''Something''Good Day Sunshine''Penny Lane''Band On The Run''Birthday''Back In The USSR''I Got A Feeling''Live And Let Die''Let It Be''Hey Jude''A Day In The Life/Give Peace A Chance''Lady Madonna''Get Back''I Saw Her Standing There''Yesterday''Sgt.

on a thin threadwith the beads falling toward the centerI twist the necklace around, spiralingwith your face a blur in the backgroundand your eyes mirrored,blinking without careyet it all seems intentionallike Haruki said, for the time beingI listen to the air whirand colors zoom in and out from the corners of my eyesblocks of fuzz stain my viewas gentle melodies crawl in tiny pockets with the windand life becomes slow motion,sunken in,enveloped between your lips.

Radiohead Barcelona Setlist

Posted by Comfis on June 13, 2008 at 10:30am

Hello again!Here is the Radiohead Barcelona Setlistthere was a huge confusion because some sources said that no4 was a super collider full band performance, other said that no4 was Subterannean homesick alien and other insisted that no4 Airbag and no24 was Planet Telex. AtEase, Morgiti Tempo and many bloggers had a different setlist posted, but now i believe it is pretty clear

ridiculous.

luke and i took our first vacation together in TWO YEARS this last week/weekend. i got work off to go to fresno for my baby brother's high school graduation last thursday and my boss was sweet enough to give me the rest of the weekend off. so luke and i planned a last minute lil get away to the central coast directly after we left fresno.all great in theory, but not so much in execution. we arrived in cambria midday, settled into our room at the inn, and set off to take a walk through the east and west villages.20 minutes later, we had pretty much seen all there was to see and headed back to our room. on our way home, we did a wine tasting at this cute little place where, i'm quite certain the proprietors had been "tasting" glass for glass along with all their patrons throughout the day. very entertaining. we did get a nice bottle of merlot to take home with us.the next day, we had breakfast at a place recommended to us by a friend. after enjoying our meal, we decided we were all done with exploring cambria, so we took a drive south on hwy 1, first stopping in cayoucos at a very hip coffee house called o'neills that had just installed an art display by a couple of local artists, lacking any real walls in the corrugated metal structure of the shop, constructed their own walls of plain dry wall material and covered them with some pretty awesome murals. other great paintings were also hung on those walls.after enjoying a cuppa, we went to morro bay and luke saw morro rock for the first time. finding that we were completely not in the mood for the uber-touristy scene we encountered, we drove a lap around the town and moved on. plus, that place has this awful thing they call an aquarium which is really just a shallow container smaller than a lap pool that poorly accomodates two large sealions. inhumane.we moved further down the coast to avila beach and were greeted by an awful cover band whose average age sounded about 42 years....and then we saw them. the average quickly went down to 22. horrific really. plus this town was so very southern california beach party (appealing to some, not really to me). we stayed long enough to find a public restroom, relieve ourselves and move further south on hwy 1.we next stopped in pismo beach thinking, what the heck, let's get tattoos after a late lunch. we ate at the splash cafe and then went to tiger rose tattoo to see if there were any walk-in appointments available for the rest of the day. finding that we would likely have to wait about 2 hours, we decided to just head back to cambria and perhaps order in and have a romantic evening.but on the drive back to cambria, luke suggested that we go see a movie since we never do at home. fun! i texted google and got a few showtimes. we settled on the new indiana jones which was playing in morro bay. funny enough, we discovered a tiny little theatre which was ONLY showing indiana jones on its one screen. we caught the final showing of the night. which started at 7:00. really.i was a little uncomfortable throughout the movie, but also, i couldn't stop shoveling popcorn into my mouth. ah, movie theatre popcorn. mmm...on the drive home, i still wasn't feeling so great, but i just figured it was being in the car all day and perhaps the popcorn. luke made us each a crown and coke for a nightcap when we got into our room and we settled into bed. i fell asleep pretty quickly.and i woke up almost as quickly with an awful stomach ache. it was about 4:30 am and after about half an hour, i forced myself back to sleep in spite of my tummy pains. then at 5:30 am i woke up again, unable to ignore the pains anymore. i went to the toilet and was promptly very, very sick. i actually broke a some capillaries around my eyes because i was throwing up so badly.i cleaned myself up and returned to bed. poor luke, of course, had to listen to it all since it's such a small--cozy?