Italian singer Serena Brancale plays in Terni’s ancient Roman Amphitheater, July 30th, 2024

Italian singer Serena Brancale played at Terni’s ancient Roman Amphitheater Faustus (it dates back to 30-32 AD and could once seat up to 10,000 spectators).

The 35 year-old pop, jazz and R&B singer from Bari is currently on her “Baccala’ Tour”. Terni, which is famous for the birthplace of St. Valentine, is located about 100 km from Rome.

Brancale’s concert was preceded by Italian St. singer Cristina Russo and her quartet.

IT'S ONLY ROCK'N'ROLL (BUT I CERTAINLY LIKE IT!)

This is (yet another!) blog of a rock’n’roll concert aficionado. At the time of writing (March, 2016), I’ve “only” seen 385 concerts, having started wayyyy back in 1976 (circa) with Kiss in Winnipeg, Canada during Kissmania! I also have the small record of so far having seen in concert three "Sirs": Paul McCartney (three times), Elton John (twice) and Mick Jagger (four times)!

Why the statue of AC/DC's Angus Young (we were born in the very same year, me only 3 days before him!)? Well, probably because if I've seen soooo many concerts in my life, what certainly encouraged me to do so was the AC/DC concert at the Winnipeg Arena in the late 1970s: that night I got to see the band complete with the late, great Bon Scott (he would die shortly after in February, 1980). After the Beatles, I think it's safe to say that my all-time favorite band is AC/DC, and I've been listening to their music since only 1975. That's indeed a long time. I figure also that the day that I WON'T go see an AC/DC concert (I've seen them 4 times so far) will be the day that I'm REALLY old!

Enjoy the pics and the write-ups (and if anyone wants I'll gladly send them the complete list of all the concerts I've seen so far)!
