Il A Fait Boum Live 21.11

3rd gig. This time in 4 of us..

Happy birthday Sara!

MASSIVE RESPECT

Lately I was almost forgotting why I love so much this band…

Busy on December 5th?

250k Italian Facebook users has generated this message, and will shout it out loudly in Rome, December 5th, without the support of any political party / movement.

I already joined. If you think Berlusconi is a menace you should do the same!

Damages: trust no one

This is our new, intoxicating tv addiction.. Great characters, great story, devastating edit rythm (take “24″ and apply it to the lawyers’ world using 1000 times better actors).

And remember this great learning: TRUST NO ONE.. Well, with one exception: thanks to Cecilia, who gave us the advise to watch this drama.

Damages

 

We’ve just went over Season 2… What a great story.. While I wait for Season 3  I think I’ll apply for any kind of job at Sterling & Cooper..

Have you ever felt misunderstood by society?

Have you ever found shelter and inspiration inside some kind of music?

Have you ever thought you were at home each time you got inside that rock club or your local ‘indie’ record store?

Have you ever searched for some missing LPs like Indiana Jones or Sherlock Holmes?

Have you ever had one specific moment in your life where all your ‘alternative heroes’ were junkies, alcoholics, dirty, macho, aggressive, narcisistic, rotten rock losers?

Have you ever felt “different” from the rest of the world, for all of these reasons?

Well, I had, many times.. And now I look around and for many reasons (internet, mtv, music industry, me getting older) I find pretty difficult to meet people (some friends excluded) with whom I can share the same passion and attitude.

That’s why I recommend this book, because it talks about me, exactly like “High Fidelity” by Nick Hornby, or “Despero” or “Colui che gli dei vogliono distruggere” by Gianluca Morozzi.

Maybe in English could be better, but the adaptation by ISBN is rather good!

I used to love Kings Of Leon. That’s why I think these kids are REAALLLY interesting, way better than the Followill brothers.. better guitar sounds, fresher approach, even if the vintage factor is still dominant.

Can’t miss it

Silvio Go Away (4)

The prophecy…

Silvio Go Away (3)

I will keep my blog hostage of Berlusconi until the alarm turns from red to orange.. This man is ridicolous to many, and it’s fair enough to paint it like a funny carachter (i.e. in this British tv program). Yet to me he is more and more a serious threat to our democracy…

Silvio Go Away (2)

Join the movement!

We will get the result D’Alema and Veltroni never reached (may God or Satan punish them forever for this).

The Lady Of The Fields

As I already said I have an old, dear friend of mine, Meri, who happens to be a farmer.

A real farmer, with a farm tractor, a field full of different vegetables, a calendar of sowing and harvest, blisters in the hands and local farm markets to attend with her products corner.

She is our supplier of fresh fruits and vegetables, and throughout these last two years we gathered together 5 couples interested in her “cassetta”: me+Sara, Tozamas, Eva and Mumù, Eva’s parents, Fulvia + Teo.

Last Saturday we paid our homage to our Lady of the Fields by helping her in sowing the cabbages.. then we literally assaulted her kitchen for a serious hunger attack (you know, countrylife..)

Lovely!

Here the complete Flickr recap

I became godfather of Filippo Galli, who you already met in this blog.

Thanks to Eva and Mumù for asking me this. I’ll take it seriously, promised!

Two great musical comebacks

Yo La Tengo – Popular Songs

Kings Of Convenience – Declaration Of Dependence

Oh Lord of rock, we thank you so much ’cause we are only ordinary human beings who humbly try to produce music, and you keep on giving us inspiration and light from such extra-ordinary talents!

And we pay you homage by letting us experiencing this gift live:

Oct 29th: Kings Of Convenience Live in Milan

Nov 28th: Yo La Tengo Live in Florence

I’ll be there, with all my faith in Rock ‘n roll.
