The Last of the Ramones Filorosso


The legendary Marky Ramone, one of the last players to the Hall of Fame "of the punk rock world and history of the Ramones drummer, will be at Filorosso Sunday, July 4, 2010, for one of only two stages of his Italian tour. With his new band, Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, is touring the world and, this July, there will be two stages Italian: Turin on 2 and 4 in Cosenza, organized by the community center self dell'Unical. With Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, Marky Ramone traces the careers of the Ramones' success with a live set of over 32 hit.

The Ramones were one of the most revolutionary groups in rock history. Although their career can not be totally identified with the evolution of the phenomenon "punk", it is recognized as the first and most responsible. The band's musical adventure began in New York in March 1974 when, for the first time, the Ramones performing live for a few unfortunate listeners. The band name was taken from a pseudonym for Paul McCartney and each component had replaced its vero cognome. Il 16 agosto 1974, i Ramones debuttavano al CBGB's, inaugurato l'anno precedente: presto si collocavano, insieme a Television, Patti Smith, Blondie, e in seguito Talking Heads e altri, tra i gloriosi alfieri di quel piccolo e inizialmente anonimo locale della Grande Mela che presto sarebbe diventato il celebre e pittoresco tempio della new wave, frequentato anche da intellettuali ed esponenti di spicco dell'undergound newyorkese quali Lou Reed, John Cale e Andy Warhol. Erano così, per la band, gli inizi di una lunga carriera che, durata più di venti anni e travagliata da alcuni cambiamenti d'organico, si è definitivamente conclusa nel 1996, un anno dopo l'uscita di Adios Amigos, ultimo dei ben quindici album registrati in the studio by the Ramones.

In this long period of time, the band has never changed, but rather refined, the successful recipe from the outset, have led to the lasting success: fast songs, simple and catchy, halfway between sparkling rock 'n' roll, garage and surf rock, some ballads by adding "pop" and some tasty covers, discovery and successfully reworked in a modern way. A minimalist rock'n'roll, having been taken and processed by some punk and new wave, caused far-reaching consequences: in their brilliant simplicity, in fact, their songs soon became a valuable prototype which was used to undertake many new roads in the rock.
The desire to create something new, took the form of a total questioning of the values \u200b\u200bshared within the rock mainstream, starting with the same icon in the "rock star": the Ramones introduced an "anti-look" that exaggerating the daily comic strip, became in turn an original look, consisting of leather jackets, t-shirts members, ripped jeans and tennis shoes, which seemed, in his grotesque appearance, make fun of everyone and everything. It was, however, not so much dell'irrisione of musical technique (which they did, but the Sex Pistols), but rather the deliberate refusal of some technicality that in the early 70's, became an end in itself at the expense of what at times can not be reconciled with it: the young rebel spontaneity, immediacy of communication, a willingness to entertain and have fun. The lyrics, the limits of verbal delirium, showed the total disengagement as the continued commitment of the band in the denial of the seriousness that befits a "real" musician, in a surreal atmosphere of the cartoon, the Ramones sang of youthful neurosis and insanity, the California sun, baseball bats and silly teenage love. Their battle cry was insane, "Hey, Ho, Let's Go!". Their slogan was the even more demented "Gabba Gabba Hey!". The password was only one: "Fun." Despite everything.

Although not the original drummer of the Ramones, Marky is the only member still alive the longest line up of New York-based quartet consisting of Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and, of course, Marky. Born in Brooklyn in 1956, Marky Ramone has played in several other rock bands in the New York punk scene, including the Richard Hell & The Voidoids, only to arrive in 1978, the Ramones, with whom he recorded immediately "Road to Ruin". Apart from a lapse of four years, was the official drummer Marky Ramones until their dissolution. Since then, dozens of collaborations (especially for the solo album of Joey Ramone in 2000, shortly before his death) and unusual cross-cutting activities (una linea di abbigliamento "jeans&leather" firmata Tommy Hilfiger e un suo brand di sugo per pasta) l'hanno reso vero maestro nell'arte del marketing di se stesso.

