Two days ago, Paramore live at Ancol, Jakarta (August 19, 2011) proved that they deserve today’s the “best rock band” title. The Parawhore (paramore’s fans) enthusiastic responses just confirmed it. Am I not being objective here? For once, I feel like no need to be objective for this matter and I have every right to dictate my truth in this blog.
See this video, witness how the Paramore and Parawhore made my point..
Look at that amazing crowd! After that Ancol show, I’ve just realized that Indonesian Parawhores heart paramore to their bones.. I hope Hayley can endure this era of Paramore longer..
On my sister’s pre wedding dinner at Rimini, Italy, I met my brother in law’s cousin (Edoardo’s cousin) who has an internet-music collaboration project. Name is Valerio Mastropietro, a passionate guy with great interest in music and the internet. He shared his thought about his project, what I called a musician network.. He, however described it as a music collaboration portal and communities.. We’d drown our selves on that particular for a while and continued it in Rome at his smokey music room… Then led me to write this..
Valerio’s basic idea is to exploit this technology medium (internet) for a better collaboration platform for musician everywhere. Few he said were about musician finding partners for song completion, music arrangement, sharing equipments, general music venue information, independent labels, distribution and more.. My dumb capitalist first thought was songs exchange between local musics. eg. Indonesian songs to be translated into Italian with few modifications on instrument or music arrangement.. Well, dumb isn’t it..
I was so excited to get involve in that project.. until then I browsed around to find out about the existing music portal or specifically, a social network for musician. I found out these two sites very helpful: Which social networking site is most useful to you and list of social networking websites (wikipedia), which then I filtered it to get the musician related only:
Not all above is about music end to end music production collaboration platform. Some only do the marketplace. Anyhow, as an internet enthusiast, I feel that some of those actually has already has functions that Valerio told me. Oh.. yes, he did say that it would be much better if the project is done by musicians.. for whatever that means, I support his cause..
His name is Zack Kim, a Korean born, raise in Malaysia and now study in Melbourne. You can find his other video on youtube. If you want to see more, please visit his blog.
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance for a break that would make it okay there's always one reason to feel not good enough and it's hard at the end of the day I need some distraction oh beautiful release memory seeps from my veins let me be empty and weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight
in the arms of an angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort there
so tired of the straight line and everywhere you turn there's vultures and thieves at your back and the storm keeps on twisting you keep on building the lie that you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference escaping one last time it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees in the arms of an angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort there you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here
The most inspiring song… My favorite… Beautiful Release…
