Last week when we were in Austin Texas we bought a guitar so in telling you about the guitar I am going to tell you some things about music and the music I like.
Here are some bands:
first I need to tell you I like all the bands for all the same reasons, they have rithym, they are rock and they have cool lyrics for their songs.
AC/DC (a bit tacky I know)
U2
Cold Play
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Snow Patrol
The Doors
James Blunt
Scorpions
Joan Jett and The Black Hearts
David Bowie
Guns and roses(some of their songs)
Jimi Hendrix
Lenny Krevitz
There are loads more, but these are the ones that come to mind(you probably think it is too long already).
My guitar is a Yamahah eg 112cc.
I really like it but when I get better I am going to get a Gibson or a Fender.
We got the guitar which is in mint condition from a guy in Austin for $75 usd, it also came with an amp.It is a black guitar with a white scratch pad.
While in Austin we checked out prices at a guitar store, and the owner was a guy who had been selling guitars all his life, but almost all the guitars he had were Fender strats, which are really good but I was looking for Gibsons.
Fender strats are the most famous and most used rock guitars of all times, Jimi Hendrix used a fender strat, green day do, Simple Plan do and many more bands do too.
Me and my friend Wyatt are going to start a band with some other kids called Matias who was born in USA and emilio who was born in Mexico City.
We don't have a name yet we are working on it though, We are going to have a competition, to win it you have to send us ideas for band names(only 3 ideas per person) the winner gets their blog put as a blog that I will recomend checking out to all my friends and will be listed in my favourites!!!
I have quite a few friends so don't worry.
Chow for now!
Two Sundays ago we(my family and I) went on a day trip. Our destination was the town of the third biggest non- volcanic rock in the world(we were not going to climb it though).
On the way we intended to make a couple of short stops at two towns, one called Escolasticas.
This town is closest to where a special rock is mined, so there are lots of carvings and that is what my mum wanted to look at. The second town is called Vissaron, which is the marble town, so there were loads of marble statues and things carved out of marble there.
We arrived in Escolasticas after a lot of bad directions. We drove past all the canterra carving places as we were looking for some food because we were all hungry. We found a place selling two chickens for 60 pesos(US$6) so we bought some and found some tortillas(tor-tiy- as) and a nice shady place to sit and eat.
When we had eaten and we were leaving we stopped at all the carving places along the main road and found that all the cantera stuff was sooooo much cheaper than in SMA. Before we left I grabbed a couple of lumps of cantera to attempt to carve something.
When we finally left we drove to Vissaron with not much trouble at all. When we arrived, my Mum, Grandma and Sister looked in a marble store while Dad and I took the dogs for a walk. When we got back my Mum invited me in to chose a few things. We paid the lady but she had to go to her mums store to get change, so she invited us to her mums store to have a look while we waited. In the store we met a one armed girl called Andrea, who really liked both of our dogs, and said that she has one gold fish, one dog, and one hamster. We finished looking and left for Bernal. We arrived very hungry again so we went looking for some food, but only a store selling gorditas was open. So we went and had some gorditas(tortillas with savory fillings) and guess who was there- Andrea and her family. After we finished we went back to the car and headed home.
What did you do two Sundays ago?
Peace out!
