Some comments regarding the show from JMJ as found on stewoo.net:

“Oh yeah – the gig? It was fun. Getting our sea legs for the stadiums. I think we rocked, we’ll see what the press says, since their words obviously mean a lot more than what I have to say. Had a great time tho, seriously.”

Night Flight To Rio

Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

Beck is reportedly opening for The Police on their South American tour this December.  All the reports I’ve seen are in Spanish, and I don’t know Spanish.  But some quick Google searches seem to say that Beck is involved at both shows in Argentina (Dec 1 & 2) and the show in Chile (Dec 5).  I’d assume also the show in Rio on Dec. 8 for now.

Will Beck play “Tropicalia,” “Deadweight,” and “Missing” all back to back?  I hope so!

UPDATE:

Again, I don’t know Spanish, but from what I understand some fans in Chile have started a petition to get Beck to do a solo show separate from The Police while there. Go here if you want to sign:
