Uh, yeah, I might. But just in case, let's say it once again: Even though you'll hardly believe it, "Last Train to London" was a major hit in Argentina, Chile and Peru. And that's because it's easily one of the finest songs ever. (I still can't get why the rest of the world didn't get it back in the day).

02 - Momma (a sample was used here in Argentina by a legend, the late Gustavo Cerati) Hey moon are you from Argentina, if so do you know Helmut83 ? Yes! I'm from Argentina, but I don't think so, I live in the south of the country, and I don't travel too much to Bs As...

You do well, my friend. I think if I weren't from Buenos Aires myself, I wouldn't set foot on this damned city. May I ask which part of the south you are from? I have family in Rio Negro.

I totally can get why the rest of the world didn't "get" it, it seems perfectly reasonable to me. Still, the rest of the world adopted "Mr Blue Sky" as ELO's flagship song, which is something I can't get either...

Reminds me of a Jasper Carrot story about when he was in the US and as soon as they knew he was English,asked "English huh? hey! do you know a Mrs Smith from Blackpool?"

Oh, sometimes it's a bit sad, because of the big number of bands and concert I've lost... Really?? Haha this is great! I'm from Bariloche!! Don't tell me they live here too!!

Yeah, when it comes to fun (concerts included) nothing comes close to Buenos Aires, I'll give you that. But you are lucky, Bariloche is one of the most beautiful places I've been to, probably the most beautiful city (of a certain size), and I've been along all the Andes range from Jujuy to Santa Cruz. Plus these days I envy you when we have 37 °C and I see on TV that Bariloche has 25° C. No, my relatives are from Choele Choel; much more savage.

It's a nice place, but it's getting more and more "full of vehicles", and that's not good for a still small city. Haha 25º are really hot for us, and trust me, even 20º is very nice... Mmmm I traveled near Choele Choel, but I never stopped there...

Mmmm I traveled near Choele Choel, but I never stopped there... Well, I haven't been to Bariloche for more than a decade now, so you surely know better than me. The beauty of the place is outstanding, but I reckon the amount of tourists must be a ball-busting factor; and the graduate trips too. I've been in Bariloche in both summer and winter, and in summer the weather is dreamly, it couldn't be any better. We porteños get fried in January (and we are not even close to being among hottest places in Argentina).

And the winter is ok, last winter we had lot of snow!! I mean, lot of snow. It's hard to see when autumn and spring start. October was son nice, listening When The Night Comes all the time, haha
