Tony Torres, singer of the group Malditos Pendejos: “At our concerts we never know what we will play, but on Saturday the Racing anthem will surely sound”

You must have been sent or seen an emotional video on social networks during this week Ferrol band Damn assholes gives you a new one rock air with the classic Racing anthem. Through a carousel of images, he previews the team’s historic season and encourages the masses. “I never thought this would all come together. I put it together in ten minutes. I was in the studio, I took some photos and I gave him a chance,” he explains. Tony Torres, voice of the group completed by Octavio García and Cristóbal Castro.

The idea of ​​processing the popular «Alavi-alava / Alavi-von-va! / Racing, Racing / Ra-ra-ra!” it comes from afar, Tony explains. “I made a song for Racing that stayed there. And a very racing friend, Loli Cartelle, was always behind me because she really likes it. Now, with all the atmosphere that reigns because of the promotion, I decided to take the classic anthem of the club to give it a more modern, rocker touch”, he explains. Loli shared it on social media and clubs, and the magic of Twitter did the rest. “After a while, he already told me that he was killing him, because I don’t even have Twitter,” he commented in amazement.

The band’s singer admits that he was dizzy to cover such an important song for racinguismo. But the reception could not have been better. Get thousands of views and ‘likes’. So the band couldn’t be happier. Especially Tony, as a fan of all sports in Ferrol, but above all Racing. “When I was little, I used to go to Manuel Rivera to see my cousin Carlos Torres play,” he recalls. He regrets that his work with the band prevents him from enjoying football more. “I have to admit that I haven’t been to A Malata for a long time, but I always follow what he does,” he points out.

We are very, very happy. I think it will be a great atmosphere,” he predicts.

What will they play? “We have about a hundred songs in our repertoire, but with Malditos Pendejos, you never know what it will sound like. We have two files, but when you’re hired for this kind of thing, people don’t care about your files. People want to sing, dance and have fun. I’m not saying that they didn’t do the same with our songs, eh! But when we come to a concert, and more precisely where there will be a thousand people, everything depends on the audience we see”, he explains. In their performances there is no shortage of versions of bands like Loquillo, Los Ronaldos, Barricade, La Union, Alaska… «What we will certainly play is the Racing anthem. I get messages that drive us!Tony jokes. The version was put together in the studio, so the band now had to adapt it for live recording.

As another Ferrol and racing uista, he does not give credit to what is being experienced in the city these weeks. “Sometimes we blame football for all the ills of humanity, but something that encourages a city so much is impressive. What Ferrol experiences is very positive.
