It tells us about daytime live in Brazil, it is a ironical and critical song.

BLUES 2000 has a proposal to carry through one pool of bands who are united in a project of caster for presentations, with members deriving from diverse groups of the new Carioca blues scene. In the basic formation, Blues 2000 is: Tavinho Rangel (vocal and guitar - Blues&Beer), Marcelo Auro (vocal and guitar - Farani Band), Bira (bass - Rio Mississippi), Nilo Batuka (drums - Farani Band), increased of eventual participation and sharing the stage with innumerable guests. The foursome presents a repertoire of classic standards and also some original material into the best style of Jam Session of the smoking bars of Chicago.Band/artist history
The Blues 2000 is a band that is jamming all the time. Formed in late 1999, it started out as an jam meeting celebrating the end of Miller Time & Blues the biggest Blues Festival ever made in Rio de Janeiro and putting together the eleven bands members who have played the whole event, they had made an unforgetable closing night.
The successfull and joyable experience has evolved into being a band for monthly Blues Jam Sessions at any venue in Rio de Janeiro.
In the words of Tavinho Rangel, singer and guitar player who found the group and has conceived its idea, BLUES 2000 has a proposal to carry through one pool of bands joined in a project of caster for presentations, with special guest integrants deriving from diverse groups of the new Carioca blues scene.
Tavinho soon recruited a basic line-up: drummer Nilo Batuka and guitar player Marcelo Auro (both from Farani Blues Band) and bass player Bira (from Rio Mississipi). Eventually, the band also has a horn section that is made up of hard-hitting saxophone players, Alex Bird on tenor sax and the american Dave Sommers on baritone sax.
In Marcelos opinion: This band is much more than just a cover band, these guys have an unusual amount of flexibility and are able to play anything with anybody as you can notice some of the notable guests they have shared the stage with.Have you performed in front of an audience?Of course. This is whats Blues 2000 is all about. The band loves to jam and it is something that only could happen playng live many times.
Every concert we do is a single unforgetable experience as we have different guests in each of our shows, but we could say Buzios and Realengo Cultural Center concerts were very special moments.
Your musical influences
The band has developed a chemistry that is energetic and very much fun to watch and hear. Blues 2000 draws some of its influence from the jump sounds of Buddy Guy, B.B. King and T-Bone Walker as well as a repertoire of original music.Anything else?
The band first CD called "BLUES 2000 Live Jam" was recorded live at Realengo Cultural Center. The bands basic line-up has been added some special guests as Ney Correa and Alessandro Harp (both on harmonicas) and Cleber Coelho (on drums). See more informations about this concert at the reviews section.
