¿ERES DE LOS QUE ESCUCHA MÚSICA O VIDEOS DE TU CELULAR A ALTO VOLUMEN EN EL TRANSPORTE PÚBLICO? Normas de convivencia y educación: Compartir el espacio público requiere empatía. Reproducir contenido multimedia sin dispositivos de audio personales impone tus gustos y ruidos a decenas de pasajeros atrapados en el mismo vagón o autobús. No está bien utilizar el celular con el altavoz activado en el transporte público; de hecho, se considera una de las principales faltas de respeto y convivencia ciudadana en los espacios compartidos. Escuchar música, ver videos (como TikToks o Reels) o responder llamadas en voz alta altera la tranquilidad de los demás pasajeros, quienes se ven obligados a escuchar contenido ajeno. #CronicasDeBanqueta #arturotrejo

“A Horse with No Name” was written by Dewey Bunnell for America’s 1971 debut album. The song was first called “Desert Song,” Bunnell has said the nameless horse was a metaphor for a way out of life’s confusion into somewhere quiet. He did not know that “horse” was slang for heroin, and some American stations banned it anyway. Released in late 1971 in the UK and early 1972 in the US, it reached No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also topped the chart in Canada. The vocal and the acoustic feel were so close to Neil Young that many listeners assumed it was his, and by coincidence, it was this song that replaced Young’s “Heart of Gold” at No. 1. Bunnell has said he never denied the influence, but the backlash from Young’s fans still stung.

Sid Vicious recorded "My Way" in 1978 for The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, the film closely associated with Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren. Rather than imitating Frank Sinatra's elegant interpretation, Vicious transformed the classic into a deliberately chaotic and confrontational performance. His sarcastic delivery and the song's explosive finale perfectly embodied the rebellious and self-destructive image that made him one of punk's most notorious figures. Released in 1978 as part of The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle soundtrack, "My Way" was originally adapted into English by Paul Anka from the 1967 French song Comme d'habitude and was famously recorded by Frank Sinatra in 1969. Although Sid Vicious's version was never a major chart hit, it became one of the most iconic reinterpretations in punk history, thanks to its provocative music video and its enduring status as a symbol of the punk movement's irreverent spirit.

In 1974, the Whisky A Go-Go on Sunset Boulevard was still the must-visit hangout for any rockstar passing through Los Angeles. That year, three very different personalities ended up crossing paths there. Alice Cooper, already a superstar, Ray Manzarek, keyboardist for The Doors, a band that had made history a few years earlier by playing at that very club, and Iggy Pop, the wild force behind The Stooges. The three represented different layers of the Los Angeles scene: Manzarek came from Morrison’s psychedelic and poetic universe, Cooper had taken rock into the realm of spectacle and theatrical horror, and Iggy embodied the raw, punk energy that was beginning to take shape. Seeing them together in a single photo, drinks in hand, was almost a visual summary of an entire era of California rock. The Whisky, barely a few years old, had already earned its place as the stage and meeting place that brought together all these generations of Los Angeles rock.

“Pet Sematary” is from Ramones’s 1989 album Brain Drain. Written by Dee Dee Ramone, the song was inspired by Stephen King’s novel Pet Sematary and written for the 1989 film adaptation. It became one of the band's biggest commercial successes, reaching #4 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart and becoming one of the Ramones' best-known songs. The song came about after Stephen King, a longtime Ramones fan, invited the band to his home in Maine while they were on tour. According to the story, Dee Dee Ramone read an advance copy of the novel overnight and wrote the song the following day. The film's success helped introduce the Ramones to a broader audience.

“El Loco” Valdés cantó junto a Chava Flores la canción “Pichicuás” (un clásico costumbrista sobre el juego de canicas) en el programa **El Show del Loco Valdés**, transmitido en los años 70 por Canal 5 de Televisa. En esta actuación, ambos interpretan el tema al ritmo de mariachi, acompañados en ocasiones por invitados como Mauricio Garcés, en un segmento que destacaba el humor y la música popular mexicana de la época. Este dueto se popularizó gracias a videos rescatados tras la muerte de Valdés en 2020, y forma parte de la rica colaboración entre el comediante y el cronista musical Chava Flores. “Pichicuás y Cupertino Se pusieron con canicas a jugar. Pichicuás que pide mano; Cupertino, “rintincola, cola y tras” Una raya y un hoyito Que pintaron en el patio del solar. Se advirtió que “Tres y el fuerte”, Que “prohibido comer mano” Y que “Al quede no tirar” Que “las chiras son al tiro” Que “hay calacas y palomas” Y “El ahogado muerto está”. Mi Pichicuás te sigue Cupertino. Mi Pichicuás te quiere calaquear. Si ya las traes, apúntale con tino. Mi Pichicuás lo tienes que ponchar. Pichicuás y Cupertino Las canicas se empezaron a ganar. Como se jugó de a devis Buenos tiros se cambiaron de lugar. Cupertino que hace trampas Y hartos dengues pa’ ciscar al Pichicuás. Pichicuás que se lo poncha, Cupertino que hace concha Y no le quiere pagar. Mis canicas me las pagas y que empiezan las trompadas, ¡Ay, mamá, qué feo es jugar!”

Alice in Chains performing "Man in the Box" on ABC's In Concert in 1991 is one of their best live performances. Layne Staley was incredible, and Jerry Cantrell's guitar tone is absolutely crushing. Have you seen it?
