Some of the Best Concerts in my life


In the last years, something amazing happened. All the bands that I Liked start to coming to Chile. I remember a few years ago nobody came to this country,even more the best bands. I remember when Blur came to Argentina and not to Chile (I was very angry) but thats is the past. In the two last years many bands started coming to make a concert and finally, I can see the best concerts in my life. Some of these concerts were The Chemicals Brothers (two Times!), Korn (two times to!), Slipknot, Violadores del Verso (two times!)Guru of Jazz Mataz, SFDK, Animal Collective (one of most intimate and best concerts), Jarvis Cocker (Jarvis was the best, even more when he sing in the hotel for the fans), Cat Power(one of the most beautifull womans in the earth) Aime Mann (yes, the girl behind Magnolia Soundtrack, in the Teleton theater), Mike Patton with Zu (a italian band of experimental metal) the first time that I saw the master Patton, and recently, Faith No More, two times, in the Caupolican theatre (the best concert ever) and the Bicenetenario stadium. If I had to choose the best, I think it would be Violadores del Verso in 2006. Reasons? they came to Chile with a great disc under arm, "Vivir para contarlo", and Kase.O, one of the MCs (in my opinion, the best Mcs and writer of the world) in one of the best part of the concert said; "que se muera el hijo de puta Pinochet!" and the next day, in the morning of a sunday, Augusto Pinochet died... that was a wonderfull coincidence! the magical power of his words! Anyway. I think that concert, and the three concerts of Mike Patton, are the best concert ever. Reasons for include Mike Patton (with Faith no more and Zu)? All reasons. The best vocalist, the best singer, the best scene, the best interpretation, all. In one moment of the concert in the Caupolican theatre (called "la gala") Mike Patton look at to me (Im in front of him, in one or two meters) and he asked me; "whats is the name of the band? Faith No More?
or Frei No More?" en this moment started "Last Cup Of Sorrow", one of the best songs ever. For otrher way, I think that Cat Power and Aimee Mann also were good, with a mistic and intimate concerts, I remember that Aimee Mann dedicate a song to Paul Thomas Anderson (my favourite director) and she was funny and talkative all the time. For other side, Cat Power with his voice made to love her, even more when she gave me a rose (that sound gay! ajajaja) Anyway, these were some of the best concerts of my life and I know that I forget some importants like El Otro Yo, Rekiem, Placebo (the first time), Radiohead (two times) but I think that concerts got something special that conect with you, I dont know how explain that, but so is.

PD:I Knew that forget some importants!!! One of the best concerts was The Strokes in the Victor Jara stadium, in 2005 with Kings of Leon and The White Stripes in the same year! That was amazing!
