It took me 24 years to visit Larrabetzu Gazte Eguna, but I have more than them to come back – I hope – and thank you. I knew that Larrabetzu is not a village with few young people, or at least I knew that those who are there are not standing and making noise. What I didn't know was that, apart from the youth from the outside, there are also many young people from within. Therefore, the festive atmosphere of the Gazte Eguna covers all the people throughout the day.

WHEN: August 6:
Larrabetzu (Gazte Eguna)
I was already in the area in February, when the J Martina group presented the album Hori Bai Jaio naiz. The excuse to approach the Gazte Eguna was enough and the group's night concert (with Javi's permission) larrabetzuarra spare. In the orchard of Arrate's amatxi we left the mounted tent, eat the best rice we have eaten in a popular meal, relive what an electrotxaranga is and enter the square, emptying the hearts, ready to fill it.
The town square is hanging. The own, the attendees from the environment and not so close, those who have come expressly to the concert and those who happen to see. For the first time a group of Larrabetzu touches the Gazte Eguna in the town square, if I am not mistaken. In recent months the group has offered and offered popular concerts and not all the scenarios that have been oppressed since February with the presentation of a new work have been useless. The songs have matured and, with them, the trio on the tablate: technique, postural… in every way. They have given songs of their new album, old from time to time – how not – and Prato Green Girl and Anari Ephemérides to their field. Synchronized choreographies not previously prepared have been a demonstration of connection between sisters.
Members of the Larrabetzu group have learned in Bai what live music is, and have said they owe a lot to the teenager who is his second home, thanking him for his collaboration. They control nervousness, reach a slider and beautiful balance between nerves and pleasure, a cross between tension and security necessary to enjoy the quiet concert. And you can see it from afar.
In addition to the back bridges, the street and the wheat field, Larrabetzu Square and ours have caught fire today. And also yours, I would say. There are a lot of criteria for deciding whether or not to like an artist, but there's one I put above anyone else: whether I believe or not. And other things I don't know, but believe me, these I totally believe.
