I guess I've always been very conscious of time. Units of time have been agreed upon, but each individual relates to those in a different manner. How can technology empower individuals so these may be increasingly aware of social performance as a constant negotiation of slightly desynchronized time units as opposed to constantly try to impose a unified rule of time.

Time to look back to the 2007 concerts, and select the ones who provided me with the best experience, the best memories and the best performances!
After careful consideration, I came up with a top 5:
Miss congeniality goes to:
ROGER WATERS at Barcelona. The crowd was one of the best ever, and the weekend was good fucking fun! Thanks Marcos!
Miss Photogenic goes to:
GENESIS. The best stage of the season. Great shots and great special effects. A pleasure to look at. (Too bad I was so damn far back!...)
Runner-Up 2:
NINE INCH NAILS. They were good! I didn't expect such a good show and had a great time.
Runner-up 1:
GARY MOORE. The man plays guitar! It's like the devil possesses him for 2 hours, and he gives it all...
And the winner is:
GOGOL BORDELLO. Sines festival. Summer. Hot, by the sea. Great atmosphere. They played inside the castle... and thick walls they had to be, for such a powerful show! They totally blew me away. It was a performance for the ages...
May the force be with 2008.
