Re: Martin Garcia DeltaFM January 27th 2012
No I didn't get a signature, and the whole experience left me feeling quite perplexed. In Australia our sportsmen, when they're handed something and a marker pen the first thing they think to do is scribble their signature on it (leaving one's mark in a gesture of autograph). Not Martin.
Like I said I dunno what it was..? He probably thought we were stakers since we; bumped into him on the tarmac at Jorge Newberry Airport, caught the same dodgy Aerolineas Argentina flight to both Tucuman & Rosario (in the same week almost), as well as that night in Bahrein (club).
Anyway I totally agree with you about the value of being international and only regret not having a better understanding of Spanish to articulate myself, instead of looking like a dumb Aussie star-struck by being in the man's pressence and asking for his autograph. Never the less I like to think I'm not jaded by the whole experience as I got to meet some of my most favourite Argy dj's, who will probably never travel to Australia to play (Gerado Boscarino, Fernando Ferreyra etc).
Although I can only but hope one day they, like Hernan, will bravely venture to our distant shores. It certainly is giving against taking!

Seriously , if he was on your agenda there was a fair chance you would run into him. I'm willing tto travel to see them, but letting us know on the day of the gig is just not going to work for me
