Me hace gracia las alarmas que han tenido practicamente todo el Last por lo de la radio de pago ¿qué no sabiais que no es la primera vez que sucede? Pandora ya sufrió lo mismo... pero yo sigo escuchandola.

Vamos a ver, la mejor manera de contraatacar, no es dejar de hacer scroblings y gilipolleces de esas, aquí está la manera de darles en la llaga:

Os alarmais enseguida, pensar en soluciones que les duelan de verdad, y esta es de las que si nos pillan nos ganariamos una expulsión a lo grande del Last, pero nos iremos con honores.

Con esto, podreis seguir escuchando la radio on-line cambiando vuestra IP, así me funciona en Pandora y nunca me ha fallado.

Así que... ¡comience la revolución!]]> http://www.last.fm/user/SilverAnubis/journal/2009/03/28/2lpev2_%C2%A1tonto_el_%C3%BAltimo%21_la_revoluci%C3%B3n_de_una_radio_de_pago..._la_soluc%C3%AD%C3%B3n_sin_pagar_ni_un_duro.#comments CD Hoar http://www.last.fm/user/jj-chub/journal/2008/10/26/28qs4y_cd_hoar/group Sun, 26 Oct 2008 12:14:32 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/jj-chub/journal/2008/10/26/28qs4y_cd_hoar
A list of all the music that I have purchased over the years (that is; the actual CD and booklet, etc. - not burnt copies or downloads). From the shameful "what was I thinking...?" to the music that I enjoy today.

Bette Midler’s New York Restoration Project (NYRP) honors renowned chef, Alice Waters, at her Hulaween Gala 2008, held at The Waldorf-Astoria in New York City.

Bette Midler founded the nonprofit New York Restoration Project (NYRP) in 1995 in the belief that clean, green neighborhoods are fundamental to the quality of life, and that every community in New York City deserves an oasis of natural beauty. Seeing many parks and open spaces in dire need of cleanup and restoration, Ms. Midler created NYRP to be the “conservancy of forgotten places,” particularly in New York City’s underserved communities. - Courtesy of NYRP.org

For the rest of my life, the one song that people will remember -- regardless -- is "Conga" . . . I never get tired of singing it. It never gets old for me.

[She was the first pop singer to perform for a Pope.] And a woman at that. Apparently Pope John Paul II and his boys -- is that what you call them? -- loved one of my songs and thought I was puting spiritual messages in my music. I'm not religious as such. Dogma and I don't get along. They knew all that, but the Pope was celebrating 50 years as a priest, and he asked for me. Quite an audience -- bishops, cardinals, a handful of nuns -- and me, covered from neck to ankles.

Well, you know, in the first place I'm a pretty private person. But I can assure you that I'm no saint by any means of the imagination. You know, we go to parties and we drink like any other people. But I think the key word is balance. I've been married (to keyboardist Emilio Estefan) for 28 years; we've been together for 30 years. I had my son when I was very young and my priority has always been my family. My husband has been very supportive. We live a very normal life, something that may be boring to some people. But it's a great life! We travel a lot. My son is 26 and my dauther is 11. Family is the center of our lives. We try to stay out of the tabloids.

answer to question "How do you maintain your clean image, something not every artist can do?"
I just want to be happy, joyous and free.
I Just Wanna be Happy lyrics Music should always be a means of bridging gaps and uniting people. The beauty of music is that it can -- and should -- gather a wide variety of concepts in a way that's universal.

What happened is the music listener has become much more of a connoisseur and a king of his own destiny. You can no longer shove an album down their throats and say, 'Here's 15 songs, four of them are good, you know. Spend 20 dollars on this CD.' It's not going to happen. That's what has taken the music industry down.

It's that i'll grow old and senile and wear those particular chaps in my house with long, curly, gray hair and my butt at my ankles. People do strange things when they get old. Can you imagine, I put them on and start yelling: "I'm the Conga Queen!, What a nightmare!"

Estefan was chosen for her philanthropic, professional and cultural accomplishments and will receive the honor at a star-studded concert and tribute dinner on Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2008, at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston. A portion of the proceeds from the evening’s tribute dinner will benefit the Gloria Estefan Foundation as well as St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. The prestigious event will be produced by 13-time GRAMMY winner Phil Ramone and will precede the 9th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards, which will be held at the Toyota Center in Houston on Thursday, Nov. 13, and will be broadcast live on the Univision Television Network at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central.

“The Latin Recording Academy and its Board of Trustees are elated to recognize Gloria Estefan as an extraordinary Latina woman, humanitarian and talented musician who has made a global impact on music and culture,” said Latin Recording Academy President Gabriel Abaroa. “She is one of Latin music’s most enduring icons, and we are privileged to be honoring such a dedicated, generous, and gifted lady.”

Estefan has been a force within the music industry for three decades with 22 albums and more than 90 million records sold. She began her career collaborating with the Miami Latin Boys band. Estefan became an integral part of the band and was essential in creating the group’s new sound and by 1980, she and the group became known as Miami Sound Machine and were signed to a record label. They went on to release albums such as Primitive Love, which sold more than 3 million units in the United States alone and produced the hit singles “Bad Boy,” “Words Get In The Way” and “Conga.” The next two albums, Let It Loose (1987) and Cuts Both Ways (1989), were both worldwide chart-topping sensations, and produced such hits as “Can’t Stay Away From You,” “Rhythm Is Gonna Get You,” “Anything For You,” “1-2-3,” “Don’t Wanna Lose You,” and “Get On Your Feet.”

After a bus accident that left her partially paralyzed in March 1990, Estefan, against all odds, triumphantly returned to the stage with a 17-country tour and her chart-topping album, Into The Night. In 1993 she returned to her Latin music roots and released Mi Tierra, which garnered Estefan her first GRAMMY Award. She performed the official theme song, “Reach,” at the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, which became the first single from a new English-language album Destiny. Released in 2001, Alma Caribeña earned Estefan a GRAMMY Award for Best Traditional Tropical Latin Album and a Latin GRAMMY for Best Short Form Music Video. Her most recent album, 90 Millas, pays tribute to the roots of Cuban music and gave Estefan the opportunity to work with fellow legendary artists such as Sheila E., Andy García, Israel “Cachao” Lopez, Johnny Pacheco, Carlos Santana, and many others.

Not only is Estefan an award-winning singer/songwriter and musician, she is also a compassionate philanthropist who established the Gloria Estefan Foundation, which aims to promote good health, education and cultural development. One of the main benefactors of the Gloria Estefan Foundation is the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis — the leading research center for spinal cord injuries. Estefan served as chairwoman for a capital campaign that raised more than 40 million dollars to build the Lois Pope Life Center neurological research facility. The foundation also raises funds for other organizations and has donated millions of dollars to a number of charities including the American Red Cross, UNICEF and the Miami Children’s Hospital Brain Institute.

Estefan is the ninth Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year honoree and is the first woman to receive the honor. She joins a prestigious list of previous honorees, which includes Julio Iglesias, Ricky Martin, and Carlos Santana.
