The Knights of Burning returned to the Temple of Rock after 25 years: with their hits, a tribute to Maradona and a cover of Los Redondos

It took 25 years for Los Caballeros de la Quema to step on the stage of the Temple of Rock again, but all those years, after 9:10 p.m. when the show started, seemed to vanish. Before an audience euphoric to relive that night in 1999, the band from Castelar not only fulfilled the hits they knew how to play at that time, but also added the classics of the new century included in Fulanos de Nadie, their last studio album. The night was full of emotions, among the spectators there was a palpable mixture of emotions of returning to Obras Sanitarias, something similar to what happened to the band. It is that there many of them knew how to see more than one of the great national and international rock bands between the ’80s and ’00s. In one of his first interventions, Iván Noble recalled that the precursor of the Temple was Luis Alberto Spinetta, who appeared in 1978 with Banda Spinetta. They started with the classic tango “Volver”, with those Rio de la Plata roots that they are used to, and quickly chained with “Huelga de princesas” and “Todos atrás y Dios de 9”, which made the whole audience jump. remembering in part what that 1999 show was like, in which they recorded the album live. The Knights of Burning at the Temple of Rock | Photo: @arnedonacho and @foccoproduTras playing Patri, Iván Noble said: “We’ll find out who are from the old guard” and immediately asked who was going to see Los Caballeros a Arpegios y Cemento in the band’s beginnings in the early 90s. At that moment, several hands began to be raised between the field, the stalls and the popular ones. After the popular consultation, the chords of Casi nadie de Sangrando (1994), the second studio album, began to sound. Classics such as Jodido noviembre were heard, which days ago Iván had advanced on networks. They also gave rise to a little older, but no less well-known ones such as Pejerrey and No me despaches así. In the midst of all those classics, the biggest fans of Los Caballeros were pure nostalgia. Hugging and jumping among friends and family, some even with children.

On the screen began to see the iconic goal against the English in Mexico ’86, with the story of Victor Hugo Morales and the memory of returning from a war a few years ago, so that show was more than football. Of course, with the “genius, genius, genius… ta, ta, ta, gooooooooool” shouted the entire stadium. Almost in a nod to the Argentine national team, which has a nice anecdote with a particular card, he began to sing 4 de copas, which was one of the most chanted songs after returning from the euphoria of shouting Diego’s goal.Martín Mendez and Pablo Guerra in Obras Sanitarias | Photo: @arnedonacho and @foccoproduOtra of the pearls was the interpretation of “a band not so well known”, as Iván Noble presented the cover of Vencedores Vencidos by Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota. More than one absent-minded person who went to the bathroom came running back to jump a ricotta song in Obras. Between topics, there is always time to remember the government of the day, with a very politicized public. In unison with “La patria no se vende” jumped and applauded, at least in the field, almost the entire audience. Faced with the chant, Iván replied: “They don’t even sell it, now they raffle it.” Then Sapo de otro pozo sounded, with an emphasis from the audience on the delicious mistakes that the song recalls, and with that feeling that the show was ending. The final stretch was with Mientras hay luces de bar, Avanti morocha and Oxidado. Around 11:30 p.m., after a little more than 2 hours of show, Los Caballeros greeted “la monada”, as they call their audience, and Iván Noble said that “El Nene” Cavo, drummer, played with a sprain. For this reason, the ovation was all for him at the end.
