El turismo gay ha crecido significativamente en Uruguay, gracias a su cercanía a otros países posicionados como gay-friendly. Es el caso de Argentina y Brasil. Gracias a ese crecimiento, han surgido en Uruguay varios establecimientos especializados en público gay: hostales, posadas y grandes hoteles. La idea del gobierno uruguayo es fomentar el turismo gay desde los Estados Unidos y España.

  • The ACAO! We Are Excited to Have You with Us This Season! ACA Optimist Club (“ACAO”) Was Established in 1989
    Welcome to the ACAO! We are excited to have you with us this season! ACA Optimist Club (“ACAO”) was established in 1989. This year brings in a breath of fresh air as we add football to our organization. We are excited to kick off this new expansion with positivity and an optimistic attitude. The ACAO hosts various events during the year to give back to the community. Events include summer splash bash, football camps, cheer camps, food drives, an official cheer competition, football super bowl and a holiday party. Each squad must have at least 2 Sponsors for teams up to 12 girls and 3 Sponsors for teams up to 16 girls. Sponsors are responsible for all communication and information to their coaches and parents of their squad. The ACAO maintains an annually elected Board of Directors to run the Club. The Board of Directors helps to ensure all of its rules are being followed, investigates complaints, everyone operates in a safe manner, and helps to ensure that everyone has fun. All of the ACAO Directors and Officers are volunteers and many are also Sponsors. The ACAO Board and its members review and approve its Bylaws and rules each year. A listing of its current Directors and Officers, as well as a copy of the most current adopted rules and Bylaws can be found on the ACAO official website. The ACAO is looking forward to another exciting season and its best year ever. The ACAO is happy that you want to be a part of it and certainly welcomes any feedback including any suggestions to make it a more enjoyable experience.

Regardless of what your opinion about R.E.M. is, there's no denying that they shaped the face of alternative rock for years. Heck, they've basically been every kind of alternative rock band themselves. They spent their formative years as cult favorite college rockers. Then, they started attracting more and more attention until they were making music with genuine mainstream appeal. Between 1991 and 1992 alone, they released the folk- inspired Out of Time and the baroque Automatic For The People, making them easily the most successful band to attack the audiences of the early grunge era with both mandolins ("Losing My Religion") and string arrangements (A good chunk of Automatic ).

La raccolta include tutti i brani eseguiti durante la trasmissione doppio cd televisiva originale, oltre a 11 canzoni mai trasmesse, da queste storiche apparizioni della band a MTV. UNPLUGGED: THE COMPLETE 1991 AND 2001 SESSIONS sarà pubblicato LA REDAZIONE domani, martedì 27 Maggio in doppio cd, mentre è già disponibile digitalmente.

SPETTACOLINEWS.IT Il batterista Bill Berry, il chitarrista Peter Buck, il bassista Mike Mills, e il cantante Michael Stipe registrarono la loro prima session "Unplugged" nel 1991, mentre stavano cavalcando l'onda di un crescente successo iniziato nel 1987 con il travolgente impatto commerciale di Document. Molte delle performance mettono in luce canzoni dell'album dei R.E.M. uscito a quel tempo Out of Time, che ha venduto oltre 18 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo e fu il loro primo album a raggiungere la posizione n.1 nella classifica U.S.A.

  • Interview with MIKE MILLS of R.E.M. Was Conducted by the Library of Congress on March 23, 2018
    This interview with MIKE MILLS of R.E.M. was conducted by the Library of Congress on March 23, 2018 Mike Mills Library of Congress: Quite famously, there are two versions of “Radio Free Europe”-- one on Hib-Tone and a later one that was done for I.R.S. Records. Listening to them today, do you prefer one version over the other? Mike Mills: I think everyone in the band has gone on record as saying that they prefer the Hib- Tone version compared to the one on the album. It was rawer, and done with a little more energy and abandon, which often makes for a more exciting recording. LOC: What was writing “Radio Free Europe” like? All four members of the band are listed as the songwriter on the label. MM: I wrote the verse and B-section late one night while sitting alone downstairs in an Athens record store while a party was going on upstairs. The store was closed, and I was playing an unamplified electric guitar as I was listening to the party. [For “Radio Free Europe,”] later, Peter wrote the chorus and bridge, and Michael [Stipe] supplied the melody and lyrics. Peter [Buck] made the suggestion early on that we share all the writing credits equally, because songwriters get the income from publishing, and unequal income distribution is one of the primary causes of bands breaking up. “So,” Peter said, “let’s just take that out of the equation.” LOC: At this time, who do you think, musically, were your biggest influences? MM: My influences came from all over the place.

  • Murmur 25Th Anniversary Deluxe Edition Press Release
    1 R.E.M.’S DEBUT ALBUM, THE GROUNDBREAKING MURMUR, REISSUED IN TWO-CD 25TH ANNIVERSARY DELUXE EDITION FEATURING PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED 1983 CONCERT Alternative rock did not begin with a bang but with a Murmur. In 1983, a band from Athens, Georgia made its full- length album debut. The band was R.E.M.; the album was Murmur, Rolling Stone’s Album of the Year and one of the first alternative rock albums to gain mainstream notice. The two-CD 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of Murmur (I.R.S./UMe), released November 25, 2008, features that original landmark album remastered plus an additional disc with a previously unreleased concert recorded at Larry’s Hideaway in Toronto three months after Murmur’s April release. The 16-song live performance boasts nine of Murmur’s 12 songs, including “Radio Free Europe”; three songs first heard on 1982’s Chronic Town EP; early renditions of two songs that would subsequently appear on the band’s second album, 1984’s Reckoning; “Just A Touch,” later heard on R.E.M.’s fourth album, 1986’s Lifes Rich Pageant; and a cover of Velvet Underground’s “There She Goes Again,” which the group recorded in the studio for the b-side of “Radio Free Europe.” Assembled in conjunction with R.E.M., Murmur - Deluxe Edition, the package also includes exclusive essays providing insight into the recording of the album by producers Mitch Easter and Don Dixon, as well as former I.R.S. executives Jay Boberg, Sig Sigworth, Carlos Grasso, Michael Plen.
