Drummer released a job vacancy looking for a professional who “takes a shower every day”, “does not have a rotten mouth” and “does not stare at blank walls”
One of the great drummers of Brazil, Aquiles Priester he is also known for the humorous tone adopted in his publications on social networks. An example of this was in a recent post where he announced that he was looking for a category D driver (buses, minibuses and vans) for a tour.
The former member of creekwhich today plays with Edu Falaschi It is WASP, will tour national territory between the next months of June and July. When disclosing the “basic” and “essential” requirements, it surprised by demanding that the contractor “does not have a rotten mouth”, “take a shower every day” and “do not stare at blank walls in hotel rooms”, for example. There are also serious information and even obvious requests, such as “don’t drink while driving” and “don’t sleep while driving”.
The publication’s humorous character – even though the search for a driver is real – is confirmed even with inside jokes, such as the requirement “to know how to shake in your place”. It is a reference to a disagreement with the guitarist Kiko Loureiro in Angra’s time. While streaming live on YouTube in 2020 (via Whiplash), priest reported that the former colleague became irritated when the audience shouted his name at the concert. “He used to say: ‘don’t get up from the drums before the show; shake it, but shake it in its place’”.
