Stand Showcase #4: Guantanamera

"Bringing the Good Vibrations, my friend" This is GUANTANAMERA, the Mid-Range Speed Stand, and the 17th of the 18 Stands you Main Character can have!

"The Soda Stand" has the ability to generate sugar cubes that can be dissolved into liquids that generate a "special soda" which increases the reflexes of anyone who drinks it. In addition, it can manifest its substand, GOOD VIBRATIONS, a surfboard that allows it to glide through the air, to give it some more mobility!

Guantanamera is one of the few sentient stands among the roster, with a bubbly and joyous personality, like "a treehugger gym bro that's high all the time", with many of its moves not being manifestions of its ability, but rather its unique personality. It's a very simple and versatile stand, able to help others while standing on its own, with good stats and versatile moves, but most of all, laughs were thought of when using it.

Llevo una excelente semana musical. Y sobre todo muy latina. Con grupos/artistas que considero representan muy bien al continente y no la generación actual de “músicos”. Es una pena que el reguetón se haya consolidado como un “género musical”. Para mí no lo es y jamás lo será.

i know nothing, really, about theater but: thoughts on this years tony noms? or the tonys in general?

heyyyy so my lore drop is i got to work on a bway show this season so i like really do have opinions ngl. here are some & i apologize if you do not get all ‘em

the missing best actress nom shouldn’t go to helen j. shen, bless her heart. it belongs to natasha hodgson, who plays monty in operation mincemeat. that performance of an entitled man done by a woman, while still giving his satirical character nuance, is obscenely impressive. and it’s insane no one’s said this.

death becomes her should not be nominated for best musical, let alone best book. christ, of all things. it’s based off a meryl streep movie it didn’t reinvent the wheel. i genuinely think it was only nominated because megan hilty and jennifer simard are really fantastic comedic actresses in this and broadway just loves divas. i think the testament to DBH’s entire success is solely those two women (who. absolutely deserve their individual noms) and idk if that should earn the show as a whole a tony nom. cause the actual content is like? not incredible.

everyone should see buena vista social club, because i’m so sure no one here fucking has… the most genuine musical on bway right now besides maybe happy ending and real women have curves (sorry u didn’t make the cut girl but… it was a fair cut. bvsc got you beat.)

dead outlaw is too adjacent in concept to both operation mincemeat (dead body) and floyd collins (old timey southern man dies) and both the other shows do it just a little more streamlined. which is tough bc dead outlaw is good, it just doesn’t shine for me? and the sad thing is it would’ve in any other season. the concept was more fire than the execution unfortunately. also andrew durand literally says and does nothing the entire second half and got a best actor nom, which…. do we not all think that’s kind of odd, god bless?

floyd collins is the best acting performance of jeremy jordan’s career, tony nom was well-earned. it’s nice to see him genuinely act fr. also that rock/cave climbing sequence was so fire

did anyone see just in time. should jon groff have that nom or is it more honorary and for kicks. like im sure he’s good but is it an actual stand out do ykwim.

julio monge (bvsc) deserves a featured actor in a musical nom too if the only requirements are comedic scene stealer. because, um…. looks like they are. and he’s perfect as compay segundo

^on that same note he’d take jeb brown’s place (dead outlaw), because jeb brown should’ve been put up for best actor. he does as much if not more work than andrew durand and carries quite literally the entire narrative of the show. as the narrator.

what else what else

what was so special abt DBH’s scenic design besides a pretty staircase. tell me. quickly. the climactic scene in the second act was Entirely empty and dark. what

as an american who saw operation mincemeat in london during its second week of previews…. they have done amazing work to revise and perfect it to come to the states. every american that does not think this show is good i kind of do think is just wrong. i know when it needed improvement and this is a fantastic final product. smh

people were like bummed that smash didn’t get nominated and i have to laugh. it’s just very. regular

boop surprised me SO much in such a good way!! but if i went in expecting it to be good, i think i would’ve come away also thinking it was kind of regular. having low expectations made that show fucking incredible tho LMFAO miss jasmine deserves that nom asf

plays this year honestly ate. so happy with like. all of them except othello. go english go!!

and for my final opinion slash umm… fact.

the outsiders would not have won if it’d been in this season. and this should be a cold, cold take, by the way. not a hot one.

thank you good night! if you want more tony thoughts or just 24-25 tony szn thoughts i’d be happy to oblige

Sfogliando le variopinte pagine del volume, vi imbatterete in uno sgargiante mosaico composto da volti sorridenti, muri dipinti, musicisti più o meno improvvisati, corpi danzanti, auto decadenti: immagini che riassumono tutto lo spirito di Cuba, raccontato in queste pagine non solo dalle straordinarie foto di Carlo Antiga – che ha saputo cogliere le mille sfaccettature della Habana Vieja – ma anche dai testi delle canzoni che rievocano le musiche che hanno esportato in tutto il mondo il ritmo cubano. Cento immagini che faranno conoscere il fascino decadente della splendida capitale cubana a quanti non hanno ancora avuto modo di visitarla; cento scatti che sapranno rievocare le emozioni del viaggio a quanti vi sono già stati.

Questo disco commemorativo è stato registrato in occasione del primo centenario della nascita del leggendario musicista cubano Compay Segundo. Per rendere omaggio a questo grande maestro, il Grupo Compay Segundo ha deciso di abbinare la ricchissima tavolozza sonora di un’orchestra sinfonica con il tipico son cubano, un incontro pieno di emozioni!
