Penúltima edición del MAP de este año, esta vez con la participación de una banda que ya venía haciendo ruido desde hace tiempo. Nuestra historia rockera es larga y grande, es algo que quizá estábamos olvidando, pero aquí están Los Protones dándonos un boleto de ida y vuelta a nuestros inicios con un rock instrumental que se acopla perfectamente con más de una circunstancia que vivimos a diario, son garage, surf, o como quieras llamarlos con la esencia sesentera en sus venas. Próximos conciertos *20 nov 2009 22:00 Concierto pro fondos 2do [...]

If you'd like to be considered, drop by the comments section with a link to your site and I'll [...]
