  • Ministry: from dance to industrial metal

    A co-worker and friend of mine who is in his 40’s (and I’m guessing here) and who likes music from the 70’s and 80’s told me today that he likes Ministry. I was shocked since I know Ministry is a very hard core/industrial/metal band and there was no way for this guy to like it.…

  • Fantástica Mujer

    Actualización – Febrero 10, 2007 Nunca pensé que Fantástica Mujer fuera a causar el fenómeno que ha causado. Haber recibido tantos comentarios, la letra de la canción, la canción misma y que el propio Zimm Morris se haya puesto en contacto es algo que jamás estaba en mis planes. Ciertamente me hace muy feliz. http://www.goear.com/files/sst4/ef6c449fc15aa5137952554bde075f68.mp3…

    When I went to the ACL live taping of Cafe Tacvba, I thought: “This is amazing and it is probably not going to happen again anymore”… well I just got back from seeing the ACL live tapping of Juanes. He is performing live tonight at the Bass Concert Hall and I didn’t got tickets to…

  • Playing along with NIN!

    This weekend I borrowed my friend’s (Gustavo) mixer and mic and setup a mini recording studio in my bedroom where I keep my drumset. Then I recorded myself playing drums in the Nine Inch Nails song ‘The hand that feeds’, using the GarageBand file I downloaded a few months ago. I only spent a few…

  • NIN fuckin’ rocks!

    I was very dissapointed that I missed Nine Inch Nails’ concert at Austin a couple of months ago. I heard about the concert too late and no tickets were available. So when I heard that they were coming to San Antonio (SBC Center), I got all excited about it. I asked my friends and only…

  • Austin City Limits 2005

    Pictures by Tigole Bitties My sister and I headed to the festival around noon. We parked on Trinity and 17th street and walked to 14th street to take the shuttle. There was no line. We go to the park and the ‘Will Call’ process to claim the tickets was quick and easy. Then we rushed…

  • El que no brinque, el que no salte es: Puto!

    After Carlos Vives‘ concert on friday and playing soccer at noon on sunday I was exhausted. But you think that will stop me from going to Molotov‘s concert at Stubb’s? No way José!

  • Carlos Vives at San Antonio

  • Coffee Overdose

    I just got back from a concert of Café Tacuba at the studio where the Austin City Limits tv show is recorded. This program has been showing life music performances from different bands for 30 years. It was a private (and free) show for about 300 lucky people that even got invited (not my case)…

  • Trent Reznor rocks!

GarageBand is an application…
