something is going to happen here - be ready

Shine on you, crazy diamond

Syd Barrett, one of the original members of legendary rock group Pink Floyd, has died at the age of 60 from complications arising from diabetes.
He was born Roger Barrett in Cambridge and met future bandmates Roger Waters and David Gilmour at school there.

The guitarist was invited to join Pink Floyd by Waters in 1965 but left three years later after only one album with his mental state affected by drugs.

"He died very peacefully a couple of days ago," said the band's spokeswoman.

"There will be a private family funeral."

Blue Pride FOREVER

and I mean BLUE, not BLEU... well mick and keef were half right but they were right. and the best thing is to win without the help of useless Totti and useless Del Piero, the tweedle dee tweedle dum of the greatest football team e-v-e-r-

Is nice to be champions of the world 24 years later, who ever thought it way back then... we are sitting on top of the world again

now let me have some sleep....

Blue Pride # 2

It was July 1982; the Stones were suppose to play Italy on the same night of the world cup final -they kindly decided to move the show in the afternoon (mostly because they were aware that no one would have been to see them with Italy playing a world cup final game)

Mick Jagger told us that italy was about to win 3 - 1.

so it was, you devilish mick you.

now is July 2006 and italy is about to play another world cup final

yesterday mick was here with the boyz and told us Italy will win 1 - 0 (photo taken yesterday in Milano)

lets hope you're still the same mick....

Blue Pride

after being insulted for days by the smart german press, I guess that what happened yesterday nght was the good revenge we deserve it. Germans should know it that they dont have a chance against us in a world cup (Italy - Germany 1970: 4-3; Italy - Germany 1982: 3 -1) cause we have a bigger heart than them.

So please stop crying baby, you are still invited to spend your holydays in the most beautiful country in the world. .. you can even have a pizza and some spaghetti too!

Non accontentarti dell'orizzonte, cerca l'infinito

Pinturicchio dei mie c......

ci ha già fatto perdere un europeo e un mondiale, ieri ci stava facendo perdere il secondo mondiale.

Per il primo tempo abbiamo giocato in dieci con lui in campo; espulso Materazzi eravamo in nove. Meno male che è entrato er pupone.. Pinturicchio avrebbe sbagliato anche il rigore.

Quando capiranno che questa immensamente scarsa imitazione di un vero giocatore di calcio ha vinto qualcosa solo quando Moggi gli comprava le partite?

basta basta basta non vogliamo vederlo più.. lasciamolo con le donnine invece che sui campi di calcio

Album of the year so far

T-Bone is pure genius. Never been a fan of his solo work that much since now, but I'm not that stupid to not recognize he is probably the best producer of the last 20 years... Lanois who??...

His new album is terrific, tho. Put in shame every Neil Young clown like the recent Neil - Living with War - wanna be or the I wanna be modern - I wanna be U2 - Paul Simon pathetic new album effort.. and anybody else for that matters.

I'll be back about T-Bone hopefully soon but take a tip from one who tried.... dont miss this album. Music is again scaring as it should be.

have a decent weekend everyone - stay warm

Bye bye miss american pie

It was the first day of summer

When I saw Bruce Springsteen in concert for the very first time. It was this day, June 21, 1985. It was the bombastic era of the Born in the Usa maximum Bruce, and it was a great night, expecially coz when I went to the show the album Born in the Usa was unknown to me. It was better, coz the album sucks but live it was just a magic night.

Best moment: a solo version of Can't Help Falling In Love With You, dedicated to the "best audience in the world", as Bruce said, "50,000 angels singing", the italian one.

Great memories, I even spotted Bruce super model then wife that night.

Update from Deutschland

while Germany and UK still have the best national anthems in the world, this world cup is presenting a very poor series of games. Bigges disappointment: Brazil, but no wonder since the brasilian players are more interested in booze, drugs and easy chicks than to really play football.

And for us, well, since we have to support these two useless clowns that are in the teams only because they are in to some very well pay publicity tv ads, what can we do. Everytime there is to show balls (and I dont mean the football ball), they disappear in a fog of shame.












(nice photo, look at Del Piero with big Luciano Moggi gifts still in his hands)









A note to the yankees and expecially to mr Bruce Arena, who wanted a goal with one players beated on the ground and still was protesting even if the goal was not regular: the world cup is not Iraq, so please keep it easy and dont go around beating every moving human being ("This game will be a war", as one of the yankees team said before Italy vs Usa). Wha??
