Hi...

Last April 23, I won a Foo Fighters contest in a radio station in Mexico City. I had a meeting with them in the same hotel I stayed... It was an excellent experience for me!...

Imagine: When I was asking to Dave about his own favorite song he answered: "All My Life", and he explained why... After his comment I immediately said "it is mine too, because this song (and all) makes me feel like... like... like an Alka-Seltzer into my veins", he laughed... Later in the concert, when they were playing Monkey Wrench, they stopped in the middle of the song... and Dave says in his mexican impersonation "Too much, too much for me...its like Alka-Seltzer in my skin"... Ja, ja, I felt famous for one moment.

If you want to see some fun photos and read my personal review about it, go to:

You can also read what I am saying in the official Foo Fighters review.

Have a nice day... and... let's Rock 'n' Roll.

Actually it was a lot of fun... I hope you had read the review in Spanish, there are good comments in a popular mexican style to laugh... I'm working on English version but you know sometimes work is a pitiless monster.

Thaks for visiting the site!.

Never met the man (I'd like to...) but I spent some time in Paris with his ex-wife. Basically 2 weeks.

Granted, they weren't married at the time. This was in 88.
And we weren't alone or anything, it was sort of a school trip.
And we hardly ever hung out together.
And I doubt she would really remember me at our 15 year reunion this fall.


Hmm. Maybe I should have stopped after "spent some time in Paris with his ex-wife." That would have been more interesting...

Je, je... He is a cool dude as you say... he plays drums in "Lost Acapulco", one of the best mexican band of Surf music (http://www.lostacapulco.com), by the way, they are playing in Spain with the Straitjackets right now; also he is an announcer and you can listen to his excellent radio show "Las dos horas de Bryan" every Moday and Wednesday at mexican midnight (http://www.985.com.mx)... I'm sure you will enjoy this show.
