Mixmaster Mike what you got to say?

Pablo | October 31, 2007

Fin de semana movidito, muy movidito.
A partir del jueves todo se acumulo, y creo que no tengo fuerzas para estos trotes, como quedamos que no soy Hellboy y que mis convicciones no me permiten ''supervitaminarme'', pues me cuesta empezar la semana.

Esta semana por tanto comienza oficialmente hoy, miercoles, vispera de fiesta, Halloween, ultimo dia de mes...
...la siguiente ya veremos.

Paso a relatar mis andanzas:
El jueves despues de una sesion fotografica que despedazare en un post venidero, sesion de Mixmaster Mike, Dj de los Beastie Boys, uno de mis grupos favoritos.
El tipo sabe lo que hace, razon por la que le pidieron conjuntamente a Qbert que dejaran de presentarse a la DMC y les propusieron ser jurados. Pincho mucho de todo y en ocasiones de una forma demasiado anarquica, el publico no era muy receptivo y comenzaron a bailar tarde, demasiado tarde, tan tarde que Mixmaster Mike habia dejado su sesion bailable para pasar a la exhibicion de trucos, pese a todo alguien capaz de mezclar 'Daft Punk' y 'Rob Zombie' merece mi respeto. A mi me dejo un poco frio, pero fue un buen comienzo.

El viernes continuo con un concierto gratuito, tres grupos y un vencedor, los 'Tiki Phantoms'.
De 'Gas Drummers' prefiero no decir demasiado, son animados, pero se han pasado al pop como quien no quiere la cosa y eso me va menos.
'Garaje Jack', tres apuntes:
-No mas chistes, ni anecdotas. Gracias
-No digo que cambieis de cantante, pero buscad una solucion.
-Volved a las canciones de Led Zeppelin.
Los 'Tiki Phantoms' son un grupo tan recomendable que tocaron sin bajista y aun asi la montaron. Mucho pogo por nuestra parte y miradas de odio de los afectados.
Ademas que narices, son TIKI.

Sabado, sabadete.
Muy largo, tan largo que solo contare que a las 7 de la madrugada gato en mano, y con un revuelto recien hecho, vi amanecer desde el otro lado del manzanares. Manu, mi nuevo complice de fechorias tampoco falto a esta efemerides y ni harto, pero si perezoso, cogio un taxi cuando el rocio empezaba a secarse en esta dura ciudad. Estampa, Vips, Casa de Antonio (juego bizarro de cartas en la PS3 incluido), Louie Louie, Nova Vision, Barco. Estaciones intermedias.

Domingo de nervios y ojos rojos, domingo de 'Electric Six'. Los musicos habian sido atacados por un grupo organizado de ''croquetas y pimientas'' en el bar de al lado al mitico Gruta 77, segun decian ellos.
El cantante con una fantastica voz y ojos pegados a unos parpados de plomo repetia frases en castellano como: ''Levanto pesas'' o ''flores para los muertos'', y dejaba mucho de su dominio como frontman en una serie de flexiones y un par de baladas con guitarra, como unico recurso mientras solucionaban ciertos problemas electricos que nadie supo solventar, que ironia de sexteto.
Dejamos entrever que somos los mas bailones alli donde vamos y volvimos a sudar la camiseta.
Gonzalo ahora estas armado y eres peligroso, tanto como antes pero con una granada de plastico firmada por Kozik.

Hasta hoy nada mas que cierres, Gamers e historias relacionadas con Master y maquetacion.
La vida oculta del bailon dominguero.

A busy weekend, very busy.
From the last Thursday everything come together, and I think I am getting older for this stuff, as I said I am not Hellboy and my thoughts do not allow me to have ''super vitamins'', and it is getting hard to start the week.

Then I officially start this week today, Wednesday, the day before holiday, Halloween, last day of the month...
...next week we will see.

I start the narration of my tales:
Thursday, after a photo session, that I will shred in a future post, I went to see Mixmaster Mike, Beastie Boys Dj, one of my favourite bands.
This guy knows what he is doing, thats why he was asked with Qbert to stop participating in the DMC contest and they were told to be judges. He played a lot of everything, sometimes to randomly, the audience were not very receptive at all, and they start dancing late, too late, that late that Mixmaster Mike had finished his dancing part to start his trick exhibition, even though someone who is able to mix 'Daft Punk' and 'Rob Zombie' deserves respect. I stayed a bit cold, but it was a good beginning.

Friday continues with a free concert, three bands and a winner, the 'Tiki Phantoms'.
About 'Gas Drummers' I prefer not to talk too much, they rock, but their step to the pop genre was silent, and I don't like it too much.
'Garaje Jack', my three advices:
-No more jokes or short tales.
-I am not talking about changing the singer, but look for a solution.
-Go back to 'Led Zeppelin' songs.
The 'Tiki Phantoms' it is a super cool band, they played with no bassist and they make it great even without it. We really dance hard and the people look at us with hate in their eyes.
And on top of all, they are TIKI.

Saturday wake.
Very long, that long that I can just say that I was at 7 o'clock with a cat in my hands and a fresh scrambled eggs breakfast, I watch the sunrise from the other side of the river Manzanares. Manu, my new colleague came with me and he take a taxi cab when this hard city woke up. Estampa, Vips, Antonio's house (bizarre card game from the PS3 included), Louie Louie, Nova Vision, Barco. As middle stops.

Sunday full of nerves and red eyes, Sunday of 'Electric Six'. This musicians were attacked by a ''croquetas y pimientas'' in the bar next to the classical Gruta 77, as they said.
The singer with a wonderful voice and the eyes stick, repeated sentences in Spanish like: ''Levanto pesas'' or ''flores para los muertos'', and he left his domination as frontman in some push-ups and a couple of ballads with his guitar, as the only solution of some electrical problems that nobody could solve, a big irony for the six member band.
We show that we are the biggest dancers wherever we go, and we sweat our shirts again.
Gonzalo now you have weapons and you are dangerous, as much as before but with a plastic grenade signed by Kozik.

Until today anything else but deadlines, Gamers and stories about the Master and design.
The hidden life of the weekend dancer.
