    It seemed like a college party, the average age was like early 20's. I was surrounded by a group of people who didnt look older than 20 and felt like an uncle the family sends to take care of the kids outside. But then, I got a nice surprise when I saw those kids knowing the lyrics to classic PJ songs word by word.

    There was not the intensity of Buenos Aires crowd but overall, it was nice, cool show. Sao Paulo is a cool place, a much bigger version of a cool German city like Frankfurt. It also seemed like the kind of place where the Brazilian supermodels come from. :)
    for those who couldn't attend the show...

    There are some memories that stayed with you all the way when you got on tour with a band like PJ. When you get on a plane wearing a PJ t-shirt and you see one third of the passengers spread on a plane wearing PJ-20, PJ Euro Tour, PJ SA 2005 tour, Stickman t-shirts, all heading to Sao Paulo, and most people are going to the beach and really don't have a clue why so many people wear PJ t-shirts and why they look so happy! Priceless!

    They don't know what they are missing... ;)
    Let's say knowledge is a tree, yeah.
    It's growing up just like me.

    Look like a good show, anyway (no offense to my Brazilians friends), I think the show here in Argentina next Wednesday will be much better. As always. The passion of the Argentinian crowd is unmatchable.
    First I want to congratulate the brazilians for the excellent festival they organized. The WHOLE WEEKEND WAS AMAZING, the atmosphere, the place, the sound, the lights, the staff, the beer, the food, the transportation network, all was superb and most important THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND THE MUSIC!
    I hope we argentinians add to our incredible passion this level of commitment to have a festival like the brazilian lolla.

    I was there last night, I wanted more songs but I realized that the staff supporting the festival had time constrains with buses, metro, etc. Sao Paulo is huge and 55.000 people is a big number to manage. The set list was made for a festival, the classics people wanted, olé as a gift, people wanted to sing along and they delivered the music to do it. I missed the argentinian guitar singalongs, I started to sing them but the brazilians have a different way, it's like oh, oh, oh, along with the drum beats, jumping supporting the tempo. Highlight for me was the melody singalong during Wishlist, excellent, it could last forever and fade the end, very nice add to the song.
    So I'm waiting to catch my plane back home, to enjoy our singalongs in BA, and then heading to Santiago.


    Hey, Fedeco! Didn't you have troubles in the willcall to withdraw your tickets?
    I am brazilian. I hosted three guys from Chile. I went with them to withdraw their tickets on friday and we waited FOUR HOURS in the line.
    I am ashamed.

    I am brazilian. I hosted three guys from Chile. I went with them to withdraw their tickets on friday and we waited FOUR HOURS in the line.
    I am ashamed.
    Oii Nane! I went to Butanta late on Thursday, 6 pm or so and asked the guys at the first ticket boot, they told me to go to one address 1XXX something on the same avenue, 500 meters from there, to pick up the tickets. I got there, I was told to go upstairs because it was an international order, but when I was there none of the girls knew about Ten Club or Tickets discounts, jeje! So I spent some time explaining in a mix of spanish and really bad portuguese why my tickets were cheap in comparison with regular 3 days passes, so one said some magic words fam clube! Yeahhh Fan Clube, in spanish I started to give thanks to the girl, so I waited a while because one Fan ticket (Friday) wasn't there so she asked for one, and then the IT system didn't get along with my order, one hour or so, from the start to the end, but I learnt a lot of portuguese in the process!

    You're ashamed for the tickets withdraw,it's nothing compared with your nightmare in BA. I'm really really sorry for the bad experience in my homeland, we brought into concerts the best and the worst from our football supporters culture, be close to the fence it's becoming more and more men's only experience because of the reckless behavior, the football chanting and riff singalongs are the best, the wild behavior is the worst. I met a brazilian couple going to BA and Santiago in my flight back to BA and as we walked to get our luggage I warned the guy about the jumping and pushing because I really wanted them to enjoy safely the crowd energy and the chanting.

    I was lucky to be in the same plane with them to Santiago, I spoke with them about the gig in BA and the guy was very excited about the crowd chanting and the jumping but the wife didn't enjoy the experience at all cos'the pushings, I really had no words to say to her because I felt she was right, it's something to be address to make the experience positive for everyone.

    So we have to give positive feedback to the things that make the PJ - SA touring experience unique and discuss the ones we need to change to make it perfect and enjoyable for everyone.

    If I have to choose the dream scenario would be: first most important PJ on stage! Then Parque O'Higgings, perfect grass, families lying on the hill, trees, Santiago weather, perfect, the friendly staff and people @ Lolla Sampa, excellent beer delivered to you by guys with cooling backpacks, great food, and the beautiful and relaxed paulistas and the crowd energy of buenos aires without the pushing. Paradise!
