Bumbershoot, Day 1 (or the Rodrigo y Gabriela show)

Rodrigo y Gabriela

Holy Balls,
I cant possibly describe these 2 in a text format, just google and check out the you tube clips.

I dont cry at weddings, hell I dont cry at funerals, I might have cried when old yeller died but Damn if I didnt feel one tear roll down my face during their set. mind blowing talent and showmanship it was simply beautiful. I was stunned.


Crowded House put on a great show as well and Eddy Vedder showed up and played a few songs with them for an even better bonus.


The Shins were...



"SchnoRK!"

where was I? oh yeah Bumbershoot. I wandered, I ate, I watched some of the one reel film festival and was as always very impressed.

Day 2 tomorrow.

Ain't nothing to **** with...

I am in absolute love with those two, real interesting story. They moved to Denmark from Mexico I think, then they thought Denmark was too cold so they moved to Dublin... where they started playing spanish guitar in bars.

The way Gabriela uses the guitar as a form of percussion is mindblowing, their cover of stairway to heaven, and orion, not to mention the original material...

I'm so jealous :(

It took me 3 tries to figure out what the hell you were talking about. I have finally concluded that you were talking about music, specifically about these two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8dPso79Z9I . Yes, they are extremely good. But that's still no excuse for making me figure out why two mexicans with a 19th century umbrella were making you cry.
