Gorillaz FTL

Mi-am mai adaugat o formatie la lista concertelor la care am fost, mai exact una dintre formatiile mele preferate: Gorillaz.

Doar ca nu a fost ce ma asteptam. A fost Gorillaz Soundsystem adica vreo 2 dj din trupa si vreo 2 tobosari. Proiectiile nu s-au ridicat nici ele la asteptarile mele.

Dar sa incepem cu inceputul. Am ajuns pe la 23:30 la Sala Polivalenta unde nu era coada deloc la bilete in schimb era o coada imensa la invitatii. Cum eram trecuta pe lista, am stat la acea coada imensa vreo jumatate de ora. Concertul Gorillaz a inceput pe la 12 fara 15, eu am intrat abia pe la 12. Am prins vreo 2-3 piese cunoscute: Last Living Souls, Clint Eastwood si inca una dar apoi oamenii au trecut la a mixaaaaa nimic altceva decat Madonna, Eric Prydz si Black Eyed Peas. CUM? DECI CUUUM?! M-am dus asteptandu-ma sa aud niste muzica underground si dau de Call On Me a lui Eric Prydz. Dezamagitor. Iar proiectiile au fost parti din videoclipuri si niste negri pusi pe repeat. Dezamagitor.

Apoi a intrat si Underworld care canta okey dar scena arata oribil. Se vedeau 4 monitoare gigantice si tot felul de alte instrumente si langa toate acestea era un tip cu o geaca argintie plina de sclipici care mai avea si miscari disco totul pe fundal de techno. Spre final a fost mai okey, atat proiectiile cat si muzica dar nu m-a dat pe spate.

Pe Dubfire nu l-am mai ascultat, m-am dus sa beau :)).

In alta ordine de idei, am ajuns sa ador chinezaaa! Nu stiu cum sau de ce dar imi place mult <3. Poate si pentru ca am luat singurul 10 din grupa?! No idea, dar imi place mult si asta conteaza. De engleza insa nu-s prea incantata... Fac fonetica si la literatura IAR Shakespear. M-am plictisit de el si prefer sa desenez niste semne la chineza decat sa citesc iar Hamlet si Macbeth. Ma rog...

Ma pun sa ma uit la un film chinezesc - Written By, can't wait <3.

Massive Attack in Romania

THEY WERE HERE. And I was there.

Amazing concert with incredible sounds and political messages personalized - in a way - for our country. I have no words to describe the amazing atmosphere created there.

The lead-singer's voice went directly to my soul and the melange of instruments was perfect! Listening to those songs live was an incredible opportunity and I suggest everyone to go to Massive Attack's concerts if they have the possibility because it's an ideal concert indeed and you can't really get it irrespective how well someone describes it for you unless you are there...

What was more incredible for me was the after party @ Fabrica. I was dancing on Gojira's music, and heard all sorts of rumours that the components of Massive Attack were going to be there. "Pfff", I was thinking, "right. Like they're really gonna come here.". BUT THEY HAVE!

Talking to Xi at one moment of the night, she suddenly stopped talking and was acting as if she couldn't breathe anymore when... I turned. To my surprise, Daddy G WAS THERE! At about 1 metre away from us! Unfortunately, he wasn't feeling so well so he left. But my brother, Vania, told us to come in the last room from Fabrica where the last of the members were there!! For about 3 hours we were in a dream. Talking to the lead singer about animals, music and common things was unreal... All the members were so sociable, and so detached, and so... no further comments. Not only do they have great talent and are so popular but acting so common was a real surprise! I know they're people but knowing all sorts of other artists... it was amazing!

They were also pleasantly surprised by the mass of romanian people who came to see them live. They didn't expect the concert to be such a succes. To finish up, they were pretty impressed by the people here compared to Britain.

Martina Topley Bird was also there, a really cute girl with a great voice. I didn't catch her whole show but I was impressed by her last 15 minutes. Great show and again... really sociable.

Actually, I don't know any other worldwide-known bands who would come to after parties in an ex-FACTORY.

All in all, it was an unreal night!

PS: If any of the photographers who were at the after party is reading this, do leave me a message cause I completely forgot to ask where I can get those photos :).

PPS: Sorry for the repeating of some words but I'm still too numb to think or react.
