Wust El Balad

It was one of their best concerts...it was a great cultural event...yesterday I went with my friends to the party in Sakeyt Abd El Meneem Elsawy in Zamalek...their lyrics are original ...their vocals...the way they mix oriental music with modern Egyptian music...raggie...jazz...rock...and chill out
It was so crowded that not all of us had a seat...for me it is better to stand and involve myself in the atmosphere of music
Hany Adel dedicated the song " Soal Wahed " to his love " Hala Shiha "...people were screaming as usual for " Antika "..." Magnoun " was also fabulous...Ismail Fawzy is really talented...Adham El Saeid was a maestro...and Assad Nessim was brilliant in his solo guitar playing...the audience wanted more and more...
Many people want to know why they still do not have a CD after all these years of success...they simply have not gotten a good offer... I can not believe that a precious outstanding Egyptian band like Wust El Balad could not have the opportunity to have a worldwide fame
At the same time I think not having a CD makes Wust El Balad a unique band ... so you have to see and experience their beautiful down-to-earth parties

watching the football game " El Ahly vs El Zamalek " on the big screen before the show

our favourite Egyptian band has arrived

the show will start soon

the star of the night...Hany Adel

foreigners were enjoying their time

young audience

a group of girls I met were making a documentary film about Wust El Balad and talking about the problems Egyptian bands are facing today

people were amazed by the music

Ismail on the big screen

Assad Nessim concentrating and Hany Adel competing

the break

he is one of the biggest fans...he can not miss a concert of Wust El Balad

sitting on the grass and watching

ya salam aleek ya Adham

people do not want to go home

يا بيه...ده أنا فاهم كل حاجه

أنا البواب
بتاع النهارده
بتاع عصر التكنو- لوبيا
معايا موبايل
بكل الرنات
و البول- فول- نيك زنات
انا صعيدى أه
بس باكل عيش كزير
وبحب فيروز اناناس
و عندى دوش تمام
و بتفرج على المولدى
والجزيره كمان

Thumb up

I was crossing the street yesterday
and there was an old man with his family

they wanted also to cross the street
but cars were too fast

a young traffic policeman came

stopped the cars and crossed the street with us

then he did the same when we were crossing to the other side

Thank you policeman

There is nothing else to do man

Yesterday I wanted to go out with my friends...but as usual we had only these two boring choices...to go to the cinema or to sit in a cafe/restaurant...I have been doing that almost in all my weekends...this is a big problem for youth...they do not find anything exciting to do in the weekend...as a group of friends I mean...and this is more obvious in the middle class society...we can not spend a lot of money in a disco or in an expensive restaurant in a hotel...and at the same time we do not want to sit in a public cafe ( Ahwa Baladi ) or eat grilled corn in front of the shore of the river Nile...but what else can we do as a group of girls and boys in Cairo...mmm...eat hum hum hum and chat bla bla bla!!!! ...anyone has a new better idea...please inform us as soon as possible

878

878,that is enough,I can not stand that anymore,I can not write anything anymore,I am being strangulated,I tried to take control of this blog but everything has a limit,I am stuck in nowhere,I can feel my tongue but can't speak,I have an eye but have to consider myself blind,I have a mind that have to be shut off.

Please kill me

Cairo's traffic jam new world record: From my college I took 3 hours and 23 minutes to arrive home...it usually takes 8 minutes...what is today...today is Thursday...you do not know what happened today

Caviar

I am tired…really tired…I am on the edge…everything is useless…I do not know what I am doing…I do not understand what is going around me…this can not be the end of my dreams…my future plans…ahhh…all what I have planed…ahhh…am I eating a sandwich…I can not taste anything anymore…my wife…emmm…yeah…why is life so hard…ahhh…my children…I need help…my lovely children…but what can I do…Nancy Agram is so sweet…I need a cigarette…I am nothing…ahhh…I have to buy a mobile phone…aha…I am exhausted…aha...I want to go out of this country…no…I have to go out…but how…I want to go to America…huh…no…I want to go to…to…to Dubai…no …maybe Kuwait…but how…no no no...my neighbors…my family…my people…I can not leave them here…it is only for a short time…earn money…yeah…money and come back…start my independent business…Magdy is not better than me…I will…yes I am dumb… wait a minute…I am pathetic...but who is responsible for this

Six Feet Under

I only have watched the first two seasons…but I have to say that "Six Feet Under" is one of the most well written TV dramas I ever watched …I could not miss an episode…created by the Oscar winning writer of "American Beauty" Alan Ball digs in the soul of the human being and gives the meaning of life a new shape…it is so real…weird…dark…and funny...all the characters are 3 dimensional…and for me every episode was a lesson for life...and death

Don't be FRESH

My bathroom is not made of porcelain…and it is not the best place to take a shower when you wake up every morning…but I felt humiliated when the worker who came to fix the heater threw the cigarette on the floor …my bathroom is like the streets of Egypt…it is dirty yes …but that does not mean to throw things on the street just because we are sure this will not make the condition better if we throw it in a basket…do you smoke…no thank you I do not smoke and I know my bathroom is shit

Sandstorm in Cairo

I can not breathe without you..oho oho...alo

uhu... you have the same color like my skin...alo

Alo...alo...where are you...can you see me...uhu...can you hear me...alo

Never use condoms

She is happy…and Egypt is happy too…people need to be fed, need to have health care, need to find a place to live, need to be educated, need to find jobs, need to be transported … and babies need to be delivered...and as average life expectancy is rising every year and more people immigrate from other Egyptian cities to Cairo...I am sure we are going to face a much bigger disaster than we have today…the census result is surprisingly not the problem…the problem is in the way we live…we do not want and will not leave the Nile Delta unless we are forced to do that…I can not live in Basata alone...I believe that more than 70 million Egyptians live in 5% of Egypt’s total area…wow…great thing isn’t it…we do not want to think for our future until we forget our past…and present

Happy Beat Ten Day

I think I will beat ten in the coming lesson
Are you crazy…are you not afraid that the teacher could know about it
No…because I will beat ten with my mind…so he will never know…can you do that
I will try it
And when are you going to beat ten today
I do not know…maybe before I go home…or before the lunch
But do not forget to beat ten today…you know…today everyone will beat ten…it is cool…so cool…isn’t it
Of course it is…I always wanted to have the beat ten day… imagine everyone beating ten…ha...and do you know why it’s unique …because it is only in our country
No…you are kidding
Yes…I am sure…we are the first country to have the beat ten day
But not all women will celebrate and beat ten today
Yeah…it will be hard for them…and for you of course…you will only beat seven…ha ha ha
Huh…And your father
My father has beaten ten before the breakfast…but I am sure most people will beat after work…to enjoy the beat ten day…I heard there will be great beat ten day parties at night…we should go out tonight
Yeah…
I do not understand why they did not make it a vacation … next year they have to make it an official national holiday
Especially for you…because next year you will be able to celebrate it for the first time in your life…ha ha ha
Yeah man…citizens need to have that day free… to celebrate and relax the beat ten day…
I do not need it…for me everyday is a beat ten day

Close your eyes

I was in the centre yesterday waiting for the private teacher to come...he is always late…students were going in and out …talking…laughing…shouting…but these two young men were so concentrated in their prayers-not affected by the noise and movements of the students -as if they were in another time and place...in another peaceful and calm world...when they came back from their soul journey they continued their work in the centre
