- richard ashcroft YOU are a rock’n roll star!!! what a gig my man!!!!! amazing intense incredible.

- after seeing him live I get why he and liam ar such good friends. same type of vibeing dancing moving to the guitar tunes, it was truly lovely

- richard’s gig intro started with a stone roses song it was beautiful. he also dedicated one to mani 💔

- bonehead, andy and I think it was gem watching richard caught on my potato camera phone

- bonehead’s brazil jersey!!!!!!!!

- liam’s red parka!!!!!!!

- so sweaty so hot that I had to take my shirt off after the poznan or I’d’ve passed out from the heat + nerves

- fade away and bring it own down my darling forgotten sisters I’m sorry people didn’t love you right today

- apparently brasil doesn’t care that much about whatever??????? CRIMES

- sadly at least in my section no visible gcesters around

- thought I’d be crying from the get go but the energy was so insane that I was just jumping up and down screaming my lungs and my heart out

- the crying fit only really started with noel’s songs. and then didn’t stop even after the gig was done and kept going during the twenty minute walk to the subway and on the ride home

- liam’s antics are the absolute cutest he’s a darling and what a presence what an energy.

- noely g my dearest darling. your facial expressions got me smitten once again. I saw you you saw me i know.

- my eyes kept going back between them two feeling utterly overwhelmed in the best way

- fuck cis men that wanna watch the whole gig in lizard pose with their girlfriends and complain about people blocking their view because? they’re dancing jumping and got their hands up? pay for seats then mf not ga

- fuck the two boring ass most definitely straight noel girls behind me that spent the entire concert just recording on their phones barely singing alone instead of enjoying the moment and kept complaining about me throwing my smiths tshirt up into the air for noel to see

- so if anyone sees a smiths the queen is dead tshirt in any videos that’s me!!!!! red crazy hair and crazed face screaming and ugly crying (pls send the videos my way if anyone does see it)

- liam as usual started the gig complaining about the mix on his mic

- caught the champagne supernova hug on film!!!!

- every time the camera / photographer was recording people around me I made a point of putting up my cellphone with my loch lomond photocard

- beautiful beautiful homage to mani during love forever. liam just stood there looking up at his photo and then i blinked and the whole band was doing it. was crying too hard to take any photos

- noel fucking gallagher the power of your emotions and your songs and lyrics live and sung by you buddy. never really liked talk tonight that much, but hearing it live made me sob

- no story before the poznan today, liam just said that he didn’t want us to do any waves or olés and explained it

- slide away. live. that’s it that’s the post. the rawness liam sings the what for line was felt deep in my gut man. beautiful beautiful emotional the greatest love song of all time

- before the encore the crowd started singing the chorus for stop crying your heart out and don’t go away. really funny choices considering all the jokes I heard all day about noel and liam getting into a fistfight on stage

- liam did the coldplay lovebirds joke today again but people maybe didn’t really get lovebirds? it was cute and sad, he seemed a bit put out by the miscommunication

- god called amazing stunning majestic celestial biblical by the man himself I can die in piece

- some people around me started singing bonehead’s bank holiday when noel was introducing the band and it seemed like he heard it. lovely heart full moment

- feeling very guilty bc the show was already halfway through by the time I was able to disconnect from the gallagher magic to look towards gem and andy. screamed extra loud for them when noel introduced them.

- kept thinking about you guys my beautiful mutual friends lovers beloveds on my phone all day every moment of the gig❣️you truly were all there with me 🫶🫶🫶😚😚

- I am never gonna be the same person again. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to listen to any of these songs again without openly ugly crying

- oasis is so so so serious and even some fans don’t have any idea. the most serious

in conclusion:

Volvo Ocean Race – Brasil 1 em Alicante

O histórico Brasil 1 de Torben Grael, terceiro colocado na regata de 2008-09, virou peça de museu e pode ser visitado na Vila da Regata de Alicante, cidade da largada da Volta ao Mundo. Depois de sofrer avarias e quase ter perda total, a organização do evento resolveu remodelar a embarcação. A saudade do Brasil 1 e o desejo de repetir uma campanha verde e amarela um dia são compartilhadas pelos velejadores. “Eu passei e ele abanou o rabo pra mim”, brincou Torben Grael.

“O barco ficou conhecido na época por ter uma tripulação quase toda nacional e ter sido construído no País. Muita gente torceu pelo nosso time. Agora é bom ver que o Brasil 1 está disponível para o público”.

Torben Grael acredita que os brasileiros envolvidos com o barco nacional tiveram as portas abertas na vela oceânica e principalmente na Volvo Ocean Race. “Espaço tem. O mais complicado é obter a primeira experiência nesse tipo e regata e os brasileiros tiveram. As equipes internacionais são formadas geralmente por indicação ou levando em conta a experiência do velejador”.

Volvo Ocean Race – Brasil 1 – 2005 / 2006

Além de Torben Grael, que na edição de 2008-09 foi campeão da Volvo Ocean Race, outros velejadores se destacaram. André ‘Bochecha’ Fonseca, por exemplo, está na disputa atual a bordo do MAPFRE. Joca Signorini correu as últimas três edições e hoje é treinador do Team SCA, equipe 100% feminina.

“Sem o Brasil 1 não estaria aqui. Pude correr a Volta ao Mundo e outros eventos de alto nível por causa dele”, disse Joca Signorini. “O barco me traz só boas lembranças e memórias especiais. Na parada de Itajaí, em abril, vamos nos reencontrar e comemorar os 10 anos dessa campanha”.

Para André ‘Bochecha’ Fonseca, está na hora de ter mais um barco brasileiro. “Fico feliz por representar o Brasil mais uma vez, mas sei que para disputar uma Volvo Ocean Race é preciso ter uma experiência passada. Por isso, temos tudo para ter um barco na regata e voltar com força”.

O espanhol Roberto ‘Chuny’ Bermúdez integra atualmente o Abu Dhabi. Entre os estrangeiros, o maior salto foi do norueguês Knut Frostad, que hoje é CEO da Volvo Ocean Race.

O Brasil 1 foi vendido à Telefónica em 2006 após a 9ª edição. Segundo o próprio Torben Grael, os espanhóis deram ‘um mole’ após um vendaval e o barco sofreu avarias. A embarcação ficou no porto espanhol até a revitalização da Volvo Ocean Race.
