Lynyrd Skynyrd fans ‘invade’ the Jaguariúna Rodeo Festival

Those who attended the Jaguariúna Rodeo witnessed a practically social experience. The rodeo, one of the largest in Brazil, has a mostly rural atmosphere, but although the 2023 lineup includes other genres such as pagoda, funk and electronic, it is not as big a break as Saturday’s break (23). It wasn’t. I saw it a long time ago.

Lynyrd Skynyrd’s performance – Jaguariúna Rodeio’s first international attraction since 2006, when Creedence Clearwater played in concert – changed the event’s landscape. Shoes and hats were less present than usual and gave way to a sea of ​​hundreds of people wearing black T-shirts, including the North American country and the rock band itself. 🤘

The rock and roll look wasn’t just limited to band t-shirts. Many leather jackets, typical motorcycle clothing, long hair and beards were also seen in every corner of the Red Eventos complex, where the rodeo is held.

The Lynyrd Skynyrd show revived Jaguariúna’s career of having attractions associated with rock ‘n’ roll, such as Creedence himself, as well as Chuck Berry. Hey g1 I spoke to some Lynyrd Skynyrd fanatics to understand the experience of seeing the idols outside of their “natural environment.”

‘differentiated experience’

Alexa Jack, who lives in Jacutinga (MG), celebrated the opportunity to see the band in such a different environment. “We’re not used to being at rodeos, but Lynyrd Skynyrd is a role model for us, so it’s going to be a completely different experience,” he said.

“Knowing Lynyrd Skynyrd, it is an honor to witness Jaguariúna,” José Marangoni added.

Manuela Priscilla de Oliveira, from Polyña (SP), appreciated the differences between the two audiences: country and rock. “It’s a more mature audience that loves the music and the melody of rock,” he said.

“The mix of styles is very important, because Lynyrd is American country music, and southern rock, so it has everything in common,” added Raphael William.

Eileen Nascimento, 43, said she would rather go to a Lynyrd Skynyrd show at Jaguariúna Rodeio than to the band’s show in São Paulo. Friday (22nd) at Espaso Unimed Stadium. “We chose to go here and have this different experience and it’s really cool,” he explained.

“Let them keep doing this.”

Rocker Alexandre Quadros pointed out other rock-related attractions that Jaguariúna had on other releases.

“It’s just the audience that’s different,” he concluded, “but this isn’t the first time a rodeo has brought global rock attractions, as it did in the early 2000s in Creedence, Kansas, for Chuck Berry, so we hope they continue In doing so.”
