Congratulations to the WikiBrothers whose phrases were selected and who will attend Dave Lombardo's Workshows in Brazil!
Check out the winning phrases or texts:
Breyner Meireles (Brasilia)
“How to get thousands of people at a concert to sing War Ensemble with guitars and microphones turned off”
Denis Silva (Joinville)
“Faith, persistence, dedication and an innovative technique linked to a single path: To the Workshop of master Dave Lombardo”
Felipe de Paula Gontijo (Belo Horizonte)
“As the true godfather of the double bass drum, only Dave Lombardo can teach how to tread the dark paths of Thrash Metal”
Juliano Cavalcante (Porto Alegre)
“Only Dave can teach us how to use drumsticks and, especially when it comes to Thrash Metal, our feet on the drums in such a way that his instrument is the highlight and integrates into the whole of the music, contributing to an insanely aggressive sound for the band. Only Dave can teach us a path where the dream of having a band and being a competent musician comes out of the imagination and becomes reality through his experiences with Slayer, the maniacs of Testament, and with the, at the very least, exotic Mike Patton in Fantômas. To conclude, only Dave can teach us the most important thing for Thrashers: To give the necessary aggression to the songs. Even playing with the cellos of Apocalyptica or in the ballad Stand By Me accompanying Lemmy, Dave is always aggressive and his bass drum follows the rhythms of my heart. A heart with tachycardia, and that's why I feel his kicks with every beat, and only he accompanies me.”
Mauricio Oliveira (Florianópolis)
“How to apply all the rage present in thrash metal without getting lost in technique, creating the sound that marked Dave's career and inspired many others”
Rafael Lucini (Guarapuava)
“That the passion for music surpasses any musical genre”
Walter Folz (São Paulo)
“Dave Lombardo belongs to a very select group of great musicians, those who transcend the style in which they became famous. The opportunity to see a metal beast up close, talking not only about his experience in Slayer but throughout his career and his current projects, is invaluable. It goes far beyond what a drum workshop can teach us: It's not just technique, study methods, but what it means to be a musician. In short, Dave Lombardo can show live what it is to be a great musician, to show what it is to put soul and life into the drums. Just ask the crowd that was at Via Funchal when the music stopped, and he took everyone along for the ride!”
