quote [ Wau y Los Arrrghs!!! at the Knockout in San Francisco performing the "Piedras" off their "Viven!" LP. September 16th, 2009 ]
Looking it up, "piedras" means "rocks".
The singer is wasted and the sound gets worse in the second half, but they pull off a good rendition of the album track. I suddenly miss going to sweaty garage punk gigs.