L’imperdibile concerto di domenica al Filorosso comincerà alle ore 22 e sarà aperto da due band locali, Duff e Lumpen. Per info e prenotazioni 347.5720338.

2wire Too Many Internet Sessions Blaster

Inauguration of the academic year, protesters acquitted


Tutti assolti con formula piena i cinque attivisti indagati per le contestazioni che si tennero all'Unical nel gennaio 2009 in occasione dell'inaugurazione dell'anno accademico con il Presidente della Repubblica Giorgio Napolitano. Il Gip ha ritenuto così che non sussistano sufficienti indizi di colpevolezza per poter aprire un processo a carico dei cinque ragazzi accusati di un reato da codice Rocco "adunata sediziosa".
Piena soddisfazione da parte degli studenti. L'Udu in proposito ha diramato un comunicato che pubblichiamo di seguito.

"La repressione non fermerà le lotte sociali"
Negli ultimi anni l'Italia e la città di Cosenza, passando anche dall’Università della Calabria, sono state investite da un'ondata repressiva senza precedenti. Non ci stiamo riferendo ad operazioni di contrasto alle grandi organizzazioni criminali e mafiose né tanto meno alle indagini contro tutti i livelli dell'amministrazione che, dalle famigerate questioni ambientali calabresi irrisolte ed occultate alle inutili cattedrali nel deserto buone solo ai soliti speculatori who continue to break up the whole region, have unveiled the system of corruption and speculation that prop them up. Hundreds of complaints, arrests and protective measures have been slaughtered on all social actors who oppose the powers that the entire country.
Proof of this is what happened last year, where, on the occasion of Year 2008/2009 University of Calabria in the presence of President Napolitano, five activists were reported Cosenza, guilty only of having experienced dissent! THE MORNING'S ONLY THE ABUSE HAS COMMITTED THE RECTOR AND JOHN LATORRE DIGOS!
All these facts can not repressive essere considerati singolarmente ma fanno parte di un progetto di gestione della crisi che, attraverso il Pacchetto Sicurezza, esplicita il suo carattere autoritario. Partendo da Genova 2001 questo paese sta vedendo l’opposizione sociale continuamente obbligata a fare i conti con una repressione dura e pesante.
Repressione che è arrivata fino all’Unical, con l’intento celato della questura e del capo della digos Alfredo Cantafora (non nuovo a sparate di questo tipo, basti ricordare le fantasiose ricostruzioni dei giorni di Genova) di colpire il movimento studentesco sperando che 5 denunce avessero potuto fermare quella grande onda di opposizione sociale e politica!
A distanza di un anno il GIP del tribunale di Cosenza assolve con formula the full five activists, recognizing that the absolute inconsistency of the allegations to the accused. In the face of yet another attack on
young activists (and is also confirmed by the recent eviction of viale Trieste), the public prosecutor of Cosenza has a legal duty and moral obligation to open serious inquiries on the conduct and direction of the DIGOS Cosenza! Too much abuse, too much incompetence, too much arrogance in behavior, too many mistakes investigation!
We are not willing to accept that the economic, social, moral and above all, be resolved with blows of complaints against those who bring forward battles in favor of the weaker sections of the population!
And we do not want to hear ringing in the air Once again the words of Kafka: "Any face impression on us, he is a servant of the law, and belongs to the law and is beyond the human judgments."

