Shortly after the concert Mägo , Roger told me he was bored to go to work (Curran in the same company) and did not know what to do in the evenings. I asked him if he would learn to play guitar, and I molo the idea. So I spent my registered and patented method guitar and I paid the old guitar I English regent family. In a short time reached a fairly acceptable and advised him to be pinched by an electric guitar if you really cared to keep playing. Of those who advised him to be caught this: LTD MH-250 NT: (Very nice, but I go with demonic ways, lol) As not let you buy an amp Ibanez pedal that's that spoke at one of the first entries of this blog : early 2008 in the gigs we met another guy, Bob, who played drums in a band but had ended finally leaving. I asked him if he would play again and said yes, so that the first foundations were already laid.
We agree to some songs and as I learned them / review, I recorded them by using backing tracks:
Smells Like Teen Spirit:
Breaking the Law:
For Whom the Bell Tolls:
Finally we were and we did quite some trials Majete, here we recorded video hints: For Whom the Bell Tolls:
Breaking the Law (with lyrics by Manolo Kabezabolo):
As group name Metaltran I thought, referring to the company name foil. As with the name of Metal Rider did not like at all, but in the absence of other proposals have been preserved, Roger
Here chronicles the only concert that I regret having gone. And it was because I did not like, but the reasons will give them the final.
To continue the tradition, here's proof that I was: Given that the concert could be expected to finish at about the time you close the South Metro, and like trying to catch an owl could be death, I implemented a tactic that call, as Cruz y Raya, "Technique of Pofesioná." The day before I left the car parked in the Leganés, particularly in the Gómez Ulla Hospital car park to take a return as comfortable as possible. Is to bring the car the same day overwhelms me if you do not find a parking spot.
The weather in September was very nice and we did not care to wait a long line outside my coleguilla Cover Roger and me. Once inside, as not many people yet, we could bring enough to the stage, positions we hold. The starting charge was Jorge Salan. I was very excited to see him again, he had eaten with coconut Roger was very good and had spent the previous two albums. I learned that a third album was released shortly before the concert and did not give me time to get it. If he had I probably would not have been a big disappointment because I knew what I was going. Unlike in previous albums, now ... CANTA JORGE! to stick my Mother when I saw him approach the microphone and begin. I kept thinking: But hey!, "Where are Pau Sastre and Toni Guerrero? And I expected a similar concert at the Sala Arena . Nothing is further from the truth. Maybe it's desire to influence or simply not want to depend on the availability of these singers, but I do not like that now he sings. When you like a group you become a voice and if change is not the same (eg Halloween) Not detract, because it has a lot, but I do not like. Sorry George, my records will be left alone with your two albums. But that despite being the worst aspect was not all bad, I missed more than companion Jorge: There were no bagpipes or flute. He played only 8 tracks, which also disappointed me. While I understand that he could not because then I would give everything to play with Mago.
And now comes the part where I reveal why I have now caught Mägo disgust. But instead of explaining just leave a link to download a file that has been carefully worked a guy who calls Darkman. I do not agree with everything he says, as popular songs or classical music is legal to copy it, and Simon & Garfunkel is itself already a version of which is original, but with the main idea they are a plagiarist.
More than half a year after the acquisition of the Beast (ok, I ate a lot of the coconut to name the guitar) I decided it was time to try out for a little group. Before the summer of 2006 put an ad in Atiza.com and they told me some kids who had a group of Thrash Metal. Was that the singer was also the rhythm guitar and wanted to concentrate only on singing, and looking for a member. I did a test by playing a few songs by Metallica ( Blitzkrieg , Sad But True and For Whom the Bell Tolls i think) but they called me (do not blame them, I did as the eyelet). Anyway I did not care much for rehearsing at Ritmo y Compas and had the room rented by month which was a very expensive undertaking for my economy.
