It's been a while since we've done a South American show, so in this episode we're gonna chat about one from the last tour cycle way back in 2018. Of course we know how crazy intense the Brazilian crowds are, and the crowd at this show in Rio de Janeiro would once again control this night. Joining us to talk about it is friend and Patron Dukes Wooters who traveled from Seattle to be there that night. Also, since we're talking about Brazil, we'll share a message from the band Black Circle about their experiences at this show, including an attempt to get their lead singer Lenny to sing with Ed!
A lot of the content in this episode will feature Dukes story of his trip and what was happening in Brazil at the time. This show came shortly after councilwoman Marielle Franco was murdered which led to Brazil undergoing a major transfer of power. This was not lost upon the band as they addressed and paid tribute to the situation, clearly aware and looking out for Brazil's best interests. Powerful political and progressive songs such as Can't Deny Me, Leaving Here and a W.M.A. tag off Daughter were played as a reaction.
But this show had many of the key fun moments you expect from Brazilian crowds, lots of singing, lots of chanting, Do The Evolution, Given To Fly and Black sounding otherworldly. But the band also broke out some of the deeper tracks such as Garden and Immortality. Having Josh Klinghoffer and Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers join the party was another awesome added bonus to make this night special for the locals.
