After 14 years without seeing each other, the singer and the guitarist met again on stage during the show on Saturday night.
Andrés Ciro Martínez It was presented this Saturday at the Vélez Stadium, with sold out seats, as had happened a year ago. And in a repertoire full of nods to lousy old men – “Angelito”, “Llevatelo”, “Cruel”, the not so usual “Motumbo” – approaching the end of the show he presented an old acquaintance that generated an immediate explosion in the audience.
“I’m going to invite an old friend to sing a song that he composed.”Andrés announced before doing so by name. “Piti Fernandez”. The reference to the guitarist of Los Piojos, with whom he had had some public disagreements after the group’s departure and subsequent separation from him, surprised and generated an immediate chorus of thousands of souls with the usual saying, a protest and expression of wishes. .
The topic in question was “City bug”, one of the hits from Civilization, the group’s last studio album (2007). “I want to dedicate it to Ale’s mother, who really liked this song,” said the singer in relation to the mother of her youngest son. He hugged the composer of the hymn, a hug that all the louses were waiting for, and started the song. Piti sang the chorus parts, played with the Persian guitarists (Juan Gigena Ábalos and Rodrigo Perez), she put her hand to her heart, holding back her tears as much as she could. Ciro, naturally with the lead voice and accompanied with percussion and emotion. The fans sang it louder than ever, some with tears, feeling that they were exerting strength to make his wishes come true.
“Thank you Cyrus, thank you Persians”, Piti said at the end, pointing to the host, his manager and his band. But he didn’t leave, and he added his electric guitar for another of the Palomar group’s latest hits, “Pacífico.” Now, a new hug, the one that waited 15 years, and the concert continued as planned. Where this reunion will lead, no one knows.
