always remember the Thursday October 11, 2007 , a band that day almost unknown in Mexico Dominican Republic presented by first time in the Hard Rock Cafe in Santo Domingo.
After the international success of his "Memorex Commander and Latin Grammy nomination , Zoé , the band led by Leon Larregui and composed Sergio, Jesus, Angel and Rodrigo Dominican gave the public a very complete, with a very intimate show full of passion in which we, his "Rocanlovers" confirm our love for music.
The Sunday April 3 , 2011, the Mexican band returned to Santo Domingo, but it was the same band that four years earlier had conquered these lands, Zoé that this time everything we saw was exactly what we bet, a fully professional band, with better sound, full of energy, an excellent command of the stage, with impressive visual style and definitely authentic.
the million things I could comment on this second presentation confine myself to share my experiences.
confess
first time that was more shocking to me , but I guess it's because it was just my first close contact with the band. Unquestionably a second chance to enjoy a live show of your favorite band is itself a privilege (hopefully not the last), but perhaps this has more to do with the mystique that people think about you admire, you do your friends, although not imagine that they exist, but still consider part of your life, friends, brothers, guides.
Zoe, now has a aura much more intense than in 2007 , insurance for the level they have achieved and the personal experiences of its members. is indisputable that are no longer an intimate concert band electric , are larger, and an example is the massive attendance of "Rocanlovers" the Salon La Fiesta del Hotel Jaragua, in the middle of an island where Rock music is not dominant.
Zoe's proposal, it is no longer a "proposal" the band has its place, they earn a base of many sacrifices, the result of almost 15 years playing their galactic songs, and from Dominican Republic follow them closely.
The show can only be described by this word: "Awesome"
In fact, your show was so good that the audience could forget the hard time spent by the disrespect and negligence committed in more than one occasion, the organizers of the activity. Zoé is certainly something else.
I'm sure León, Sergio, Angel Rodrigo y Chucho , had a great time with us, I can assure that the response gave the public exceeded by far his first visit.
So congratulate the band, but above all infinitely thank them for choosing to make good music, although the road has not been easy at least if it is worth the effort . Zoé Thanks and come back soon! Luzyfuerza!
METROPOLITANPOP
was rumored at the beginning that he open a who Zoe was Touch Deep , but many were surprised to receive the news that METROPOLITANPOP was the group that would serve as openers.
sincerely believe that Dominican counterpart for a show featuring international artists be considered in some cases.
understand that a band like Zoe does not need openers because this strategy is used when a band is not well known or is to be introduced to the market opening act music, in both cases this time may not apply.
The three rows we did to get (yes, three rows on the part of organizers comment on this) participants expressed dissatisfaction with the participation of METROPOLITANPOP , saying more than once that would be in another place or arrive later preferred not to see the presentation.
confess that I expected more negative public responses was the lead singer booed yes offended or in the odd time of filing but still maintained his sanity.
the end his presentation went without penalty and without glory after four songs that for some seemed eternal.
ORGANIZERS
Where you read, hear, or see the name of "ALL ACCESS GROUP" as organizers of an activity, I sincerely think through what you are doing.
The issue with the organizers (do not think this word is the set for that matter) comes from the time we cheated (yes, because we cheated) failing to publish timely seating as ticket prices.
is totally absurd that as the VIP whatever it is away from the band, with perhaps the only privilege of "sitting" watching the show, which not apply because this area does not have many seats for the number of tickets sold and based on that fact then we can confirm that on VIP tickets sold without the right conditions for the service.
Well, to see what benefits had the VIP , entering you ask one of the organizers about them, who gave us one of the most stupid answers I had never heard in our lives, "In this area can consume more." Thanks!
may overcome some or resigned way to losing some of our money on the ballot, decided to arrive early to have good places (we live in a city that is two hours away from the city's concert) and we did , were among the first to step on the hotel, facing the door where we would enter.
in front any of the alleged organizers gave us the space delimited information or to receive the ballots and put the headband .
After waiting a long time where chaos was gradually taking the space was filling "Rocanlovers" c tarting rain a, early a bit shy but after very strong, to which the negligence , the lack of accountability and very poor logistics of organizers, but also the body of employees in the Hotel Jaragua caused discontent and despair of those present, who have every right to open the door asking that could well have done but did not imported.
Not content to leave us wet, and having to wait. One of the security officials of the Hotel, sent us to another row within the Casino, where already imagine the mess that ensued when all the rain tried to run and climb stairs course include the danger that This but especially the lack of logistical of "ALL ACCESS GROUP"
In making the row within the casino who arrived first were the last, not know whether we had to make one or two rows, the doors were closed and only you could hear the "Sound Check" METROPOLITANPOP, which once more indicates the lack of organization of the activity, taking into account passing the scheduled time for opening the doors.
opened the door chaos reigned once again put us in a tunnel or hallway (if the third row) which was the same as connecting the first door where we were, indicating that it was only open that door and keep us logically expect to get wet within the input signal. To all this no voice of the organizers was present, only the security of the hotel gave us directions, but disrespectful.
When we were finally find mediocrity in the VIP and the maldistribution of all areas. Among other things you may be out of their hands, but are part of the same activity indicated: The heat became uncomfortable moments and "feedback" on the microphones in both presentations .
Indeed I will think very carefully before return to activity "organized" by the producers.
