    La Boca is the neighborhood and Boca Juniors is the team.

    Yes, their stadium is still in La Boca.

    Yeah, that’s what I meant - the area. If I recall, Genoese was a main language in the area. Is the neighbourhood ‘Italian’?

    If their image is that of a "more European" and not so "Hispanic" as Boca Juniors, like Diesel described... kind of associating European with good values and manners while Hispanic are dirty and barbarians, then they should not be linked to something as low as offering the kids they educate in their club to the pedophile community :shrugs:

    That's why I say they are like that only in theory.... It's an image they've sold to the world.

    Does La Boca still retain the Italian heritage (the neighbourhood that is)?

  3. I'm not a huge NuGuns fan, but it is fascinating to watch this show. I don't like things like the awful synths on You Could Be Mine, but I do like the fire and hunger you see from Axl and the band.

    They may have looked like a freakshow, but at least with this version of the band you have what was essentially the vision for moving forward. I don't like everything about it and I remember at the time being confused as to what the hell was going on. But it's not replacements of replacements of replacements. It's more interesting than seeing the band a decade later, for example.

    One thing I'm surprised they haven't included is any concert footage; I realise a lot of the stuff from the Appetite era wasn't recorded with the highest-end equipment, but there are still some decent recordings out there. Would have been nice if they scrubbed up some of Marc Canter's videos of their club days.

    EDIT: a cleaned-up version of a gig like this would be awesome:

     

    Who needs that when you can have a temporary tattoo? :lol:

    Do you automatically get one or do you have to seek it out?

    I had to go through the process of becoming an Italian citizen (and they love to make that annoying :lol:). As the son of an Italian I was eligible and could get one without any issue, but had to do all the paperwork. But then my brother is not officially an Italian citizen, although he could go through the process tomorrow if he wanted to.
