Breed 77
MEXICALI 17 MAY BULLRING
After a crazy night in Hermosillo where people went mental while we were on stage and almost got the rest of the show cancelled, we headed off to Mexicali.
So far, everything was working as planned until we arrived at the Hermosillo’s airport. After checking in we realised that the airline has made a mistake by overbooking tickets to Mexicali.
Two of us had to be sacrificed: Oscar and Ivonne (our tour manager) were sent on a flight to Tijuana and then driven all the way back to Mexicali (about a 3 hour-drive). They gave them an open return flight each as a way of apologies.
It was not until about 4 pm when we were all finally together in Mexicali. This city is almost as far north as we are getting so we could already feel what a real Mexican dessert heat is like. As we started meeting people we noticed a few who, even though they looked like Mexicans, were surprisingly from Arizona US so the impression you get is similar to what happens in Gibraltar where everyone speaks both English and Spanish (all mixed up in one sentence) as their mother tongue.
The next morning we all started to get ready for show time.
The place is again an open space inside a big park and during the sound check we could already tell how good the acoustic is.
After sound check we had a couple of hours before going on stage which gave us enough time to eat and warm up while the rest of the crew was watching a Mexican football match outside at the park.
8 30 pm and everything was ready. The place was packed up with people who were nothing but anxious to rock out loud!
The intro was on and the crowd going mental but even more when we all came out. You could hear Breed 77!!! shouting everywhere after every song which worked as a huge boost up for us on stage. Once again it was a total success as we left the stage with people asking for more.Oscar
:horns: The Show in Mexicali was TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
remember the guy on the right side[your left] singing every single song?
it was me :]
I have to say that I enjoyed much more your show than Mago de Oz’s
[maybe cause the organization outside was a total mess and even if
i LOVE mago de oz (they are my fav band) they didn’t play a good set list.
you got a lot of new fans
the crowd was asking for more!
hope you come back soon [headlining this time please]
