En sus marcas, listos, fuera! Let the speculation begin….because its only March 23 and we already fast-forwarded to the summer! Blogs such as Brooklyn Vegan have already started spreading the word on confirmed shows, and there’s some cool Latin American-related stuff happening…not TOO exciting yet and some repeats (OS MUTANTES, MANU CHAO). If someone can top off Calle 13 and Cerati that’d be nice…who would you want to see?
from Brooklyn Vegan, etc:
Central Park Summerstage / Rumsey Playfield, NYC
Sun 07/1 – Rodrigo y Gabriela
Sat 07/14 – Pacha Massive (LAMC show. probably opening for someone…WHO?)
Lincoln Center Festival, NYC
Tue 07/17 – Os Mutantes – They’re back!!??
Pier 54, NYC
Thu 08/09 – Yerba Buena
Randall’s Island
Sat 07/28 – Rage Against the Machine, Wu Tang Clan, Guerilla Union
Celebrate Brooklyn Prospect Park Band Shell, Brooklyn, NY
Tue 06/26 – Manu Chao
Wed 06/27 – Manu Chao
Thu 07/05 – Isaac Delgado
and here’s my personal very far-fetched LAMC Wish List which I already posted in the musica page, influenced by my all-time favorites, rumors I heard, recurrent dreams…. Tomas Cookman you can take note. plus some more acts I’d like to see:
- Mala Rodriguez – shoot the shit
- Babasonicos -en el parque carajo!
- Fabulosos Cadillacs -reunion!
- CSS -brazilians are lat alt too!
- Zoe -in broad daylight?
- Koxmoz – crucen el charco
- MiMa – "we told you so"
- Calle 13 – again, why not?
- Zigmat – homegrown
- Cafe Tacvba – ya toca
MORE I’d like to see in NYC
– Circo – heard they are coming
– Girl in a Coma – Nina’s voice is amazing.
-Dios (malo) – wanted to hear more
– Arcangel – most sought-after unsigned indie reggaeton artist. Bring it on. in Central Park.
– Bonde do Role (surely theyll be playing all over)
-Los Abandoned – only played once in NYC, verdad? dame mas!
-Hummersqueal (didn’t see them yet!!)
– The Willowz – bassist Jessica is chicana, don’t care if they’re "latin" or not, they’re amazing.
Wondering about…
– Austin TV
-Porter
-Los Dynamite
-Entre Rios
que mas??
