Voci dicevano che sarebbe stato un concerto come tanti, che i Magazzini non avrebbero ‘tenuto’ il suono e la gente, che il biglietto costasse troppo ecc ecc.

La sera del 21 Novembre, sono arrivate solo smentite.

November has come.

Three incredible and fantastic DVD have also arrived with it.

The first is called “Artic Monkeys @ The Apollo”: a cinematic feast with impressive, intuitive, confidently held master shots - a film that invites the audience to immerse themselves in the style and force of the uk’s most striking band as they deliver one of their most intense performances to date.

Here the teaser (here in HD)

The second is called “A Cross The Universe”, is a CD/DVD documentary about Justice. In the CD we’ll find a choice of the best live song and in the DVD instead, a sort of the best of their live around the world.

Here the teaser

The third is called “Kaiser Chiefs Live At Elland Road”.

The Elland Road show was the band’s biggest headline show so far, with 40,000 fans attending.

The teaser is not available yet, so I post the intro of the DVD.

Radiohead - Paranoid Android

Everything starts in the far February 2007.

I found this song in a live version and the sound was too bad.

A month later… 19th March, Arctic Monkeys came in Milan.

I was there.

Love and magic started since that night.

Now I watch/listen to that song 4-5 times per day.

YouTube.com today can offer you a good choice of live of this song.

Here are mine preferred.

  • Lato B - Idea for a story
• a cd

The box is affordable here (with a simple registration).

Lo sciopero nazionale delle Ferrovie dello Stato non mi ha permesso di assistere al concerto dei Justice di ieri sera. Nonostante ciò ho potuto ascoltare “D.A.N.C.E” e “We Are Your Friends” grazie ad una telefonata.

Ovviamente, le emozioni provate sono state moooolto infieriori rispetto a chiunque abbia vissuto dal vivo l’evento.

Ed è proprio per questo che ho voluto scrivere questo articolo: quello che vi chiedo è di raccontare la vostra storia, bella o brutta che sia. Dall’acquisto dei biglietti al ritorno a casa. Avete avuto una buona compagnia? Il viaggio è stato pesante? Avete conosciuto i Justice di persona? Tutto quello che avete da dire, ditelo senza peli sulla lingua. Linkate fotografie, video e quant’altro.

Fatemi vivere la notte di ieri sera.

Cheers.
