Marmaja apart
28 euros. Slightly more than 450 pesos. That cost a floor ticket to see
Joss Stone, a few months ago in Lisbon. It was the last, we
said the agency, we bought in the hope of finding the second
doors of the concert. To our surprise, that night
the Coliseu dos Recreios ticket offices were open and offered a few
box tickets for 32 euros each.
In a couple of minutes, we had already bought tickets and sold box of
floor to the first enthusiast who approached us. It was early, so that the box
more like a waiting room deserted. Down in
change as the area near the stage was densely populated
those Spartan fans tolerate bad to worse
that breathe the air of the star. In the case of Joss Stone, such
attitude seemed to me not only understandable but indeed enviable, and
and after a few minutes of boredom we decided to leave the stage and look
a gap next to the stage where people usually end up dancing
and discomfort is a privilege. And while
(this had to keep quiet) where the eyes and smile
thighs and the blackest white singers jump victorious
the sad trancas my astigmatism.
was late, however, to arrive at least fifteen meters from
stage. Not only because too many people, but because as you progressed
would resist committing
higher doses of sacrifice. At one point, half of the concert, I granted that
had been a mistake to leave the stage, since we just
we moved, and not to dodge a few among many stomp,
while ago, in our places, people never stopped dancing. In
back in the box, we knew that later brought a number of party
bounced on stage. Without them, it sure would have been
another concert. Finally, we note, each is
located where it fits maso least according cares
the issue of comfort. Input because there is a theme that is fading, and this is the
money. The difference between expensive and cheap just happens
sixty Mexican pesos. Eccentric
ranch I grew up in a city where a mere sanctimonious pop concert
was seen from a distance, identical to an orgy. To disabuse had
to travel, and thus a single ticket to see David Bowie in Long Island came
costing what a plane ticket more several days of hotel, more
agency commission plus various allowances. Hardly
thousand dollars less than it took for a pass through the gates of the stadium as a spectator local
has
spent less than fifty dollars, complete with transportation. Only, as a show unusual
a certain fanaticism autosuggestive
justify such an effort, in itself equivalent to the purchase of several dozen
imported discs. Go and spend a thousand dollars or more to attend
a show of forty seemed nothing less than an eccentricity of village
, but had no other choice because in Mexico there was still a belief that
these events, nothing was more common than start
scene gang-bangs, and riding massive black masses.
"I exaggerate? Surely, since the memory of those years ago
see even more absurd and ridiculous. Today a rock concert, by the announcement
rough and hard to look their assistants, it seems more common
and less dangerous than a circus, where you never know if the tiger woke
especially hungry.
back to February 2010: Joss Stone concert is over and it's back to reality
, where some will return in the Metro, taxi and others
more in your car and everyone to go & # 225; to dinner where I can and enjoy.
beyond voice and stage presence of singer, one also pays its
32 euros for joining the fiction where life can be
in 20 songs and not about the money, among other afflictions of real
life. The beat of VIP
hard to believe that the entrance to a concert comúny
power has a price greater than one thousand dollars, and even have some that
are listed on the equivalent of a flight to New York. Golden Zone, you suddenly call
. Emotional collision that space in the vast majority of the concerts
reserves the most enthusiastic fan in Mexico is a shining
VIP, where suddenly matters less
see that being seen. No wonder, therefore, that the golden areas invaded by public
see friends in comfort, plus one or two intense
sold his soul to the devil for a ticket. Compare the
feedback you would expect of a wealthy
thousand satisfied and a mass of darker and eager to ask. So at the end
who spent nine thousand pesos on a pair of tickets
occupy the place which for technical reasons should be left to others,
clear detriment of the show.
And here is where we got to the hidden ingredient of the point:
Avándaro to date, the massive concerts
drag the specter of terror to the populace. No wonder some of the area assigned to the golden
pay less to see what will that look safe from
naquerío. To go to the concert without leaving the club in an area where the excess aseptic
rarely spreads and less stems.
Where the sinking fastballs without bouncing, or at least do it sparingly
. We know what a tenant pays
golden zone, but not what give the show who, elsewhere,
spend the whole night waiting in line to achieve a democratic ticket
first row. Seen from a distance, the difference is tragic. Country
civilized would be the place where the pop can afford
be pop.
