REMEZCLA » PERFORMANCE - NEW YORK » Event: Tosca
The Avengers killed at the box office this past weekend - and is really, really awesome - but it's a team of white dudes. (One of them is sometimes green.) In other words; where are the Latin superheroes? Well, we at Remezcla have compiled a list of superheroes who do in fact, look like us.
In this interview, guitarist Leo Mintek of New York's future rock quintet Outernational had plenty to say about imperialism, capitalism, immigrants rights, and revolution in this exclusive interview.

Giacomo Puccini’s classic La Tosca will be playing at The Metropolitan Opera till October 17th. If you attend, not only will you be dazzled by acclaimed Argentinian tenor Marcelo Alavarez, you’ll also be able to put an end to our curiosity here at Remezcla as to why this show was booed its opening night. Don’t worry: there was nothing wrong with the singers. Instead, anger was aimed at new director Luc Bondy and his apparently lacking production team… mmmm… any takers?
“‘Tosca,’ first performed in 1900, takes place a century before that in Rome during the Napoleonic Wars. In three short acts set in a church, a palace and a prison, it tells the tale of singer Floria Tosca, her lover, painter Mario Cavaradossi, and Baron Scarpia, chief of the secret police – none of whom survives to the final curtain.”-www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/22/met-opera-booed-richard-p_n_294341.html
