Milena Velba And Nadine Jansen Running



I love the main picture, stolen from the El Correo Digital. For the uninitiated will have to explain that is taken in the traditional pilgrimage of "Cornites", a massive popular climb the mountain (each at your leisure) that occurs every year on Easter Monday. The photo illustrates the view that inspired further the song "Rats in Bizkaia" of Eskobar. Josu lived a little further down and from his house could be seen a landscape very similar. There are "the proud suspension bridge, underneath the large Nervión" and everything else that gloss on the song. Now we are trying to perform an intimate and respectful version of the event the next day 12. A challenge for which we are preparing a number of issues. The truth is that among other things unasn is costing us the subject's own version. Do not want everything to be "maistream" but not all issues are too unknown. On the other hand claim which are versions of truth, ie reintrepretaciones, revisions to the original, which is almost like writing new material. Well, despite the many difficulties we're having to match, dribbling and is working: "Revolt in the mental hospital," Boga Boga "," Bilbao "," Barrenkale "," Rats in Bizkaia "," Yellow Sigarrillos "... For this event
montuna cake is made of the same name, who has built a boiled egg. For me it is associated with good and bad memories. One year I missed and it took me forever to find the family that last lap was when I met her.

Xabier Geren has died, the man behind so many serialized novels and one green-pistachio dictionary ikurriña included. Few students will Euskera who have not read any of his novels. I remember especially "Xantaia Kontesari." Also activated, along with his brothers the label "Cinsa" and the first song festivals Basque Bilbao, where they spent Estitxu, Benito Lertxundi and many who later formed the first line of the euskal kantagintza.
Once I had, a closed microphone, a story on the radio. The mayor of Lequerica Franco Pilar Careaga, attended as invited to the final one of these festivals. At the end of the same people rose to sing and she Arbola Gernikako from the box at the end, he shouted: "Long live Spain!". I encouraged him to tell that story on the air and refused: "We do not think it's good fuel such fires," he said. Xabier Goian Bego.
