Rock'n'Roll Carlos
« on: June 24, 2008, 02:19 PM »
Not strictly computer related (unless you take into account I have a number of his albums on my MP3 player) but I went to see Carlos Santana at Manchester Arena (UK) last Saturday.

What a fantastic experience. The band were incredibly tight, the rhythms amazingly complex and mulitlayered and Carlos was the man.

Given that he is now into his sixties (and has been performing for 47 years!) he is gobsmackingly fit. He played flat out for nearly 3 hours most of the time dashing about and leaping around like a teenager, and this was just one of three gigs on consecutive nights.

The whole thing was so infectious I couldn't sit down and spent the night doing my version of dancing (jumping about, grunting a lot and trying not to knock people over around me). I still feel knackered and stiff but what a night.

Head over to www.santana.com and checkout some of the sounds and video!
