Já tinha assistido ao Sonic Youth alguns anos atrás e sabia que poderia contar com um bom show, mas resolvi conferir o novo trabalho 'The Eternal' ao vivo.
Foi surpreendente ver como a cada ano que passa eles ficam melhores!
Kim Gordon continua com muita energia e sua presença no palco é marcante. Além de estar linda e em ótima forma com seus 56 anos de idade!
Eles tocaram dez dentre as doze músicas do novo álbum. Essa é uma das maiores diferenças que notei nos shows nos EUA quando comparados aos que acontecem no Brasil: as bandas quase sempre tocam as músicas da turnê e não tocam muitas músicas de outros álbuns.
O palco era simples, mas a iluminação teve um papel importante no clima do show.
Só para variar eu fiquei na primeira fileira ao lado dos fãs mais animados!
Set List: 1) Sacred Trickster 2) No way 3) Calming the Snake 4) Walkin Blue 5) Poison Arrow 6) Leaky Lifeboat 7) Antenna 8) Anti-Orgasm 9) Malibu Gas Station 10) Silver Rocket 11) What We Know 12) Massage History 13) Shaking Hell
Encore: 14) Shadow of a Doubt 15) Pacific Coast Highway
Eddie Kowalczyk, vocalista da banda Live, está fazendo alguns shows 'solo' e colocou a disposição dos fãs uma versão de 'Forever', gravada apenas com voz e violão.
Looking for desert rain In the corners of my mind Feeling so far away From the source of love divine
Two travelers on the road Just a book of secrets And trouble on every side Keep holding my hand tonight
As we face this furnace Something tells me That we can run from these flames Or we can stand together in faith
Forever and ever The dark of the night The bright of the dawn Forever and ever I’ll stay here with you ’til the end of the storm ‘Til the end of the storm
Hey look where we’ve come from Look what we’ve been through Remember the times we were spared Didn’t know what to do Didn’t know what to do
The enemy’s at the door And here we are again, deja vu Now we can run from this place Or we can stand together in faith
Forever and ever The dark of the night The bright of the dawn Forever and ever I’ll stay here with you ’til the end of the storm
Troubled times, they will come With vengeance and spite in their eyes Lords will be done
Forever and ever The dark of the night The bright of the dawn Forever and ever I’ll stay here with you ’til the end of the storm Forever and ever Forever and ever
Para aqueles que me criticam porque eu não gosto do Coldplay, deixo aqui uma versão da música deles que eu adorei: Yellow por Petra Haden.
Petra é uma violonsta e cantora que já fez parte de vários grupos (Decemberists, Rentals) e também fez participações em diversos trabalhos, desde Foo Fighters, Queens Of Stone Age, Green Day, entre outros.
Bem, acho que nem preciso dizer que vale a pena conferir o trabalho dela, não é? ;-)
Look at the stars, Look how they shine for you, And everything you do, Yeah they were all yellow,
I came along I wrote a song for you And all the things you do And it was called yellow
So then I took my turn Oh all the things I've done And it was all yellow
Your skin Oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know you know I love you so You know I love you so
I swam across I jumped across for you Oh all the things you do Cause you were all yellow
I drew a line I drew a line for you Oh what a thing to do And it was all yellow
Your skin Oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know for you i bleed myself dry For you i bleed myself dry
Its true look how they shine for you look how they shine for you look how they shine for you look how they shine for you look how they shine for you look how they shine look at the stars look how they shine for you
Há um grande silêncio que está sempre à escuta... E a gente se põe a dizer inquietamente qualquer coisa, qualquer coisa, seja o que for, desde a corriqueira dúvida sobre se chove ou não chove hoje até a tua dúvida metafísica, Hamleto! E, por todo o sempre, enquanto a gente fala, fala, fala o silêncio escuta... e cala.
This is ground control to major tom Youve really made the grade And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear Now its time to leave the capsule if you dare
This is major tom to ground control Im stepping through the door And Im floating in a most peculiar way And the stars look very different today
For here Am I sitting in a tin can Far above the world Planet earth is blue And theres nothing I can do
Though Im past one hundred thousand miles Im feeling very still And I think my spaceship knows which way to go Tell me wife I love her very much she knows
Ground control to major tom Your circuits dead, theres something wrong Can you hear me, major tom? Can you hear me, major tom? Can you hear me, major tom? Can you....
