Great performances. Small venue (Theatre d’Octagonal in Pully). No warmup band. The music started 5 minutes after the stated time – they are in Switzerland afterall.
Played from Lunatico: “Diferente” – the backdrop came from Diferente music video (see youtube video below).
Also from Lunatico: “Mi Confesion” (they did not bring the rappers with them, see it here -> Mi Confesion on Youtube. A fine mix of electronica+tango+rap !)
From their latest album – Tango 3.0: “Rayuela”, “Tango Square”, “La Gloria”. They merged “Panamericana” (from their new album) with “Triptico” (one of their most popular).
Tango Square
I was hoping they would have some tango dancers. Nope.
Their rendition of the Last Tango in Paris has been a crowd pleaser. But they did not play it. Watch it here.

They moved the lettering on stage: TANGO becomes GOTAN.
They did two encores, first with Santa Maria (del Buen Ayre) from La Revancha del Tango then Peligro. The show was two hours long. I had a great time.

Personally I have never heard about this event before so it was really interesting to read it and to know something attractive and new.
