Silvercity Birthday Party Brampton

El Indio Solari and "Twilight of the Idols"

(I take leave and leave aside the general issues discussed in the blog, for a" catharsis "personal)


The interview last the Indian Pergolini the program added a new "disappointment" to many ricotero.
As I was telling a friend in the nineties, the ritual of belonging to this urban tribe that followed Patrick Rey and Ricotta Redonditos somehow became a "foxhole strength" cultural conservative in full restoration (postmodernism and neoliberalism in the world and Creole version of the Menem)
personally belong to the generation that never saw the most intimate shows of "Round and Ballet, with the monologues of Henry Syms, the performance of the" Bay Biscuits "(including Faithfull Marianne) and Monona Blues and the famous ricotta redonditos sharing among the public. For those who entered the "tribe" in the nineties this was already part of the "myth" of a golden age, always better than that touched us. Puteábamos against that bloody dictatorship of our era and that prevented us from seeing Luca and Sumo, and it was not a "true round" while those who do not worship Luca Prodan (in the same way that, even then, I hated to Petinato, "the journalist who is dying to play" ) . But hey, if we follow the same logic, we saw not comforted, Morrison, and Janis and Jimi Hendrix and the great, or a. .. then this is what we are and "patriots of our time."
those years also had their mystique ... The first works in the early nineties, the microstage of Lanús, the 40 thousand people in the Municipal Exhibition Center (if there was "the world's largest pogo) to Hurricane, Racing .... until I came here.
Without internet, sms or massive as today, first was a version "che again say they do works" and after confirmation in a radio program and had to start collecting coins so that in the case of funds that we lived in the metropolitan area, a delegation "trip to the Capital" and get the tickets. Rent the buses, painting the flags and try to go without a ride or you stick the cane and the challenge to overcome (in number or Flag) to the "gang of Aldo Bonzi" mission impossible, by dint of sheer creativity people and had become (at least at the time) in a "barra brava" of the round.
And to alleviate the wait until the new "ritual" to intercalábamos Divididos Las Pelotas or weekends in Theatre Cement Arpeggios or bass (where the hell out of Chabán began planting the future Cromagnon), Harlequins and other places that do not remember their names now, and every now and not ruled Memphis o Misissipi.
But the matter did not end there, the other part of the time was busy digging in record stores or friends and acquaintances to get any of the recorded live (Palladium of 85, the Horse of the Sun of 8? "), they buy a TDK guaranteeing" quality ", record and copy in color the cap" original. " There we discovered the unpublished (My genius Love, The Return of Mao, from these powders, slurries and my preferred future Roxana Porchelana or Bee Rock ). We were also looking like gold interviews Floor 93, the only radio program that gave notes. In my case (and I suppose many kids in the suburbs) the rounds were a sort of gateway to critical thinking. Discussions to "philosophical" about the meaning of thought-provoking lyrics and that in part I owe it to the round and some rock culture in general. Very different and of course with much more space than the culture that "condemns" the suburbs for most of the kids (cumbia villera, Tinelli and the People's Daily), culture today is "aestheticized" by some Peronist intellectuals as the ultimate expression of "poor urban core."
And all that "militancy" ricotero had his reasons, not just playing the best rock, but they were rebels. Independence was his trademark and the poetry of the lyrics was no rebellion, whether against bourgeois morality and condemnation of drugs and the institutions of the "system." And all this done with the best rock and role. That was the covenant, that was what they expressed rounds of youth and youth want that the round.
Walter's death on that fateful April 91 and particularly the disproportionate reaction of the band before the murder, was a first turning point, a shadow over the idols. The Syms acid always told him bluntly: "Indian, killed one guest of yours in your door and you did not do anything" . And we hated the lumpen Syms, but became more difficult to defend the Indians (except the "head trash" that there is and many) and we knew there was some truth to that accusation lapidary Today we see the Indian
saying he spoke with "Hannibal" because it is a ricotero par excellence and he is happy with Cristina's speeches at the UN, just days after allies who support this government have been killed Mariano Ferreyra and two members of the community Qom in Formosa.
Our reading of "All a stick", "Everything is political prisoner" or "October Fires" was not just that.
believe that the attraction or the taste for expressing an aesthetic work is not directly connected with the political stances of the artist, the work can be "revolutionary" or high "expression of his age" or even advance the future, although the artist's individual political positions are of the most reactionary (Borges is perhaps the most complete example of this "contradiction"). But in the case of rounding, the rebellion was part of the "covenant" and the art of rock and role, no doubt, the best that gave this country was crossed by the call for resistance and a clear political position before the system.
But beyond the artist, as I believe that in this case, almost becomes independent of his work (or the best of his work), does not deny the character of the work was (and is). Patricio Rey and Ricotta Redonditos expressed a time or young people who wanted "survive" to a time of poverty and cultural shallowness. So we let the Indian "tweeted" with Anibal, mind Nestor and Cristina celebrates ... We can still enjoy Ji, Ji, Ji and continue to encourage the "Fires of October."
