The ways of the Rock are infinite could be the starting point from which, without any religious reference, even if there are those who consider the Rock a religion, for this trip was born to play and turned in two days of discovery of the phenomenon Ligabue.
Arrival in Bologna in the early morning, the city is cold and is slowly recovering from a week of storms and cold. Then a timid sun that opens up, for me, is one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. I find the market on Saturday morning and spend the few hours before the train to carry me Reggio Emilia with my friend Lydia, wandering around buying like crazy. 13.30 pm meeting with Lydia Caserta known to Mezzojuso during a stage of Rio and turned into a great friend, to join the group of users of the Bar Mario, fan clubs and chat official Luciano Ligabue, with which we are going to Correggio. The meeting is exciting because everyone comes from different parts of the continent of Italy: Sicily apart, you go to Naples and Caserta to Padua and Treviso, via Rome and Perugia.
Once in Correggio, a must after the sign indicating the arrival in the city with pictures of the rite, here we are in the main square where we expect all other members of the Bar Mario for a meeting sponsored by some users , Lidia in the first place, which will donate a heart Luciano with pictures of all participants with the legend behind this facade beats a heart that chaff to one passion, Thanks Luciano. Then the meeting with my friends in Palermo, Eleanor and Ciccio there waiting for me after being at the San Siro to see U2, and lots of photos around this heart, as we meet and you remember the concerts and seen together anecdotes associated with them. Meanwhile, some users create a banner that will march together at the "heart" in the streets of Correggio destination "Fun Club" by Ligabue.
Rock On his way then we move towards all Curtatone: That evening there will be a concert by Fabio Rio Mora and Marco Ligabue (and Ferraboschi Fabio, Alessandro Cesare Bartoli and Barbi), which is the real reason they're there. Especially since it was the same Marco Ligabue who coined my nickname: Tib & Rio! So now the group is part of me.
The arrival, however, is inaccessible because the area is not properly described cartels and only helps the navigator to find the place called Rock Littlewood. We arrive early to greet the band and while performing the fateful Sound Check. In order to deliver the shirts of the group Mariachi Hotel Lydia, created for the occasion by me and Lydia, while we view our beautiful, custom as their own, before all the fans including those led by his official Luca Faulisi , Fau alias of Sicilian origin!
dinner is on site, with recipes of all, with so many other fans of the band, although many are more fans of Luciano, who tell or listen to stories of others. Are discovered and sympathies are exchanged numbers or email addresses to send or receive pictures.
At 22.30 the concert is part of a marvel: a lot of energy is by Fabio from across the public pushed by many fans, including our avid group of the South, who sang the songs just Radio listening via outputs or "views" thanks to YouTube: power of the Internet. You go from Giant, hit of the moment and promoted by Lifegate for a message on the environment, the historical witch, as you like, Mariachi Hotel and ballads of love Tell me, are the one for me, sweetie, and the newest from here. The repertoire runs the entire understanding between choreography and chorus performed by the public as to take me from you or the new in every moment. Fabio Mora drag the audience has fun with him and the rest of the band. There is also a time of innovation: it is thanks to At (Alessandro Bartoli) that created the glove, working as the drums used in "Witch" that entertain the audience follow astonished. After the concert you rest long enough to wait for the band that goes out to do autographs and photos with the fans.
are all available and Fabio and Marco, the so-called leaders, do not miss jokes and laughter. At even, despite the fatigue of having removed all the equipment, does not escape our jokes or pictures. It is also a time to talk to them on the next evening, on the tour and the success of The Giant, and through collaboration with Paolo Rossi and Fiorella Mannoia. Nobody wants to leave, but the night falls and the fatigue is so.
Our machine consists of three Sicilian (I, Eleanor and Ciccio) and the two bells (Antonia and Lydia), goes hand in counter and continues its journey in the hope of being able to "taste" a breakfast Southern-style. However, like Houston for Apollo 13, we have a problem: the only place consigliatoci (To be) is hopelessly closed, as well as any local Correggio. At 2 Saturday night there is only desolation and the only machines that meet the guys are going home. We ask others advice, even if they prove useless, and ultimately saves us only a Mc Donald in Carpi! Better than nothing. Finally returning home, going even in places where it was filmed "Radiofreccia, always among the notes of the Rio and Ligabue:" Some nights "became the soundtrack of our return and a memory of a night that will not have ' never end. What is the Rock Praise!
so I could finish writing this, but there is no reference to Claudio, the manager of the hostel that housed a person full of historical memory of music and "low" and former speaker and colleague Luciano Ligabue on Radio Friend, renamed Luciano as "Radiofreccia. We could spend hours talking about the Sunday afternoon of swimming at the beach with friends in Perugia, but Puglia birth. But the visit with Marco Ligabue Ligachannel to the discovery of what could be considered the "wolf's lair", as well as dinner and lunch for the local Correggio always with his friend Mark and Luke to the discovery of Tortelli "L 'inn of the three swords "or the grass of the" Galera ". Whether or Correggio Palermo, the Italian cuisine is always the best. Rock W, W Italy.
