On March 16, 2016, I participated in the Major Lazer concert in Cuba as part of my work, at the Anti-Imperialist Tribune, yes, it has that name because it is behind the US Embassy, which is actually Swiss, but is more commonly known by that name, US Embassy, things of this system.
The tribune is located in the Vedado and was created to hold meetings and rallies to repudiate Yankee imperialism 😂😂😂
Well, here personalities from the island and other nations were also playing.
El dia 16 de marzo del año 2016, yo por mi trabajo participé en el concierto de major lazer en cuba, en la tribuna antiimperialista , si, tiene ese nombre porque está detrás de la embajada> >americana, que en realidad es la suiza, pero, es mas conocida por ese nombre, embajada americana, cosas de este sistema.>
La tribuna, queda en el vedado, fue creada, para dar reuniones, y mitin de repudio al imperialismo yanki 🤣🤣🤣
bueno, aqui tambien tocaban personalidades de la isla y otras naciones.>
People from all over the country had been waiting for this concert since the day before. I had to be there at 8am, and I barely made it in time for my shift. It looked like the concert was already happening. The fans were waiting, knowing that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They couldn't afford to miss a good spot from which to watch the show. This photo was taken early that morning.
Desde el día anterior, estaban personas del interior del país, de zonas lejanas esperando dicho concierto, yo tenia que ingresar desde las 8 am ,y casi no puedo llegar al lugar para ingresar a mis funciones, parecia que estaba el concierto, eran los fanaticos a la espera, sabian que era cosa de una sola vez en la vida, no le podían dar el lujo de perderse un buen puesto,para divisar dicho acto, esta foto es de ese momento, bien temprano.>
I had to work with his DJ, in fact, I lost the photo where I appear with him.
Me tocó trabajar con el DJ de él, de hecho, perdí la foto donde aparezco con el>
There I was, my job was to make sure he was safe, by the way, I'm a security guard, the DJ, a very nice person, smokes tobacco very often, at the beginning of the concert, we were all thirsty, he had 3 security cords, they brought him bottled water, and if it wasn't for him, we didn't drink water, I sent water to all those who were taking care of him, he looked like he was enjoying his work, it was a unique experience so close to this artist.
Allí estaba yo, mi trabajo era asegurar su seguridad, a propósito, soy agente de seguridad, elDJ , una persona muy amable, fuma tabaco muy seguido, al empezar el concierto, todos teníamos sed, el tenía 3 cordones de seguridad, le trajeron agua embotellada, y si no es por el, no tomamos agua, mando a darle agua a todos los que lo estábamos cuidando, se veía como disfrutaba su trabajo, fue una experiencia única tan cerca de este artista.>
I had a photo, where the bass and the public that was meters away from it, could see it as I less than 5 meters, that photo I can not find it, I took a photo of his back when he was sent back up, the dancers did a work, without precedent.
Yo tenia una foto, donde el bajo y al público que se encontraba a metros de él, lo pudieron ver como yo a menos de 5 metros, esa foto tampoco la encuentro, le tire una foto de espalda cuando lo mandaron a subir otra vez, las bailarinas realizaron un trabajo, sin precedente.>
The only time Havana really brought in a crowd was when the famous CALLE13 group played. The Vedado district was so packed with people come to enjoy the music that it collapsed on July 19, 2010.
De verdad que la única vez que la habana reunió tanto público, fue cuando tocó, el famoso grupo de CALLE13 , que el vedado colapso de toda la multitud que fue a disfrutar a ese querido grupo musical , fue el 19 de julio del 2010.>
Artists you never thought you'd see, you saw that time and, in Cuba, it's very difficult to enjoy another day.
I had the good fortune, for work reasons, to be able to see him in the Protocol Hall, but impossible to approach, it was a magnificent experience to see, how hundreds of people, sang their songs, shouted with euphoria, as if the world were going to end, the way an artist of his level knows that it is to see all that public acclaiming him, but this public that will only see you once, gives you everything when it sees you, this Cuban public, can enjoy you only once, so, to leave all your energy and make that moment something unique and unforgettable, I think the difference of the Cuban public, that vibe at full speed, is only breathed here.
Artistas que nunca pensastes ver, que lo vistes esa vez y , en cuba, muy difícil poder disfrutar algún otro día.>
Yo por cuestion laboral tuve la dicha, luego lo pude ver en el salón de protocolo,pero imposible acercarme, fue una experiencia magnífica ver, como cientos de personas, cantaban sus canciones, gritaban de euforia , como si el mundo se fuera a acabar, el como artista de su nivel, pues sabe que es ver todo ese público aclamando, pero este público que solo te vera una vez, lo entrega todo al verte, este público cubano, podrá desfrutarte una sola vez, así que , a dejar toda su energía y hacer de ese momento, algo único y que no se olvide jamás, creo que la diferencia del público cubano, esa vibra a todo tren, solo se respira aquí.>
