The Festival Rock y Ruedas de Avándaro (also known as the Festival de Avándaro or simply Avándaro) was a historic Mexican rock festival held on September 11–12, 1971, on the shores of Lake Avándaro near the town of Valle de Bravo in the central State of Mexico, Mexico. The festival celebrated life, youth, ecology, music, peace and free love, psychedelic music, counterculture imagery, and artwork. The festival was a milestone in the history of Mexican rock music and drawn an estimated 100,000 to 500,000 concertgoers. The festival originally scheduled 12 bands but a total of 18 acts performed outdoors during the first, sometimes rainy weekend, before a massive crowd. La Revolución de Emiliano Zapata (Emiliano Zapata’s Revolution) is a Mexican rock band that broke sales records in Europe and Mexico with their hit song “Nasty Sex“ at the height of the counterculture era of the early 1970s. Breaking ties with their original concept as the hippie era waned worldwide by the mid-1970s, they continued actively interpreting romantic ballads with considerable success. In 2009, they returned as a rock act. The Corpus Christi Massacre or El Halconazo ([el alkoˈnaso], “The Hawk Strike“, so called because of the participation of a government-trained paramilitary group known as Los Halcones was a massacre of student demonstrators during the Mexican Dirty War in Mexico City on June 10, 1971, the day of the Corpus Christi festival. Nearly 120 protesters were killed, among them a fourteen-year-old boy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @beautiful_cosmic_soul
