Favourite bands

Well a lot of people are writing about their favourite music bands or music style, I also love bands, so... here are my favourite bands!! (Wuuh!) Sorry if there’s too much 70’s or 60’s.

(There isn’t an order because I can’t say who is better)

The Allman Brothers Band
Their studio albums are good stuff, but they just nailed the live albums in those they play southern blues and I love that kind of music furthermore they perform older blues music from the 30’s with very danceable riffs. They are 6 members: a Drummer, two guitar players(one of them Duane Allman), a bass player (Dickey Betts), a piano(Gregg Allman) and another drummer that sometimes plays the harmonic. But sadly the guitar player died on a traffic accident, 1971, and the next year the bassist on another car accident near to the road where the other one. L
This is a cover they perform.

Pink Floyd
“So who is Pink and who is Floyd?” this is an excellent band, they went from a 60’s psychedelic (with Syd Barret) to a more deep and experimental psychedelic rock. “...I’ll see you in the dark side of the moon”.
You can’t just listen to one song of Pink Floyd; you’ve got to listen the whole album. Start with dark side of the moon, good lyrics and good music.
This one is cool too
Notice the lyrics, funny thing

Grateful Dead
They are just great.

Blue cheer
Fuzz, surf music, blues and youth all mixed up in a band, they are pretty interesting. seriously one of my favourites.
Feathers from your tree


MGMT
To my point of view the best band nowadays, good lyrics better music.
Flash delirium
 Love the synths, by the way now I like their last album

Temples
The are also a current band, really cool
Shelter song

Of course you should check out Irrácional, the bassist is the best.
There's more but I don't want to bore you.
see you!

My answer to that Burger King advertisement

Have you seen that Burger king advertisement where they do as if they were a real state agency? Well, I did (as I did with all those YouTube’s adds... seriously... YouTube, you’ve got to stop it, you’ve got a problem). I think they are in Madrid what they do is invite some couples to see a flat, the false state agent tells them to come in, and she shows the flat to the couple: “this is the living room, the bathroom, the bedrooms...”, all of this with a pretty epic music as if they were saving their lives or something, and suddenly: “the kitchen...” but there is no kitchen, there is a Burger king restaurant!! Only for them!! How lucky they are. At first I laughed and thought: “man, I really want that”, but really do I? Eating fast food every day is not a good way of life; it brings lots of problems, such as obesity and higher risk to suffer a heart attack.

... ... ... ...


Resuming, eating too much fast food carries up problems, you could end up with obesity and dying of a heart attack, sooner than you think, whereas if you follow a healthy life style, by not eating too much fast food, practising sport (some running for instance) and follow the Mediterranean diet, you will feel better and you’ll have a longer life. But remember, that doesn’t mean you can’t ever touch a burger.
