The Tuscan Blues Event in Pistoia
This year Caetano Veloso has decided to tour Italy and have a concert in Pistoia at the Pistoia Blues. Pistoia Blues has been running for over 26 years starting in 1980 with performers such as BB King and Muddy Waters.
Caetano Veloso will also stop at different cities in Italy, but the concert in Pistoia is going to be July 18, 2006. The singer has recently (5 years ago) composed a song in Italian after having composed so many in other Romance languages. The Brazilian singer, famous in Europe mostly after having participated to movies where he sang "Cuccurrucuccu Paloma" in Spanish, will surely receive great plause by the Italian public because of his eclectic and ever-changing music style.
The concert tickets are already on sale for 30, 35, and 50 Euros per ticket. The affluence at Pistoia Blues is greatly increased in the past few years, so I sincerely advise you to buy the tickets in advance and get at least the 35 Euro ones if you want to get to see Caetano Veloso live and not on screen.
Pistoia Blues is an event running from July 14 to July 16. Not to be missed!!
Other events are the Siena Jazz Festival in Siena every Summer.
Also, if you are looking for a place to stay when you are in Tuscany, I have found some websites that rent villas and apartments in Tuscany near Pistoia. Some are not expensive at all, and if you are a group and share it is even cheaper. Here is the list:
