Ciao Super "Sic"
Marco non c'è più, da domenica questa cosa orribile mi opprime, anche se, come tanti, non lo conoscevo di persona. Aveva pochi anni più di mio figlio, la simpatia ed il sorriso che solo i ragazzi di quell'età hanno; come madre non riesco ad accettare quanto è successo, non sopporto di sentire certa gente dire che quando si fa quel tipo di lavoro se ne accettano i rischi, non credo che un ragazzo possa contemplare il rischio della morte, credo piuttosto che la passione, che la vita, in lui, siano talmente travolgenti, da potersi esprimere solo così... come ognuno di noi ha un suo proprio modo di esprimerle. Credo che siamo un paese ferito, per tanti motivi e con lui si è spenta una luce bella in un mondo troppo brutto.

Road Trippin'
I got to know RHCP late, in 2005, I was rather prejudiced against them, thought them a bunch of porkies of some kind, nevertheless I started listening to the album Californication, as the songs went by I found I quite liked them, there was a sort of sensuality in the voice that paired beautifully to a music sounding direct and ever slightly raw, creating an uncompairable style. Then at the end there was Road Trippin, it completely captured my attention, almost had me crying, so simple yet so deeply poetic. That song made me completely fall in love with RHCP, I understood then that whatever said and done, there had to be something more profound in somebody able to write such a song than what a superficial glance could catch. After I did some research and learned about the band and the member's stories and although I now possess the full discography and enjoy most of their work past and present, Californication is still the one I feel more intimate with. There is so much soul and sufference yet deep joy to be found again, in that album, I feel I can almost touch the feelings in it and often even make them my own. To me it is an absolute masterpiece.

Racconti
I have spent a long long time only producing music, having abandoned meanwhile my writings through lack of spare time. Now I would like to return to writing a bit and to encourage myself I decided to publish weekly through this blog my short stories. There's nothing to them really, they are just short novels of love and adventure without any pretence. There is only an Italian version to them for the time being though.
The first one to be published is called "La Goccia Di Sangue" and it's divided into 3 parts.
Enjoy yourselves, or have a laugh or a good sleep...

Theatre
Yesterday I saw Marco Paolini in Cesena, I like very much his way of making theatre; the show was called "Itis Galileo" and basically through the life of the great scientist it presented the problem of opening society to the idea of a scientific approach to the study of existance and phisics; its is beyond the conflict between science and religion, the church, I believe, here represents the symbol of power and stagnation, the will to implement certainty even without foundation and refuse investigation because it might be dangerous and generate a desire for change. The perspective given to the show was interesting, I did not always agree on the interpretation but overall it was very good, some parts were very amusing too and the way he manages to hold your attention for two hours without any interruption is simply amazing!

Libya
Clouds of war again darken our skies, it's another tragic day for humanity, again many will suffer to satisfy the interests of just a few but there will come a day when all of this will end, I'm sure it must come!
My heart and feelings are out with Libyan people, I hope their sacrifice will generate democracy and not another form of slavery.

Long due update on what is going on
I'm so busy I rarely have time to drop by this blog, which is wrong...
What's taking place? There's a new album by TRTV out there called Sounds. In Life And Death Of These Derelict Souls, you can buy it on Itunes, Amazon or from the official website for just 1 euro, thus supporting also other projects by Frillye.
Warped Cats are recording the second EP, there's still quite a bit of work to be done but hopefully it will be ready by the end of spring.
All through last summer Frillye was present with a little store in Lido di Savio selling books and CDs, it will probably not be replied this summer because of other programs.
The next thing in the list is to organize an online TV channel for which I already have many ideas, the thing lacking is time, it's hard to do everything on one's own, a part from having to work and all the rest...
Also in its way the production of audiobooks covering all of Tanya's poetry production, a lenghty piece of work as it happens.
Many other things are there waiting, doesn't make sense to list them all, what I can say though is:
go to www.theroughandthevelvet.com and buy a subscription for just 1 euro, a little price that will help an artist a great deal.
