Posted by Alvaro Herrera on August 30, 2007

So, David Gilmour is releasing a DVD with his May 30th 2006′s performance at the Royal Albert Hall next September.

Not that Gilmour is paying me royalties for promoting his DVDs, it’s just that I am showing off because I was there in the audience!!!

here’s a nice video from the show, “wish you were here”…

Ian McKellen as King Lear in Newcastle

Posted by Alvaro Herrera on August 21, 2007

So I went to Newcastle to see the Royal Shakespeare Company in King Lear, with Ian McKellen (aka Gangalf, Magneto, Richard III). The pictures are the Earl Grey Column in Newcasyle City Centre (yes, THAT Earl Grey, the one from the tea…), Newcastle bridge, and the Theatre Royal Newcastle during Lear’s presentations / Me fui a Newcastle a ver a la Royal Shakespeare Company presentando “King Lear” con Ian McKellen. Las fotos son de la columna del Earl Grey (el mismo del te) en el centro de Newcastle, el tipico puente de Newcastle, y el Theatre Royal, donde se presentaba King Lear.

London, Gormley and Emily

Posted by Alvaro Herrera on August 21, 2007

Una de mis ultimas visitas a London. Me junte con Emily (en la foto) y partimos a recorrer museos. Despues del Tate Britain y del Modern, visitamos la exposicion de Gormley “Blind Light” donde ademas de meterse a un cubo donde la niebla no te deja ver a un metro de tu nariz, tambien se las arreglo para colocar cerca de 30 hombres de metal en techos de edificios de London, que se pueden ver desde el techo de la galeria.

Y bueno, si eres de los que leyo Harry Potter, ahi hay una foto de la plataforma 9 3/4 de Kings Cross, donde Harry tomaba el tren a Howarts. Abajo, algunas fotos de London.
