About Me

Music is my radar.

Some facts.

Favorite Bands: I think Blur is my favorite band ever, followed very close by the amazing Radiohead.

Favorite Album in the last 27 years: I think The Bends from Radiohead, it brings back a lot of memories and lots of situations I had to deal with.

Favorite Classic Album: Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. Before listening to this I never thought I could like an instrumental track and besides God Only Knows is just so beautifully awesome!

First Gig: Lemonheads at Teatro Novedades, Santiago, Chile (2004 I think it was). I was born and I lived for 25 years in a small city 700 km south from Santiago. I did not have the chance of seeing bands that often, and I remember quite fondly that show, I got incredibly drunk and they played Being Around and If I Could Talk I'd Tell You. I think I probably cried at some point.

Best Gigs: Flaming Lips at Lollapalooza 2006 (I was in the first row...mind-blowing)
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, New Years Eve 2005 (It was my first time in NYC and it was
just amazing)
Editors at State Theatre, St Petersburg, Florida 2006
New Pornographers at Lollapalooza 2006
Broken Social Scene at Lollapalooza 2006

Saddest Moments in Music: When Joe Strummer and George Harrison passwed away.

What Band I'd love To see Live in 2009: Blur but it seems very unlikely by the minute.

Favorite Beatles Album: Rubber Soul

Beatles or Rolling Stones?: you cannot pick one out of these two incredible bands, (I put The Clash at the same level of brilliance as well)

Blur or Oasis: Blur by far, although Definitely Maybe and What's The Story Morning Glory are pure genius.
