Far Away Pavilions... (Expo in Milan, Italy, 2015) ~♥☮♫LPM(km*) ~♥☮♫

NOTE to Readers...

All my writeups, from October 12 to the 20th have disappeared! (;o(*  a real disaster!  It all happened starting from Tuesday, October 20th...  I had updated Kazakhistan and it all crashed!
I have reported issue and problem to the Google Help Team, so I really hope to get everything
restored.  If not, I'll just have to write everything again...including pictures too...

What a tragedy...

Kazakhistan, Korea, Columbia, UK, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Israel, Malaysia, Angola, Thailand, China, and many others all gone...my work... (silent tears but fingers crossed)

October 20, 2015/Tues.

THANK you to the Google Team Help center!  Mishka, Great help!  I really appreciate this...At least something is restored and that is precious! (October 21, 2015)

The EXPO Experience: as seen by an Alien

Recently, during my travels,  I went (well, it was in June 2015) to see the Expo in Milan, Italy (Europe).

It was a nice experience, no doubt, but, in my opinion, one day is not enough:  one needs to go back several times, to be able to see the sites carefully, in detail, without having to *race* through them!  I was happily surprised to see some of the different pavilions, and the countries involved, such as Iran, Kazakistan, and others.  The whole world at your feet!  What an awesome adventure...

It was with great sadness, instead, that I looked at the Tibet area:  they were hit by the tragedy of the earthquake, with so many people being killed, and a country on their knees, being wiped out by natural causes...force majeur... (;o(* 

Tibet cleverness and sadness at the same time...March on! (Photo credits:  Melody Fox, June 2015)

They stopped everything , in the pavilion, all the construction work, etc., etc., to go back to their country, to help their own and others...  Great architectural job, that, unfortunately (or luckily) was finished by workers from Brescia.

It brought tears to my eyes...  Stay strong Tibet:  Thou shall return into the light!

What was beautiful, was the part of the Italian section, especially The Tree of Life, planned and brought to *life* by Marco Balich, a guy (or rather now he is known for other things), whom I met during my journalistic years, when he organized concerts, et all.

At night, this beautiful (technological) tree is lit up in all its glory, and has a light and sound show, which is mesmerizing!  It was the feature I loved most!  All those beautiful colors, that magical Music!  Indeed, a masterpiece of art, and technology at its highest peaks.  Sponsored by Coldiretti, Pirelli, and the city town hall of Brescia...

This is a cool one...Fuchsia Tree of Life, with fountains et all... (Photo credits:  the Princess of Rock, June 20, 2015/Sat.)  Sights and Sounds...

Definitely, my favorite!  Bravo Italy! (;o)*

I have posted some pictures for you readers/guests of my blog,  to see...
Some other details and updates, will be added at random.

The Expo has counted millions and millions of visitors so far (it opened its gates to the world on May 1, 2015 and will close at our Halloween, October 31, 2015).  The first month brought in approx. 2.7 million visitors from all over the globe.  This year, if you can afford to, plan a trip to Europe, to see the Expo in Milan, Italy.  Worth the visit!  NOT  to be missed!

Summertime...

sadness?  I'm not sure if that's really what it is...it's a feeling of *sadness* and longing for my passing years, I guess...

I haven't written here since February (2015)...Demotivation?  or what?

Anyway, these days I've been listening frequently to a single by the Smashing Pumpkins, entitled *Bullet with Butterfly Wings*, a track backdating to 1995.  I love the beat...the video is kind of eerie, but that's the way Billy Corgan likes his stuff! lol! (;o)*

...The world is a vampire...  (sometimes I think it is...or rather, some of its inhabitants:  sucking the life out of you!)

May you all walk in sunshine...

p.s.:  one of the reasons that I seldom come in here is also because no one comments... (;o(*  So many visitors, but no comments...







(just a reminder:  13.268 visitors)

Moby's *Big Dream* and...maybe, yours too?! (~_*)

...The time has come to say the words...

This is a reversion Moby made of a David Lynch song from the past, entitled *The Big Dream*...I love this *noir* version, featuring a fantastic Mindy Jones on vocals (and facial acting). This short video was also shot by Moby ~ ♥ ~
 
All that Moby does, in my opinion, is awesome! as all that Moby produces or makes: He has that magical touch that glides over musical notes turning them into special sounds that will take you into different dimensions...

I had the opportunity and honor to interview Moby many years ago, and also see some of his live acts.  A Great Artist indeed!

Idol Power (by Melody Fox, aka the Princess of Rock)

Idol Power!

 

First new single (*Can’t Bring Me Down*) from Billy Idol’s new album:

 

Billy Idol has been very busy these past months and still is!  What with his book of memoirs *Dancing with Myself*,  what with his new album *The Kings and Queens of the Underground*, and all his touring around the universe…well, you can feel that Idol Power, all the way through!

Talking about touring, Billy (and guitarist Steve Stevens), in November, will be in Great Britain, in Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, in Switzerland, in Italy…Mind you, there will only be one venue in Italy (promoted by D’Alessandro and Galli), on November 23, 2014 (Sunday), at a club called
FABRIQUE.   After Italy, Billy and company will be heading back to the States, starting January 21, 2015, in New Orleans, La. So far there have been rave reviews, with sold out gigs. The King of Punk and Rock is rocking down all the houses with that whiplash smile that is always there, and those Rocky tunes that will make you want more more more!

See ya, Billy! I interviewed you in 1986, when you came out with *Sweet Sixteen*…and I’ve been *following* you ever since…When I have my own gigs, as DJ, I always put in a couple of your tunes: the other night, I mixed in *Mony Mony*, plus another tune later in the evening *White Wedding*! I look forward to seeing you soon!

Wow!

It's 9999!!!!!!!  The counter has hit 9999 views... chuckle chuckle

The only song that gets a bit close to that number, in my mind, is Prince's *1999*, a hit
from 1982...

Thanks to ALL for the *hits*...wish it was the same number in...*clicks! lol

Love Peace Music
