E' Solo un Rock 'n' Roll Show

One of the greatest Italian artist ever will finally be on a Europe Tour, a great chance to export abroad music you can definitely say a "good" one.
To us, Vasco Rossi is quite a monument, a legend, the father of at least three generation. He's the father of Italian Rock Music too, with the precious support of a band made by some of the better musicians all over the World. So yes, this will be a great, an important chance, even and especially because they all give their best on stage, used to performing live in front of sold out stadiums.
Once again I wont translate you anything of his magnificent lyrics: they are poems, in both words and rhapsodies, and as poems I think they must "live" in the language they were born.
I really hope this will be the opportunity to finally bring Vasco's music outside Italy, even if the language is always a problematic issue: I mean, Italians don't have lots of difficulties to understand Beatles, but it's right to say that one thing is Italian and another is English. Aside from that, I think language can never be a limit in art, so in music either. It's especially here, in music range, that when you're listening to a song you must surrender and just feel it into you; nothing else matters. After all, today it's so easy to find on the internet a way to translate a lyrics; in fact, music, movies and books are quite a really good way to get into a foreign language, a different culture, also a slang, all those things you're not generally used to.
I think self-learning is the best form to get into things which are actually unknown to you...together with travel a lot, self-learning is even better than school, I speak from my own experience: school only gives you the theory, but it doesn't give you the practice. It's good and necessary to have both, that's sure, but you can't have just theory. Above all, self-learning made by music, movies and so on, it's the best because it will always be moved by passion, love, interest: it's suppose that when you choose to learn something by yourself, not because of someone else's imposition, it's because you really care about this thing and you don't feel it, live it like a weight.
"Music makes the people come together", someone said...I think she was absolutely right.