Custom Desert Eagle For Sale

Women Manufacturer, colorful and creative


It closed June 10 at the premises of the Dam, the Multi-purpose, the exhibition "Komadori" by Luigi maker, artist, writer and poet Italo-Swiss, which operates in the images, text and music work together, creating a suggestive miscellaneous.
's inauguration was attended by the writer Nadia Gambilongo, and represented the' opportunity to bring these all’ arte di Fabbricatore, presentandone parte delle influenze, del bagaglio culturale e del vissuto che hanno reso possibile la nascita di “Komadori”.
Nelle opere che si possono ammirare al Dam, i colori ben calibrati degli acquarelli o delle matite acquerellabili, con cui l’ artista riesce spesso ad ottenere una non semplice uniformità, delineano e valorizzano i “ri-tratti” di donne note o meno note: famigliari, cantanti, scrittici, tra le altre, colte nel vivo di un’ espressione, come nei variopinti ritratti, o nella fissità e nel bianco e nero delle “Donne di carta”, riprodotte o trasportate dall’ universo del fumetto a contesti urbani e attuali, fotografati dall’ artista stesso.
Ci si tuffa così nell’Oriente spesso evocato, o più specificamente nel Giappone, presente fin dal titolo (che rimanda al pettirosso), ma anche nelle donne nipponiche rappresentate, nell’ equilibrio che le tinte mantengono pur diventando a volte decise, nella citazione e rielaborazione di uno Shunga di Kitagawa Utamaro, “Utamakura” (il canto del guanciale), o negli scenari fatti di fiori di ciliegio o di elementi naturali che ne presentano la tipica grazia.
Non solo Giappone: assistiamo, infatti, alla contaminazione tra realtà diverse: nord e sud, compresenti nelle origini dell’ artista stesso e nella sua fascinazione verso il meticciato, Oriente e Occidente, bianco e nero. Il bianco non già della carta, prediletta invece nella versione porosa e nel suo colore naturale, non ancora alterato, ma quello di un volto o di uno sfondo su cui spicca una figura femminile, e il nero della Dea Madre, delle statuine di culto a lei dedicate, delle Veneri e Madonne venerate in tutto il mondo.
“L’ idea è nata dalla lettura di Dark Mother”, ci ha spiegato l’ artista, “e dalla scoperta o conoscenza del lavoro di alcune pittrici come Leonor Fini, Remedios Varo, Jean Pellet e Rosalba Carriera, ma si è sviluppata come un work in progress: le mie produzioni, infatti, crescono e si rinnovano continuamente grazie agli stimoli che via via si presentano”.
L’ adattamento to 'the Italian edition of "Dark Mother" has been edited by Nadia Gambilongo itself, which has decided to translate the title "The mother-or dark," just to leave this meaning refers to the color black, all too often uncomfortable and mistreated, as demonstrated by the attempts of bleaching operated on this kind of artistic and religious.
maker takes us among Africans primordial, the Canaanites, civilization of extraordinary creative ability and knowledge-rich (such as writing), who based his life, marked by the lunar cycle, on values \u200b\u200bsuch as justice and compassion and worship, indeed, the Mother Goddess.
A Mother Goddess is the Earth stessa con la sua fertilità, e che è l’ eterno femminino sacro, venerata da questa civiltà fortemente caratterizzata, come si può immaginare, da un matriarcato progressivamente surclassato e distrutto dai Cargani, meglio conosciuti come Ariani, il cui retaggio ingiustificatamente maschilista e ingiustamente denigratore della parte “nera” del mondo è ancora oggi difficile da sradicare.
Ma Fabbricatore non vuole partecipare a questo oblio, spesso ravvisabile, e a questa forma mentis, e continua la sua narrazione per mezzo dei volti delle donne africane e delle donne in generale, con un’ allusione alla fertilità attraverso l’ accostamento, a volte, di frutti (come il melograno con il suo riferimento sacral), a gesture that also represents a sort of revolt, of "revenge" for these people who, inexplicably, have always been considered and referred to as "still lifes".
to manufacture, is also an experimental work and return to nature, simplicity: 'The current art is becoming hyper-technological, "he said," and the images are increasingly characterized by scanning superfluous; mine, however, is to adapt ideas to what was offered by Mother Earth and for this reason I choose now to use watercolor pencils or watercolors. "
"Komadori" thus represented, for manufacture, "back home and in the beginning" and the audience a pleasant surprise, a sort of sink into our very being atavistic. Final
characterized by "songs" of "Komadori", interpreted live by maker, to close, in verse and notes, the journey began.

