There comes a point in your life when you realize
who matters, who never did, who won't anymore,
and who always will. So don't worry about people
from your past, there's a reason why they didn't
make it to your future!

I miss my friends from Europe. You all know who you are!

p.s. - Nuno, se vires isto: temos borracheira e caldo verde na rave? hehehe, quantos chao? benham eles...

Current mood:  shocked
Category: Life

I found out last night that Eric Laufer left us to join another level. He was not a friend of mine and I only meet him a few times. Even tho I was devastaded with the news. I can't imagine what his family and close friends are goin thru... someone soo young and soo full of talent leaving like that. Things like this aren't supose to happen, but they do.

I admit that I cried last night...
This all thing make me think about who we are and what we do. Life is a precious thing and so are the ones we love. Don't forget that one day you'r here and another day you might be gone.

Cherish the ones you love everyday, respect and you'll be respected, don't be selfish and make sure that if you leave this world you'll leave behind people who will know that you cared.

I'm blessed that I'm still around to enjoy life. I hope you feel blessed too...

My thoughts and prayers go to Eric's family and friends.

Ruby Ann - "Train To Satanville" (Wild Records) 




Lembram-se dos The Boppin'Boozers? Ruby Ann era a menina que contribuía com a sua excelente voz e postura para dar nome ao projecto de Coimbra, que conseguiu alguma popularidade, mesmo lá fora.
Como em tudo na vida, o grupo pôs ponto final à sua existência. Ruby Ann fez as malas e partiu para França. Sempre com a musica no coração.
Continuou a cantar e a escrever canções. O ano passado editou o seu primeiro CD em nome individual.
Mantendo-se fiel aos seus princípios Ruby Ann continua a seguir a sua linha orientadora de pensamentos. Oferece-nos um disco com muito de rockabilly, onde os anos 50 estão bem retratados. Depois continua bem vivo dentro de si o amor pelo country e por uma certa cultura americana. Temos igualmente por aqui rock e do bom, e aqui e ali algumas pitadas de blues.
O que continua a apaixonar neste conjunto todo, é a voz de Ruby Ann. Uma voz que se agarra com força a este som. Parece que Ruby Ann nasceu para cantar este tipo de música. Tem o timbre exacto e a postura certa.
Estamos assim perante um disco, que sem inovar, nos consegue agradar, e muito.
Mas que raio, como queriam vocês que a menina inovasse ao fazer aquilo que faz?! Até é melhor, que Ruby Ann se mantenha fiel à fórmula original em tudo o que cria, sem inventar muito. E convém que Ruby Ann , não deixe que as novas tecnologias matem a graça destas canções. Sim, porque este som se quer a soar a velho!… Aqui o estúdio não distorceu o espírito da época. Ainda bem…
E assim, "Train To Satanville" é um disco revivalista, que nos cria imagens cinematográficas na cabeça. Uma tela onde a velha América é a personagem principal.
Deixem-se pois embalar por esta nostalgia saudável e não percam este comboio para Satanville.

A clothing label and online boutique selling t-shirt designs with a rockabilly and kitsch Las Vegas theme. Legendary legend Vince Ray has come up with an exclusive 'Ruby' design for men's and women's tees, and there will be tank tops and sweatshirts added all in good time, my pretty, all in good time. Top rockabilly musicians wear their 'Ruby' tees with pride in their hearts and a drink in their hands. Michael from Hot Boogie Chillun, Cash O'Riley, Dazza from Slim Slip & The Sliders and statuesque drinking monster Peter Sandberg from the Go-Getters are frequently spotted in theirs - why aren't you?

So, if you want to wear a Tshirt with Ruby on it just go for it! hehehe!

I just ordered a 'Ruby's Casino'!! That way i'll be easy to spot!

"Fantastic  rockabilly outfit from Portugal ! Ruby Ann can wall with the best of them & then sing a ballad that'll move you to tears."
In Viva las Vegas
"If had been pre-warned that the first band on Friday was a Portuguese combo with a female singer i would have been tempted to turn up later. Good job that i didn't; the beautiful RUBY ANN and her BOPPIN' BOOZERS were an inspired choice for the opening act. With a powerful voice that had none of that squeaky shrillness we associate with some of the rockabilly gals playing the circuit, Ruby Ann set a high standart for the following acts to meet. Their own numbers were distnguished and the Boppin' Boozers' talent transcended their cheesy, cliched name."