summer after the announcement said a boy named Paul who told me that had belonged to a group but in the end decided to leave because they were becoming very sugarcane, running almost to Death Metal and that was cool it. He, like me, she was pure heavy metal. I and all excited I started to draw a logo for the group, to which I call Metal Rider. Here you can see (based on the Harley Davidson logo with Judas Priest aesthetics total): Paul had seemed good because it molaban motorcycles. I said maybe I could get a battery and when did we were to play at the Rock Palace. The battery in question was a kid named Alvaro. We play Enter Sandman , Smells Like Teen Spirit , For Whom the Bell Tolls and All I Want, The Offspring, and we were very happy. After that stayed several times at the Blue Cat room and were the best essays. Alvaro asked us to put in the code something he liked him, he was the Nu Metal, and was elected Silhouette of Thrice. Also got Master of Puppets , Nothing Else Matters and Fear of the Dark . And then we gave for wanting a bass player. This was the beginning of the end. We tested
a guy named Carlos, who happened had tried last week with the group of my fellow Master (is called pyrexia), who was also looking bearish, but ultimately did not stay with them. And since the supply of bears is almost nil, in the absence of other applicants we stayed with him. It also demanded a song Still Loving You , the Scorpions. At that time the thing was not bad, we also introduce Sweet Child O'Mine and American Idiot, Green Day, to the repertoire.
And it was time to find a singer. All a guy had in mind for everything we play the guys sing, but there was a girl, Alba. We sent an mp3 in which she was heard singing something all genres, even a rocker, Garota de Ipanema . We thought that came to mind but wanted to test if by chance he was good.
So we tested, and in my opinion was pretty disastrous. The songs seemed that only knew by hearsay because they lost ALL (besides the fact that none of their voice was appropriate to sing heavy). According to Álvaro passed the test, Paul and I looked at each telling all without speaking. And when we finished I was convinced we were going to tell you the typical "I'll call you" when Carlos jumped molado saying that he had an egg how to sing. I do not think that was what had molado, but good. And not to screw it on the spot the other 3 we are silent. We, like when Mr. Burns Homer enters your bowling team, if I was wrong would be easy to throw. And also, like Homer, we were wrong. In each trial, Carlos was happier and more dissatisfied because the other girl was still missing as the first day and her voice does not hit at all with the songs.
In our last test was in the Rock Palace (how ironic, the thing ended where it started) with the formation complete recorded this video: As you can see him out a lot of cocks and bass sounds pretty tune. And it came to me my bad on the video alone, but usually did better.
A few days later informed me that Paul Alvaro left the group because I had pasta. He said his parents were tired of spending so much on music (it was another group too) and their test scores in the unit had been bad. But I think they wanted to leave because ever since Carlos and Alba entered the roll had changed. I also learned that left no the other group because my colleague, the Master knew another member.
Shortly after we went to the house of Carlos in Guadarrama, tested. It was building a soundproof room in the basement and had a battery, so he would take care of percussion. The thing went from bad to worse because he could barely touch it. I was going to school to learn to play everything (including singing) and in my opinion, who of all trades. And on top of Alba was made to point to an issue that had medium composed between Paul and me: he read it and told me that was disgusting, and I would not read it. But also allowed the luxury of giving away a copy of a CD he had made her songs from the groups of Deep Purple, total seventies, as saying: "This is what I want us to play." He wore clear.
We reached a point where every time Carlos and Alba proposed for testing dates, Paul and I put excuses not to be. The disappointment was great in us. decided between them to try to revive the group, and the first step was clear: they had to throw Alba. Communicate it to Carlos and did not take it well, said he thought we were all happy with it.
A few days later Paul told me that Charles told him he could not test the weekends (it was when we practiced forever). So Alba told him the group was dissolved. Then came the summer of 2007 and each owl to olive, this was the fleeting existence of Metal Rider. After the summer
Paul contacted me for us to return to try something, but lack of time I told him that at that time was good for me.
During the existence of the group took a daily mini reproduce here:
-25 September: Paul I answered an ad to hang in Atiza.com -26 September: I can think of the name of Metal Rider Paul drew the logo and approves it. -27 September: We are Paul, John (ex-group member Paul) and I at John to know. -4 October: Álvaro know. Let the 3 to play at Rock Palace. -18 October: We are playing at the Blue Cat -29 October: We are playing at the Blue Cat -5 November: We are playing at the Blue Cat -12 November: We are playing the Blue Cat -19 November: We are playing at the Blue Cat with Carlos. -26 November: Let's play the Workshop 57 without Paul. -3 December: Let's all play at Workshop 57. -17 December: We are playing at the Blue Cat Alba (rather disappointing). -23 December: We are playing at the Blue Cat but Alvaro Alba (following the disappointment). -30 December: Test in the Blue Cat without Javi (and Alba is the same). -11 February Latest test of the complete training in the Rock Palace. The thing with Alba seems to start a little better. We shot a video. -25 February: A type of test house Carlos. The improvement of Alba was a mirage. Last test group. Álvaro leaves us financial problems. "I decided that Alvaro will take to Alba. "I say to Carlos, but not pronounced. -10 March: Carlos tells us that we can not rehearse on the weekends. Shortly afterwards -Paul tells me that Carlos has said he goes to live outside Madrid.