Who Makes The Quietest Strings For A Bow

The Last of the storytellers in concert in the General Assembly makes



On June 18, Lorenzon di Rende stadium will host the last of the storytellers, Francesco Guccini, for the only time in the south planned for his 2010 tour.
almost celebratory concert, given the almost coincide with the completion of its 70 years, is when considered in the light of the year "lent" music: active since 1967 with the 'album "Folk Beat No.1", has more than forty years of music production made up of 23 different albums, and one arriving probably in early 2011.
The earliest beginnings with "Cats", then all grown together 'original training that will give birth to young Vandelli Equipe 84, the group that, along with the nomads themselves, will submit his songs, in advance, as the beautiful and famous "Auschwitz , "" Song for a 'friend' (title to be Guccini "In the death of SF" and sung during the concert dedicated to 'friend Demetrio Stratos), "God is dead" or "We will not be there," among others, as the two groups had the merit of making them known to the public of the 70s, much more sensitive to the reality of the groups that were born on the model of their British or American, than to that of young songwriters. Only recently, the songs are back, rightly, to their true authorship. Recent
also its decision not to use the unpublished in his live, but this certainly does not mean interest in the performance gucciniana, made of a genuine conversation with the audience, an interaction between an offer you one piece el 'or other the pieces themselves, many of which they keep in them an almost 'theatrical' as the 'rant' L 'poisoned' intended soprattutto a critici e colleghi, le impegnate “Primavera a Praga” o “La Locomotiva”,(dedicata al ferroviere anarchico Pietro Rigosi che fece schiantare il suo treno contro una vettura nel 1893), l' ironica “Il Sociale e l' Antisociale” o le bellissime “Addio” e “Cirano”. Senza contare “Eskimo”, dedicata alla donna cui forse è stato più legato, e le varie canzoni di notte, che con l' ultimo album ammonteranno a quattro.
Definito da Dario Fo come la “voce del Movimento”, oggi trasformata in “voce di gioventù”, che canta l' ironia, l' amicizia e la solidarietà, Guccini è in realtà lontano dall' embody habits simply by itself as a partisan or a figure between three generations: his is actually an eye focused on the real irony disenchanted and, as such, able to wander and investigate everything that comes in first person or around him: he sings, with his typical "r" grind ", war, death, difficult social realities and bourgeois hypocrisy, but also the search for oneself, of cities and personalities, experience and personal habits, garnished the whole with quotes and literary references and a mixed-language, sometimes courtly and sometimes the restaurant, but always carefully calibrated to 'musical accompaniment, often made of a guitar and little altro, ma senza per questo risultare scarno.
Il faccione coperto di barba e capelli neri che ha invaso il cosentino è la copertina di “Via Paolo Fabbri 43” (nonché, precedentemente, retro di “Stanze di vita quotidiana”), l' indirizzo di Guccini all' epoca della pubblicazione dell' album, e ritrae, in primo piano, il giovane Francesco in vacanza a Santorini. “Di quell' epoca mi è rimasta la barba, non l' ho più tagliata”, ha dichiarato Guccini: il concerto di Rende sarà l' occasione per constatare se dell' epoca è davvero solo la barba ad essergli rimasta.