Here am I floating round my tin can Far above the moon Planet earth is blue And theres nothing I can do.

Hi there!
Tenho um monte de fotos de shows que ainda não postei e não comentei, mas vou atualizando vocês aos poucos!
Na sexta-feira passada, um dos dias mais frios deste inverno que se iniciou aqui no Texas, fui ao Palladium Ballroom, uma casa de shows no centro de Dallas, para ver os Black Crowes.
Sempre vou com a esperança de que a banda toque todas as minhas favoritas e quase sempre saio satisfeita. Então lá fui eu com sede de ouvir 'She talks to Angels'! Estava na verdade quase que convencida de que iria ouvir, então minha esperança durou até o último minuto do bis, mas infelizmente não ouvi a música!
Isso não me impediu de gostar muito do show, pois a banda continua impecável.
Eles tiveram como banda de abertura um trio de Ohio chamado Bufallo Killers. Não sei bem como rotular a banda, talvez garage rock, só sei que gostei deles. Para quem tiver curiosidade, segue o site da banda: http://www.buffalokillers.com/
O Black Crowes entrou no palco por volta das 9 da noite, tocando por duas horas direito, com direito a um bis de apenas uma música, totalizando treze canções, dentre elas, seis do último álbum Warpaint.
Segue o setlist:
1) Wounded Bird 2) A Conspiracy 3) Horsehead 4) Walk Believer Walk 5) Good Friday (Chris Robinson tocou sua harmônica nesta música!) 3) One Mirror Too Many 4) Don’t Know Why (cover de Bonnie Bramlett/Eric Clapton) 5) Whoa Mule 6) Polly 7) Oh Josephine 8) My Morning Song 9) Movin’ On Down The Line 10) She Gave Good Sunflower 11) Remedy 12) Goodbye Daughters Of The Revolution
Mesmo sem ter ouvido todas as musicas do novo album do Cure a ser lancado em 13 de setembro, posso afirmar que Underneath the Stars é uma das minhas favoritas.
O canal de TV Fuse transmitiu o Cure tocando esta musica para o programa “Rocks the Garden”, que agora esta disponivel no You Tube.

Abaixo, a letra da musica, mas sem muita certeza de que esta correta e completa.
Floating here like this with you Underneath the stars aligned For 13 billion years the view It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight Underneath the stars
Spinning round and round with you Watching shadows melt the light Soft shining from our eyes, into Another space is ours alone tonight Watching shadows melt
The waves....break The waves....break
Whisper in my ear, a wish "We could drift away so far" Your voice inside my head, a kiss It's infinite, and ours alone tonight Watching shadows melt or We could drift away
Flying here like this with you Underneath the stars aligned For 13 billion years the view It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight Underneath the stars
(Underneath The Stars)
With everything gone And all still to come? Together as now Forever as one In each other's arms So near and so far Together as now Underneath the stars
I can't believe it I must be dreaming She turns The sound down Says "I am heaving This is a freakshow" And I am screaming She spins The world round I want to stop
Bittersweet again Her opening move Down and out in black Soft shiny and smooth Looks like the alien Crowd got groove She burns her name Into my arm But I can never Get through
To play the game She's trying to lose Her ultraviolet makes it Harder to choose Looks like the edge Of the earth got moved She blurs a way Across the floor I spin To swallow the view
And it's the same sway Yeah It's the same slide It's the same stare Oh It's the same smile Yeah It's the same but It's not quite right
Oh It's insane She shakes like a freak Stuck in the middle Of the room for a week Looks like the only way To get on the beat Is take her up On how to swing But I am Missing my feet
And it's the same sway Yeah It's the same slide It's the same swish Oh It's the same smile Yeah It's the same but It's not quite right
I'm in a step, out She two more steps Down For three steps up Clap And go around Ow It makes my head buzz She wants to come now I try to stop
Always infradig her Finishing move Up and down in black Soft shiny and smooth Looks like the alien Crowd got groove She cuts a number Out my arm But I can never Get through
To play this game She's trying to lose The stuff from Mars Makes it harder To choose Looks like The final frontier Got moved She blurs a way Across the floor I spin to swallow The view
And it's the same sway Yeah It's the same slide It's the same strip Oh It's the same smile Yeah It's the same But it's not Quite right
I can't believe it I must be dreaming She turns The lights up Says she is leaving This is a freakshow And I am beaten She spins The world round I have to stop
