The music is a place and the place is the music


  I would like to visit Glasgow, Scotland. Why I choose this far-off destination? First of all, I would like to comment that my favorite bands are Belle and Sebastian and Camera Obscura. Amazingly both come from the largest and populous city of Scotland: the beautiful and colorful Glasgow. Therefore, the greatest reason to choose Glasgow like…is to know how the environment (people, typical food, buildings, etc.) of the city influences the music style and lyrics creations of the members of the bands. I
 It seems strange to think that my favorite style of music comes from to the same place and my purpose would be to discover this mystery going across the avenues of the third most populous city in the United Kingdom. Obviously, I will do my best to reach a meeting with them (I would not lose anything trying it). If my efforts don’t work, Glasgow has many other attractions (unfortunately none of them is better than knowing my idols) like biggest castles, modern buildings, pretty parks and canals, etc.

  1. it's an interesting option to visit the place where your idols come from...that way you can understand their music better. I like this idea.

  2. Hi Horacio, I have heard about Belle and Sebastian, but I didn't know that they are from Scotland, far less from Glasgow, I just know that city because I had heard about Glasgow Music Festival. Well, I hope someday you can go there, anyway if you couldn't know your favorite bands, you can know the beauty of Scotland as you said.
