Available for download via Bandcamp.This year I often go out, almost every weekend, I go with my uncle to watch the soccer games at the pub downstairs.
Over the years, it has halved, changed its name and management several times, passing from a big pub that tributes Sylvester Stallone, to a pub, a bar/pub 24/7, ending up becoming a cultural association - Roma club.
In recent years, Rome has shown a good game, although its players were not always international champions, but it has always stood out for a great heart.
Now, after Zeman, Capello has arrived, great champions have arrived with him, and this year seems to be the right time.
Woe to you if you say "trukke trukke", it's forbidden, here the superstition has its weight, better not to joke about something so serious.
I am a bit superstitious, because it's okay to be a little foolish, but not to be foolish.
It smells like frozen fries in reused oil, to ask for a coke or a beer there is a wait of 20 minutes.
My uncle queues up, jokes with the owner, I get coke; I know that by dint of screaming the voice will go away, and that the fries will burn my throat, so I have to sip it and make it last at least for the duration of the game, one sip at a time.
My uncle will still take me another, but who never knows.
Each time, at the end of the first half, another of the regular customers of the pub tells my uncle a different joke about Lazio; it always makes us laugh, even when he go down heavy.
In the pub, the lights are red and blurry like those of an old ad, they transmitted as much warmth as I needed when I had to go out in the cold of winter evenings' streets.
I'm also a little myopic, but I still don't realize it, and in the imperfect blur of my eyes, every action is as vague as a memory.
Antonioli, AC Zago, Samuel, Zebina, Candela, Tommasi, C. Zanetti, Cafu, Totti, Delvecchio, Batistuta.
And we embrace ourself together.
Tribute to Antonello Venditti