Here leave the photos we took of the trials (this time not because they cover my faces as they gave permission to hang video Youtube, I guess by extension also the pictures).
Ricky Rubio at the height of Dustin Hoffman and Radiohead Ricky Rubio is already a sensation in America. The latest: a candidate to win NEXT Award for ESPN magazine. Next following mean in English and refers to what will be the next big thing in world sport. Kobe Bryant, for example, was the winner in 1997. You can vote for him. On December 5 we will know if it's the best athlete in the future. They spend a long article, highly recommended, with all kinds of data, comments and photographs. There are two details which I found curious:
First, this poster that impersonates Dustin Hoffman in the film The Graduate .
The second is that the musical equivalent would be Tom Yorke, singer of Radiohead. By the following: . A vision wisely, criterion. . It's a nice guy. . Has tremendous intangibles. . Boasts an encyclopaedic knowledge of the game. . Although athlete is also thin. . It has mathematical creativity. . Have skills to take advantage.
2006, but was the only concert that went on throughout the year. In this concert I accompanied the same cousin who accompanied me to Green Day. We suck good for gums sweetened cola purchased in stores of the mall that surrounds the room. When we get closer to the stage was fucked so we got on the stairs next to the bathroom near where it was very clear. The opening act was One Man Army and Ektomorf, which I can only describe as infumables animals. Sheer brutality. When they left was the kicker: on stage you could see some oil drums (over one of them seemed to keyboard) and the nose of a car whose lights were turned on from time to time between the keyboard and battery. Alexi and his henchmen played these songs (I'm not 100% sure):
Between songs had a moment to shine for all members (well, for no bassist): pique between Alexi and Warman (keyboards spectacular to see the touch of a death while drink beer), a drum solo and rhythm guitar solo. Alexi played almost all single leg digging on the monitors and putting the guitar on his knee putting the guitar vertically facing us, as saying: "Look, look." The performance was very good although the first songs were heard as the ass, but I went a bit fucked up because they played Towards Dead End, my favorite subject. I was reserving space on the camera to record the whole show as he finished that song and played it without what used to record while I was fired. Here I put the videos:
** This is a contribution to the blog of my dear coach, Jose M ª Marchante. I put text. It highlights the keys to a working group of people. Furthermore, everyone who reads this page, I would like to contribute your articles or opinions .**
keys to success.
During the course of children's selections provincial championship held last weekend in Priego Cordoba our selection to get a spot in the final, Carlos Yeray Lobato, Deputy Technical Director of our delegation, approached our Alex Naranjo partner and asked what was the secret of our success, thinking that went to Juan Manuel Coronil and me on Saturday night and led to a pleasant conversation between three of us.
I dared to suggest to my colleagues who write this post and asked Juan if he could publish it, to tell me that if they throw me to decipher, of course nail it, because I write a couple of days after being crowned Champions Andalusia.
course, all due to our work throughout the period of preparation, it's easier to write and easier to transfer all those who read this post, but for this work to fruition, we must analyze all the ingredients:
All this has not been possible without the partnership we have and show the three members of the coaching staff, we are a group united, faithful, very attuned, with a great involvement and work toward a common good, better group of players at all levels, sports, personal, etc., here we are not seeking personal glory or train for the simple fact do not go looking for the jump to a selection of Andalusia, we want to prove that our work is good for us not to impress any club in the province or any specific parent birds warming up with color on how good is your child and where you can get if he is or just talk to ...
