Prior to that, and as night came, Ben Harper was accompanied the Innocent Criminals – which had not happened for seven years – but eventually star in a concert too warm, without sowing great enthusiasm in public. He moved almost on autopilot. It was competent, of course, and there were times of considerable charm (when turned to pedal steel guitar, above), but the feeling that prevailed was that the Californian has seen better days.
Earlier, while the music did not begin, citizens, as usual, scattered up the stands of sponsors looking for gifts or a circus. Provided a karaoke filmed and broadcast on the big screen; hand, another until it was funny to: defied festival-goers to mount a bike and cycle to achieve, through a complex rattle-box, climbing on top of a crane. But the stand of Control condoms called for a certain javardice:. Urged couples mammals to simulate copulation acrobatic on top of a huge inflatable ball before hundreds of primates
One of the first sounds to echo along the Tagus came from amplifiers of Señores, Bilbao Basque band that landed in Algés result of an exchange of artists with the Bilbao BBK Live festival. “Esta es canción to dance,” announced Lopetegui compatriot at some point – but the mob remained alapada on the floor in a breeze of evening, to enjoy the shade of the Heineken stage tent, little or nothing given the ballets. The Señores fired a power rock that looked like a Oasis of collision with Strokes, a cohesive sound, but must have left vaguely frustrated by the indifference of the Lusitanian.
At the same time, two hundred meters on the adjacent NOS tent Bars and Scottish Eclair Fifi downloaded electronic bulk crossing vinyl with laptop while a huge screen behind him projected spectral images, drops of water, shadows and swirls for more stratospheric public.
From Scotland also came the feverish and twisted hip hop of Young Fathers – and which indeed, managed to raise all the bodies in the Heineken stage. With a triangle of MCs and a drummer ago, desengatilharam track “White men are black men too” and left under a thunderous applause and fuss of a group of English bezanas with Liverpool flags.
IN Alive continues this Friday and Saturday, with a wide program that offers names like Mumford & amp; Sons, Prodigy, James Blake or Mogwai, among dozens of others. Tomorrow there will be up to The Jesus & amp; Mary Chain, which here will be to hit the seminal “Psychocandy” in full.
