The Rober Bodegas Show
Long story short, yesterday I went to a recently-discovered club called Babel here in Lugo and I attended a 2-hour show from Rober Bodegas, one of the best showman-speaker-whatever anyone could find today in Galicia.
I already knew him, as I watched pieces of his show both on TV and YouTube so, as soon as I noticed he was going to be here, I decided I had to go to see him live.
I arrived at the club almost 45 min. before the show and me and my girlfriend got 2 tickets (12 eur., nice price). We got some drinks and wait patienly until the show begins. A little bit later emereci met us there and we spent the time until the show just talking and drinking.
The Babel club is a really nice place, with that kind of atmosphere nice clubs have, I mean, low lights (even we have candles in there), nice music, a theater-like room and very very very nice people to talk with. I've to say that the smoke in the air was too much for my like after we spent there the first one and a half hour, but hey, that's part of a real club too! :D
Just in time (perhaps 5-10 minutes late), the show began. It is that kind of show where the showman begin talking about his life, just a quickly introduction about himself, stories from when he was a little boy, his friends, etc. In fact, it is very similar to that one from Luis Piedrahita (I've post some lines about it).
After the quick introduction about himself, he proceed talking about different stories, most of them related to daily issues everyone usually have to deal with. It is very funny to see how he is capable of linking two different topics so the story seems to be fluid and it is even funnier to see how he links everthing with sex :D.
I really enjoyed the show and I couldn't stop laughing all the time. You know, it was not the usual show you could see on the TV or youtube, thanks to some people from the public that distract him, so he had to stop talking and he had to do some unexpected jokes. For example, after the first 20-30 minutes, suddenly, a man just loose consciousness and a group of people had to get him out of the club. It was nothing to worry about (as someone told us later), but Rober has to stop the show and he began to do some jokes about "the show was too much for that guy" or "he was laughing too much, that's the result" and things like that.
After a little stop (just perfect to get more drinks!) he got back to his stories, but suddenly he stopped again, as there was a girl in the room whose laughs were louder than Rober's voice. Trust me, you never heard such a noisy laughing!. Again, he just did some jokes about her.
The show ended with his famous story about yogúrs (es|gl link), where he criticized the way companies use advertising to sell us some products as the best things we could have to live longer, be smarter, etc while most of the time that's not true (or at least not totally true).
A really nice show, I recommend it to everyone, thnx Rober for made me laugh for so long :D
Oh!, I almost forgot. The funny-and-laughing night was complete as I found the perl car while going back home:
