Fest Day 3: in-ter-na-cio-nal victory

And this year the organizers of QuitoFest took to make 3 days concert instead of the traditional 2. Very good initiative, which was partly frustrated by weather but went on: as the day before had not been able to provide half of the bands, he joined the entire international lineup that was missing. There was one exception, Zoe of Mexico, I was not lack of will but scheduling problems by the date change. So we had a 5 band 5.



Cienfue of Panama, has a sound very Latin, very passionate, mixed with rock and folk very well. One of the last songs they played was a guitar that reminded me to "The Prisoner" by Fruko and Tesos. This is one of the bands for letting me thank QF presented. They have a page PanamáRock and another in MySpace in MS can hear some of their songs.





The Etnnia, Bogota. Make hip hip y también hacen hop hop. Personalmente no me aportaron demasiado.












Gondwana, de Santiago, con el que debe ser el cantante de reggae más blanquito que he visto. Casi tanto como sus impecables zapatos. Yo no había escuchado nada de ellos, ni siquiera rumores, pero alguna gente del público parecía ser bastante fanática de los regueros (¿se les dice así a quienes hacen reggae ?) chilenos.





Los Amigos Invisibles. Is one of those bands that you thought did not know, but plenty of issues he had heard on the radio proved to be his "love is to love", "in 4", "drive a * to" and some others in that wave. It was fun and danceable, yes sir.




Then came Plastilina Mosh! They were supposed to play next to last, but stayed to the end. In the photos and videos I've seen of PM is only two dudes with glasses and somehow expected and feared to see them on stage surrounded by synthesizers, made tasty crushed every time a button. But nothing to do: drums, video (VJ, they call it), and four moved between strings, keyboards, voices, shouts, jumps, gestures. A full band and unleashed. How to get to skip one too and forget about the photos.





This day does not rain (there was nothing after Flood the second) but it seems perfectly understandable if some of the looks Attendees note a slight feeling of distrust. Or at least some interest in seeing what will happen next.



From the third day, I prefer the first and the last two bands . And quite happy with the final results of the concert. That includes the occasional photo.
