With a clear heart and pinch of pride

Post for new year’s wishes: not entirely unexpected, but very sincere nonetheless. 2008 will bring about a lot of news, including some pretty major ones. But this is no time to speak about them: today is a day for wishes and fond messages. Another year is past, our lives have moved on, and music has not stopped either. On the contrary! Andrea has shot the movie on the Mondine choir and us – Andrea, when are you going to finish it? 🙂 – we started collaborating with a very fine British agent, we have a new drummer that the world envies, Jessica has made a great solo album.. For me the best sign of life in 2007 has maybe been the start of an orchestra of piva emilianas (!) called, appropriately, “le pive nel sacco”, which is totally untranslateable. Sure, we are still the flag carriers of a very marginal, semidead culture, but we are holding our ground, and we can enter 2008 with a clear heart and even a pinch of pride. Thank you all, thank you so much for sharing this with us in 2007, stay close to us in 2008 too. Knock knock. Hello? Mr. 2008? May we?

Le Pive nel Sacco in all their glory
