 Line-up : Alfonso Digón :Guitar /Sergio Gavin :Drums /Amadeo Digón:Vocals/Manu Reno : Bass/Jordi Kasteis : Keyboards.

Last Saturday 02/26/22, I had the opportunity to return to theMescaleros band, which presented us with their latest album,"No Fear, No Limits" published last year by the company record label The Fish Factory. The band was supporting Star Mafia Boy, whom I could not see, since I had to catch
the last train to my house, which is 60 km from Barcelona.I wanted to see Mescaleros present his album live,since on this occasion the band has included keyboards to their songs,and not only to those of hislast album, but also to the rest of the band repertoire. They started with "Dreams" from their last work,and there I already saw the great instrumentalist that is Jordi on keyboards, they followed him
"Portrait" and "Right Now" of my favorite songs of the band. "Invincible"and "Aways" from his last album, a powerful song with those guitar riffs by Alfonso and the rhythmic section of Manu on bass and Sergio on drums.

It was followed by songs from old works and hymns of the band such as "Cries in the night","Sick and thick", moving on to other songs from his last album such as "So many clouds" a very catchy song, followed by "The Dark side of my soul" a mid-tempo song that I really like, the voice by Amadeo, impressive as always, he has an impressive vocal range,the next to fall was "Wiser" very Hard Rock and live sure that It will fall along with its most emblematic themes. The next theme gave us the skin of
hen when Amadeo dedicated the song "Walking with the Angels" to Manuel Alferez (Photographer and bass player of Decibelios) and Lemmy Peralta (Dr, Crue, ARMA-T..) deceased last year, a great detail from the band to two greats of our scene applause from the people concentrated there for that great dedication by the band. To end the concert, the songs "The Feeling","Fire" and the great
"Freedom for all".

Without a doubt, a great concert for the people who were there. Among the public I could see several musicians from the Catalan scene such as Felix Bustillo, Javier Jabato, J0e Perez and his wife, members of Tribute and Meinstein, and friends who for the I haven't seen a pandemic in a long time. A great performance as always from Mescaleros and looking forward to seeing you again soon. I felt bad I didn't stay to see Star Mafia Boy but I hope to see you soon. 9´5/10
