My best concert: Macha y el Bloque depresivo in Caupolican Theater
The truth is that I really enjoy attending concerts, whether or not I know the artist or the style of music is an activity that I like to do, obviously if it is an artist that I like I enjoy it much more, I think my musical tastes are very varied. But so far if I had to choose one to relate in this blog, and that has been very special, I choose the time I attended the concert of Macha y el bloque depresivo at the Caupolicán theater, the exact date is May 25 last year.
Macha y el bloque depresivo is a musical project of Chico Trujillo and La Floripondio artists, and they are dedicated to reinterpret songs of "onion" music, boleros, and Peruvian waltzes. Aldo Asenjo, known as Macha, explains that they chose precisely that musical style for being "the kind of songs that you find at four in the morning in the bar that closes at the last one".
I had wanted to see them live for a long time, so we took the opportunity when they announced dates for Santiago de Chile, as they were on tour. I remember that they took out many dates because they were sold out within hours of announcing them.
The day of the concert, we were on "strike" at the university, so I remember that I was at the university in an activity for a documentary and then we got there at about 5 o'clock, very punctual. I remember being nervous because it was a concert for people over 18 years old and I was 17 years old at the time, but I could still get in haha. Because we got there so early, we waited more than 5 hours, but it was totally worth it.
People of all ages attended, but especially adults, very enthusiastic and too many fans. The show had the participation of Alvaro Henriquez, Anarkia Tropikal, Lucy Briceño and mariachis, which made it even more spectacular and made the show last approximately 4 hours.
I listened to my favorite songs live and it certainly gave me a lot of serotonin to have in reserve, I hope to hear them live again soon.
That's great! I really envy your experience, it was truly a day where you enjoyed a lot of music with different bands and artists. Thank you for sharing your day with us.
ResponderEliminarI relate with the fear of not let be in because of the age, that happend me once when Daughter came to chile :(, i never heard about this artist, but when you mention that one of the genres of music that they do was boleros my interest woke up.
