Riproponiamo il Toto Sanremo anche per la sezione " Sanremo Social ", quella relativa ai giovani. Quale tra le otto nuove proposte vincer l'edizione del 2012 della famosa kermesse? In questo caso, a differenza dei big, conosciamo le canzoni. Potete ascoltarle una ad una cliccando qui . La protetta di Caterina Caselli, quella "indipendente", quella "dipendenti", quella che a che fare con Laura Pausini o le due che hanno bazzicato nell' Area Sanremo ? Magari alla fine scopriremo che il vero vincitore (morale) sar Enzo Iacchetti . Rispondete al sondaggio in basso riportato.

E come ogni anno anche per questo 2012 facciamo il Toto Sanremo . Non conosciamo ancora le canzoni che i big in gara porteranno sul palco dell'Ariston (ehm... qualcuna in effetti ci pervenuta in anticipo ) ma nonostante questo possiamo comunque divertirci a prevedere quale canzone vincer la kermesse. La strana accoppiata, i reduci dai talent, i grandi ritorni, il gruppo sanremese, caruso e carusino, la jazzista copiona, la figlia raccomandata, la stralunata prossima al cambiamento, il rock fuori contesto, l'artista dalla bocca alla Steven Tyler ed il marito di Non la [...]]]> text/html 2011-11-29T17:26:58+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3895214/toto-falling-in-between-live-2007/
For today's Live Performance we got an appointment with a bunch of studio cats that were on nearly half of what was recorded in the U.S. in the 80s, from Michael Jackson, to the Tubes, from Quincy Jones and Al Jarreau to Boz Scaggs and George Benson, they just seemed to be everywhere at the time. And playing together as Toto they even collected a couple of Grammy's. Their heydays may be over, times change after all, and music has changed too, but they still know how to play an entertaining gig, now with the help of even more studio/session [...]]]> text/html 2011-11-14T22:38:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3861752/brooklyn-electronic-music-festival-festival-report/
I am genuinely curious how New Yorkers manage to survive and thrive as regular human beings when they're surrounded by so many tempting musical events. After traveling into Brooklyn on Thursday night for Earmilk's own Night Rumours club night, I made my way to Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival (BEMF) on Friday and Saturday, and no amount of coffee can quite revive me today after partying until 4 am three days in a row. By midnight on Saturday, my feet were in so much pain (even in flats) that if I had stopped dancing for even a moment, I [...]]]> text/html 2011-11-14T22:38:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3861754/brooklyn-electronic-music-festival-festival-report/

So, the clocks have been turned back, an act that still is an odd thing to me as I grew up in one of the few swaths of the US that didn't acknowledge such antics. (Paloma is like a ninja somehow resetting all of the numerous timepieces in the treehouse so swiftly, so deftly that I never see her do it, but the feat is accomplished by the time I awake) As the citizens of my hometown were ignoring the changing of the times in autumn, 1984, my friends and I had all reached our sixteenth [...]]]> text/html 2011-10-17T19:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3796082/live-review-and-photos-the-head-and-the-heart-at/

Van goede collega's blijf je altijd leren, blijkt maar weer.

Whenever I tackle a song by The Beatles for Cover Wars, I like to head on over to see what Alan Pollack has to say on the song's topic and the in-depth musical analysis he provides on his website , a must-bookmark site for any Beatles fan or musician. The absolute basics: Released on The White Album, written by George Harrison and Eric Clapton guests on lead guitar.

Sometimes things are lo-fi because people like to use old equipment, sometimes because they just prefer the sound, and sometimes because, as seems to be the case here, the whole business was thrown together quickly as a bit of a lark. This is whatever you'd a call a combination of supergroup, side project, imaginary band and a bit of good-natured fucking around. Ben and Mark from Brown Brogues join Luke from Sex Beet and Jerry Tropicano for a what turned out to be a weekend of writing and recording, and this is [...]]]> text/html 2011-10-02T12:27:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3760965/toto-the-bad-eggs-wallet-droppin-ep/

Fucking FINALLY, you guys. First of all, I am terrible at keeping secrets. I almost once ruined N.I.N's final show at the Echoplex by telling someone, so you'll be incredibly impressed that I kept Toto & The Bad Eggs a secret for so long.

L'illegalit delle scommesse effettuate calciatori un concetto primitivo. Sportivamente, questo reato punito con una sospensione di 18 mesi. Significa che, in caso di accertate puntate, non c' da discutere: non si pu fare per legge. Si ragiona solo su tipo ed entit della pena. Questa perentoriet costrinse negli anni '80, come ho gi scritto, i calciatori ad utilizzare intermediari per piazzare una qualsiasi scommessa. E l'intermediario da sempre un problema quando si parla di soldi: finisce con il prendere percentuali di denaro che non gli spettano (come Emilio Fede), finisce con il [...]]]> text/html 2011-06-30T07:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3556908/hold-the-line-totonero-3-parte/
[continua da qui ] I giocatori della Lazio proposero a Cruciani di scommettere su partite di calcio il cui risultato era stato concordato tra le squadre partecipanti, direttamente dai dirigenti delle societ o da calciatori compiacenti. In teoria, secondo la cricca di Bruno Giordano, ogni partita poteva essere pilotata, sborsando una certa somma di denaro e avendo un contatto all'interno dello spogliatoio da corrompere. La dinamica che vorrei spiegare, cercando di essere semplice e chiaro, non complessa. Da sempre i risultati delle partite di calcio sono stati accomodati.

Da qualche anno le squadre di calcio sono proprietarie di grandi centri sportivi, che ospitano sia strutture di allenamento sia piccoli impianti alberghieri esclusivi per i propri tesserati. Prima di una partita di calcio, ormai molte squadre si ritrovano in questi centri sportivi, per poi dirigersi verso lo stadio cittadino con un pullman sociale. In passato non sempre stato cos. Per evitare traffico, per evitare spostamenti a ridosso di un incontro sportivo, le squadre compivano un avvicinamento alla zona dello stadio, per riposarsi e per mangiare, fermandosi in un grande albergo dalla mattina del giorno dell'incontro [...]]]>
