TRIBE

Tribe, Sound Tribe, STS9. By any denomination, the name symbolizes a culture of electrically infused jazz bases melodies which emanate from amplified guitars a 7 string base and a mainframe of technologically advanced sound devices, coupled with a myriad of lighting and visual effects designed to utterly captivate and transport the audience into the highest reaches of the musical dimension. The experience of of partaking in a show put on by Sound Tribe is akin to being on a journey through the evolution of music; the light in the auditorium dims to darkness, the crowd erupts. Soft white light floods the stage. The spectacle is at hand. As the first note reverberates from the speakers, the crowd comes alive with a palpable energy as through suddenly a switch has been flipped, releasing pulsating jolts of 10,000,000 Watts of electricity through through every standing body in the theater. Smashing symbols and a pounding bass line drought out the hots and whistles. The odyssey is underway. The enormous amount of energy projected from the stage transferred to every cell in my body as I began to dance and groove with all those around me. Within moments, i had surrendered every inhibition that was occupying space in my mind and every personal issue weighing down on my soul.

First Post

Let me start by introducing myself, my name is Jose Cueto. The idea of creating a blog first came to me during last summer at the suggestion of my cousin Tommy. His proposition came after a long devout conversation about the musical style and infinatly unique sound of Pink Floyd and the dramatic onstage performances put on by STS9 (Sound Tribe Sector 9). He told me writing reviews of concerts and music would be a great way to get my ideas out there and to gain a better understanding of music as well. Since then i have chronicled all the concerts i have attended and i have also made accounts of countless ventures along with a heap of garbled and distorted personal accounts that would stack up asshole deep to a ten foot Indian. In other words; I simply wish to write this blog in order to not only express my own personal opinions on a variation of musical subjects, but also attempt to articulate the myriad of thoughts that churn about in my head.