In our group the roles are well defined at the outset , not here will fool anyone and we all know our role in both training and in the championships, this work is evident that we have won every year and, therefore, we started the preparation of each tournament with good gains.
short, good cheer, friendship, loyalty, respect , have no desire to internal promotions, nor any against the coach, talks with directors technicians, or talks with the coach, and all those things that the poor men do when they do not know what to do to achieve its purpose, that we enter this fantastic group of players, that since we got on the bus in Cadiz until the final match against Manchester all it did was grow as a group, both human and sporting, the premises of the team since we got to the flag of Priego until he began the final was the humility and work, and never changes, starting with the typical stage fright championship match that and we face Sevilla, clear favorite for the title, made us hesitate a few minutes after we saw that we could and we started to grow, from there to the famous PLAY we put on the board before the game against Malaga, just work, the players on the field and we in the band, proving that his work was the line continue to try first to reach the final dream ... and then
Confidence is the last key. The confidence that we gave the players was proportional to the confidence the group had in what I did the training work-and what could make-championship-and the living proof of what I set out was terrible time spent at the end of the second quarter, missing a little over two minutes Malaga gets ten points above, downtime us and all he said was to have confidence in what they were doing and they played like they knew ... part of thirteen to two, to go on a horn
up ... The end of history knows everybody, and now know a little about the intricacies of our team, both on the coaching staff as working with the players, here there was no magic formulas, no winning moves final seconds, neither the defense that everyone try to copy when they work on coaching courses, here we have not copied anything to get to where we are, simply ask our players ... they played basketball.
It happened on a rainy weekend in Priego ... Many times had he heard the story of the wolf and the pack of Phil Jackson or how many times we put on the walls of group motivation phrases like ...
"the team makes the team
" unity is strength "
rain this weekend I discovered the feeling of being loved, wrapped, an accomplice of a group of friends spend their evenings q Sunday Basketball leisure. I have only words of thanks to my fellow coaches Jose and Alex because they taught me that basketball makes a stronger bond that transcends the barriers of friendship and giving each of our grain of sand, have led to a generation that started in championship with a goal of competing gold glory knows more than gold ...
DAY 1
Facing no pressure championship was the first hit ... Zero, 1, 3, 5, zipper, banda, row and q area were more learned and the rush of the team was more that on the board, as to motivate our players.
Playing against one of the favorites tb favored us. See how fourth to fourth, competed better, plus gave us a security that never would come down to us.
I remember when we celebrate the victory as if we had won the championship but it was worth letting the kids are embossed with the taste of success and the smell of future victories that might come ...
Other celebrations to remember: Any downtime or triple rival Guille in the halfcourt.
Day 2
knew it was going to be a day Hard ... Psychology and tactics were the key words ... Psychology because the euphoria of beating Sevilla, should not close our eyes. Jose, as defined in a talk perfectly ... "Before we were not so bad either now are so good." Tactical because the second game against Cordova was a double-edged weapon and I think that they are aware of those 2 hours of talk of coaches with Carlos breaking their heads in:
- The lineups for each room.
- kind of pressure to apply output.
- type of direct blocking defense.
- Attack on a floating defense.
Celebrate the end of the night we were in the final, q denote the work of Day 2 was solved and everything was very successful approach.
DAY 3. THE FINAL
And if I tell you that game, Jose wrote on the board just before playing and in capital letters "GO". Someone thinks? During the game there are several keys:
- The team was equipped with a huge trust. In 3 days as a group grew more than 6 months of previous work.
- Decisions highly strategic and technical to be taken during the game, varied the sign of the party.
- Parents who left their throats and money in our own snacks to regain strength.
- The team because without the contribution and moral rush each from the first day, we had not been where we ... Guille, Gaby, Gabo, Luis, Jesus, Alberto, Hugo, Bert, Tom, Jorge, Quique y Javi. You deserve THE BEST BECAUSE YOU HAVE A HUGE HEART!
Finally, again, I dedicate to my sensei, my dear Alex Jose and my respect, friendship, kinship and loyalty because 48 hours after getting the win, now I know better than yesterday. Nobody in my memory away those 5 seconds after the horn and feel in a state of shock where they did not listen to anyone and cried like a child ... I've been there and I'll be grateful forever. I LOVE YOU.
PD: My sensei, coach number 1 and plug ... We will be in the hospital in December!
PD2: Two consecutive years biting medal. Next year more ...!!!
