Manu Chao

Coachella 2007 =]]




It was 2005 when I traveled to Nicaragua for a few months. When I stayed over there the music was very international, a lot of songs played in different languages.One artist that stood out to me was "Manu Chao'. MtvTres played "Me Gustas Tu" music video, and the video was very intriguing. Not only was the video unique but the song was catchy and catchy simple lyrics, but yet had so much meaning =]]


As the years passed by and I came back to Los Angeles I didn't really hear of Manu Chao as much , but then again international artists get more credit in europe and latin america before the states do. I still would download tracks from them just because it was different and wasn't being played out on the radio here in Los Angeles.


That all changed when in 2007 Manu Chao was one of the big headliners for COACHELLA Yay!!!!!! What a night to remember, they were the opening act for "Rage Against The Machine". Manu Chao sure pumped the crowd !!!!! They had every style of music but they had the whole crowd jumping into happy sweat lol.
