BAM: Music Festival in Barcelona

Nothing better than going out and listen to some music. The weather is good, and nobody wants to be caught somewhere without much to think or say, the streets of Barcelona are always ready to lots of action and fun. Almost every block from downtown Barcelona has at least one bar available, so with that spirit you have multiple options. If you do not like. Being cought in bars and prefer to walk around, you can buy a beer and walk the streets in the city, of course taking care of where to go. Nowadays the police in Barcelona is more annoying than ever. But do not worry; if you are a tourist or you look like from a “non-European”country, there is a little chance of being disturbed. It seems that the invasion of the right is inevitable and all we are doomed to repeat situations, which, apparently, were  “not to repeat” according to the history. Well, history is made to repeat it, that is what the old saying says, and with all this, outraged, and all the chaos that is stirring up Spain, despite the crisis, people still think that music can sound good, that it´s all about picnics, that festivals are good, so we forget what is happening. The world´s youth culture continues to drecrease. Yes, campings are a symptom that there is an urgent need of change, we want change, that´s enough of financial abuse, It is also enough of just “cool music” “picnic going”. It is like in Barcelona someone had taken over the folk to precisely reduce the power the city once had to...

Millencolin in Barcelona

Milencolin, the most famous punk-rock band of recent years, will give a concert on the 22nd of September at Apollo Hall, located in Nou de la Rambla 113. People say that fans of Millencolin are divided into two groups: those who love their first period, which proposes a melodic hardcore, and those who prefer the second, which is more influenced by rock. An album produced between those two stages is the famous “Pennybridge Pioneers” (published in 2001), the fourth album by Millencolin and the one that positioned them as one of the best punk rock bands on the international scene, with songs like “Penguins & Polarbears”, “No Cigar” and “Fox”, hits they always play in each of their tours. This album, released 10 years ago, deserves a tribute. This is one of the reasons why you should come to Apollo to see their second to none performance, one of the three confirmed in Spain. Tickets are available through Ticketmaster (22 Euros + expenses) and ticket (26 Euros). Millencolin formed in the Swedish city of Orebro in 1992, when the leader Nikola Sarcevic (vocals and bass) and guitarist Mathias Farm left their previous band (the Seigmenn) and, together with Erik Ohlsson and Fredrik Larzon formed a band “skate-rock “called” Melancholy “after one of his favorite skateboarding tricks. But the “Melancholy” was a retro group, which did not conform perfectly to the street subculture trends that were their main inspiration. For this reason, later they decided to change their identity and name to Millencolin, a more contemporary less sad sound. When they published their first work, entitled “Same Old Tunes”, the...

La Mercè: Barcelona Festival

The Virgin of La Mercè was named patron saint of Barcelona in 1868. From then on, a huge party is organized in Barcelona in her honour every 24th of September. The big impulse was given in 1902 by Francesc Cambó, who introduced the elements of Catalan folklore: Castellers (human towers), giants paaes and Sardanes (typical dance of Empordà – northern Catalonia). After various ups and downs and its survival during the difficult time of the dictatorship of General Franco, the celebration is today livelier than ever and the party that every year has the participation of all the citizens and many tourists is very ´rich´. During four days the events invade the whole city: folklore parades, concerts, facilities and shows by all types of artists, day and night. Summarising, la Mercè is not only a typical party associated to centenary traditions, but a brilliant megaparty which is modern and even more so with the passing of time. You have to live this experience! Each district of the city has its own space dedicated to it, and year after year new areas add to the ´Mother of all parties´. Among them, Montjuïc is, generally, for concerts, workshops for children and a circus; the beautiful Parc de la Ciutadella is the protagonist of dance. There you will be able to admire young artists and dancers which are well known all over the world. Every year a new foreign city is invited to participate. It´s Barcelona´s way of maintaining it´s well-known liking for cultural exchange and it´s opening to the world. This year it will be St. Petersburg. Nearly all the cuisines...