Wordingparty Pay Own Way

: poor attendance, but students do not give up


Stato of permanent agitation. So he decided on the University Assembly on 9 June. More permanent one could say that perennial, seen recently that there is always some reason why students should stay excited, because of the attacks from many quarters that undermine the life of our University, including Unical.
Actually, however, the first impression that you had during the meeting is that most students do not really have awareness at all. Considering that this was a meeting of the University we would have expected a greater participation, more participation, more desire to understand and take action.
What are the reasons for this apathy? The courses are going to end? Exams approaching? The little information? To think that so any action would be useless? Maybe a little 'of it all. Certainly the non-presence can not be interpreted, except for a few cases, such as sharing of the latest reforms and proposals of the Government in terms of education. In fact, early last week showed a general support to the "cause", what is lacking is the move to the next step: Get involved! In recent days, an invitation to take part in the party was also the group of students who had occupied the roof of the cube 0B through banners and leaflets. And the same press conference the day before the Chancellor Latorre, with the spread of the printing of the letter sent to the Minister Gelmini alarmed by which emphasizes the difficulties of start of the next academic year, has not reassured the general climate.


The Assembly has begun, as the recent meetings of faculty, with a video and slide presentation of the process since 1999 with the DDL Gelmini affected the Italian university, bringing the current situation. After the time information and the time of the interventions. Now the controversy triggered by the latest statements by the Rector, "stone guest" of the Assembly, who said he would not attend the meeting because there was no need for a "father" of the initiative. "During the beginning of last year (during Wave movement ed) the rector had been warned that things would turn out that way - said a student - only now it has become aware and also says that next year academic risk. "
Many researchers in fact they are signing their unwillingness to take unpaid activities in the coming year, so many educational activities would be at risk, while in other news circulating is that the economy may be in serious difficulties in accepting new registrations September.
Many interventions relate to the issue of increased taxes, the decline in coverage of scholarships, and year-end issue of the parasites that falsely claims to have zero income, provide scholarships, housing and other benefits displacing those who should really enjoy. The question in some way breaks the assembly. On the one hand for some is how to bring the discussion to a more "earthy" sviandolo the real objective of the Assembly: to analyze the current situation of the public University in the light of recent cuts and reflect on the actions of protest to be organized to tackle them. On the other hand it poses emphasis on another aspect. The issues of fees and scholarships is, in addition to being directly affected by the cuts, are also the issues that most directly touch on the mass of students, such as the discrete participation in demonstration against the increase of the second installment highlighted. For many of these issues decrees, articles, reforms, ministers and ministers, are issues far. Hence also the poor adhesion. To raise awareness of the situation so it is also a need to focus on these things.


Interesting about the intervention of the representative Udu Nistico, which stresses the importance of attention The fee increases to the next, and how the University intends to change the pan of merit so that, while decreasing the number of scholarships, with a purely statistical game you can look it increased the percentages. It must therefore also bind to protest the proposals in the medium and long term.
arrives at the assembly also an echo of what happens in other universities. One student spoke of Wisdom, the other universities in the South are more or less the same boat dell'Unical, University of Bari, there are strong protests and occupations, the University of Palermo will be held soon a large assembly.
This represents a shift to the proposals, synthesizing the various interventions, given that it must get out by the assembly with clear ideas. Immediate is to proclaim a state of permanent agitation. Consequently organize garrisons in focal points of the University, whose structure, as noted by a student in itself is not conducive to socialization and contact between students. On the question
taxes first thing that seemed necessary was organized to pressure the CDA next summer, during which it will decide the increase of the first installment of next year. Groped occupations of the CDA would be useless, as it seemed more sensible to make the voice of students opposed to organ decision, because it understands the situation and not strictly confined to the management company of the University.
In the case of failure to obtain a satisfactory result then we can think even stronger measures, such as not to pay the first installment as an act of civil disobedience. What that in case of implementation, however, would require a great deal of preparation and construction of a path of struggle. Among the proposals
finally to draw up a document of solidarity with the researchers, and to create a network of mobilization with other Italian universities involved in the protest.
Meanwhile, time is pressing. The summer session is starting, as well as the summer itself, and consequently will even more difficult to get students active participation in initiatives. It is therefore hoped that students, researchers, professors, and Rector, putting aside the usual rivalries make a common front. What is certain however is that the University public deserves some extra effort to be defended.
