SPARKS - Milano 8/7/2025 (last minute concert)

 

I hadn't planned on attending the concert until I got a message from a friend saying, “I have an extra ticket for the Sparks concert.”

Since I had no other plans that evening, I happily accepted.

I wasn’t very familiar with the band, even though they’ve been around for quite a while. But in the end, it turned out to be a great night—and a unique chance to see them live.

Today, while reading the reviews, I was amazed to discover the ages of the two brothers Russell 77 and Ron 80 years old. It was truly incredible to watch Russell  move and jump around the stage nonstop for an hour and forty minutes, all while delivering vocals with a remarkably enviable voice.

SMASHING PUMPKINS - Essentials (2025)

 

In the next days there is a concert here in ITaly of Smashing Pumpkins. I am very conflicted if buy the ticket or not.

Yers ago they were in my favourite group list of "new californian sound" As I called. There were years where they disappeared but in the last period they come back with interesting new works.

Here a collection of old and recent songs I downloaded from the web. It is a pleasure to listen to some of the main soundtrack of the '90.
