For Tomorrow

Today, I talk you about of one of my favourite band: Blur. The truth is I don't have a favourite band because I'm always changing the musical group that I hea, but Blur is a band that I hear since I was about 15 years and it's one of my favourite because their songs makes me happy and I remember with them all the England musician tradition since The Beatles band.

This band was born in 1989 in England, and became one of the most important Brit Pop bands.Blur is formed by Damon Albarn (vocalist and keyboardist), Graham Coxon(guitarist, who retired in 2002), Alex James (bassit) and Dave Rowntree (drummer). They have released five albums in their musical career, they are called: "Leisure", "Moddern life is Rubbish", "Parklife", "The Great Escape", "Blur", "13" and finally, "Think that".

Their lyrics speak about the things of daily life and some of them don't have a specific meaning, but I really love the sound of their songs, especially the guitar and the melody of these songs.
Some of my favourite songs of this band are: "For Tomorrow", "Country House", "Parklife", "The Universal" and "Out of time", but I can't choose one of them, because I like all the same. To conclude, I recomend this band because it represents the Brit Pop rythms and I never forget this paradigm of music because in my family they prefer all the English music, and they listen to all the bands, for example Pixies, Grandaddy, Oasis, Pulp, Travis and The Verve.

Teno

I think that in the Bicentenary activities, we had to do the things that aren't part of the daily routine. It’s for that reason that during the celebrations I took a bus to visit my parents and I visited some places of the rural zone around Curico. These places are special because in this I find the chilean common people, and the places are part of the patrimony of our country and they remain more than the traditions of the people.

One of that places is Teno. Teno is a great place for visit on the Bicentenary. Many people were in this site, and the “Ramada” is the best of the Chile! I recomended this event because the musicians bands are incredible for his lyrics about the drunk’s histories, and the rytms (for example a country music) expresing the chilean traditions. the boys and girls dancing with this songs, and the womens work in all the things that the celebration required, for example, preparing “anticuchos” and “empanadas”. Teno is a site in that the people enjoy the popular games, for example the “palo encebado”.

If you visit that place, you can go to the “rodeo”, and you need visit the square: two ways of understanding the traditions of the Maule zone. But the rural isn’t a simple world: the cities have social problems, for example the lack of access to the basic services, and the form to arriving to some sites is an adventure.

To conclude, I recomended these sites because all the places, vegetation and the people are very ordinary and sympathetic.

Chicha y empaná

Hello,

I think I will stay at home during the national holidays, with my family in the Curicó, and I am going to do good things of a good man. I imagine who I'm going to eat empanadas with my brothers and sisters, I will find some moments to relax on the “Carlos Condell” hill in the center of the city. In that place a “ramada” is located and there are many places for drinking “chicha”, eat “anticuchos”, and dancing with other intoxicated men and women.

I think that the celebrations of the 200th anniversary of our independence is not an important fact, because the human conditions for the poor people are very similar to those of 1810. For example, the miners of the “San José” mine were and are caught by the laboral conditions because of the proletarian class conditions haven’t improved, and the busissnesmen increase their fortunes. Yet, the question of the development is important today.

In this week, I celebrated the funeral of my country in “Quintero”. I'll go with my university friends, they are very funny, and I enjoy in the parties with them because they are fun. I will be until Sunday and I prepare all my body for receive all toxic and harmful substances.

Regards!