--hotel room. we had scheduled a tour of hearst castle for 11:20 am and at this point, i thought i had food poisoning but could sleep off the ill effects and be ready to go later that day. i took a shower to try and feel better, but then crawled back into bed. luke called and rescheduled our tour for 3:20 pm and went out to get me saltines, pellegrino and pepto bismol.i'm a lucky girl.around 2:30, i rolled out of bed, put on a hat and pulled on my shoes (i had gone into bed almost fully dressed for the day). i drove us up to the visitor center at hearst castle for fear that i might get car sickness on top of my weak stomach. i was totally optimistic that we would have a great tour, and great rest of the weekend for that matter.i forgot about the winding 5 mile drive up the hill to hearst castle in a crowded tourbus. luckily i got an aisle seat close to the front so i could keep my eyes on the road.we arrived at the tour start point and i made it through about 1/3 of the tour. then i started to feel dizzy. luke had to ask the tour guide (who was an awesome and entertaining tour guide) to get someone to take us outside. once we were escorted by another staff member to an elevator, this young and somewhat bro-ish staff member looked at me and said,"aw, you're not pregnant are you?" so now, not only am i feeling awful, but now i can't get that out of my head until i took a test to prove otherwise.i kept feeling worse and worse and finally another staff member named dustin, who i think must have been an EMT came to take us to a courtyard to await transportation back down the hill. i started to get numb in my fingers and toes. bad times. dustin took us down the hill in a van, thankfully. i'm not sure another boat-like bus ride down the hill would have been the best thing for me.once we got back to our truck, i laid down across the bench seat and luke went inside to get me a sprite. after awhile, i felt like i would be able to survive the short drive back to cambria. when we got back into our room, i went directly into bed and tried to sleep it off. but i was freezing.so, i sent luke to take a walk and go enjoy himself as best as he could. i figured i now had a fever and wasn't suffering from food poisoning as i thought, but the stomach flu.luke brought me back some food and i took about 3 bites and took a swig of pepto. the rest of the evening was spent watching the princess bride and stand by me. my fever broke around 2 am.checkout was at 11am the next morning, so we got up, showered, packed our things and checked out. we grabbed a breakfast to go and got on the road. we did enjoy a lovely but winding drive north on highway 1. the ocean was almost hawaii blue in some areas. los padres took our breath away and big sur was lovely. but i did have to ask luke to drive slowly through the curves because my stomach was still weak. when we finally arrived home, it was hotter in santa cruz than any of the places we visited the whole weekend. we unloaded and i took a nap.i definitely got some much needed rest and lots of time with luke on my 5 days off, but not at all in the way i imagined. what a bummer.

Paris gigs

Posted by Jeanette Parker on June 11, 2008 at 7:30pm

Just came back from Paris - the 2 gigs were crazy, especially the second one! We managed the first row, and it was very impressive - 18'000 people behind you! Here's a little "best of" of night 2, wich will stay printed in my mind for a loooong time -- Airbag: fantastic, Jonny played like a god- 15 Steps: powerful!- Just: was so good to hear it! souded great, and everyone seemed to be singing along, but it was nice, was not spoiling (too much) Thom's performance- Pyramid song: ... I don't find the words... magic would be the best one- National Anthem: super powerful! played with such an energy and precision, and the red lights really made you feel like being on an other planet - or maybe in heaven??- How to disappear completely - beautiful- Idioteque: awesome!!- ... and so many othersGot out of there completely stunned, it was the best gig in my life, big up to the great five! En français on appelle ça une tuerie!And it's addictive, I can't wait for Glasgow, Werchter & Berlin!... (and then???)
