Mi vida en estereo – My life in stereo

Yesterday, Miguel and I went to Damien Rice´s gig. We arrived just in time to listening to one of the guest: KT Tunstall. I´ve never seen her before and she was a really nice surprise. We like her a lot. Her music was an interesting rock and her perfomance was really good. Impressive.
Damien Rice´s gig started at about nine o´clock. Almost one hour late. He was really nervous at the beginning but he was calming down with the songs. I like him a lot but I miss Lisa Hannigan. Damien made all the songs longer so in just one hour and a half, he only played few and almost all from his latest album, 9. Anyway, I enjoyed his gig a lot.
Some important things for not forgetting: it wasn´t raining! hooray! It was the first time that I saw a gig eating thai food and garlic cheese fries. We saw Glen Hansard there in Marlay Park and even more, we found out a new singer to bear her in mind.

Music in Dublin

August 19th, 2007 by Cornflakegirl

Yesterday, we went to Euroculture in Dublin. It was a festival where you could find different european countries, all kind of music bands, cabarets and some european countries graffitis artists. The festival idea was really good but the weather wasn´t.

I like Dublin because maybe it´s a small city but here you could listen nice gigs almost everyday. Even, you can see the most famous band´s gigs. Yesterday, for instance, Rolling Stones were playing and next Wednesday, you will see Foo Fighters and NIN.

Next Saturday, we will go to Damien Rice´s gig. I´m so excited… I can´t wait!

When the music fills your days, it doesn´t matter the rain or grey days!

8 huellas hacia mí – 8 footprints to me

Lawbug tagged me to write 8 things about me, so here I go:

1. I like reading very much, I can spend all the long just reading. I love poetry (Boris Vian, Leopoldo María Panero, Cernuda, Pizarnik, etc), horror stories (Clive Barker y Norberto Luis Romero) and erotic ones (Jose Carlos Somoza, etc). Of course, I love comics as well (Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Yslaire, etc).

2. Stiletto is because I love writing.

3. Cooking is another of my passions. Every week I try to cook something different and learn more.

4. Lingerie and shoes drive me crazy. In fact, I´ve designed underwear and I made my own corset. Even more, when I have time and a sewing machine, I keep on making more.

5. Music is always on my life. I can´t live without it. Depending on my mood, I listen to different bands; like Led Zeppelín, Marilyn Manson, Queensryche or Tori Amos and Damien Rice.

6. I´m really absent-minded and I get lost so easy that all my friends know about it. But I usually find new interesting places, so not too bad!

7. I love pin-ups, in special Bettie Page. Bettie is the best!

8. For last but not for least, I like movies a lot and yes, I love horror movies as well (Dario Argento, David Cronenberg y David Lynch), Tim Burton´s, asian cinema (Kim Ki Duk, Zhang Yimou, Wong Kar-Wai,…), Krzysztof Kieslowski and many, many others.

Now I tagged LadyAnn, Zapardiel and Llosef, well, and everybody who feel like doing it.
