Talk about starting the New Year with a bang! Or boom rather.
I was planning to stay in San Francisco Bay Area for another week. I had not had a chance to see some of my friends. But my sister Michelle wanted me in Chihuahua on March 21 to see the David Guetta concert. It’s rare that a superstar performs in this Mexican city. It was an opportunity of a lifetime, Michelle insisted. I was not so convinced. I’m a Guetta fan but not THAT much of a fan.
The concert was in a former Home Depot building near my sister’s house. When we (my sister, her friend Lizet, my nephew Robert and I) got there around 10:30, the place was almost full. There must have been more than 4,000 people packed in there. Half an hour later Guetta got on stage and was greeted with a wild roar. It seemed everyone had their camera or camera-phone in the air, filming and taking pictures.
It was a fun night. Three hours of throbbing, ear-popping, boom boom boom house beats can become tiring, but Guetta managed to keep everyone happy with variations of his hit songs from the hugely successful “One Love” album.
I filmed some of the songs and Robert made a compilation video, but the sound quality is not good. It was just too loud for my camera to handle. See photos.
