End of mandatory portfolio of OMB.
Good news for Brazilian musicians. The Federal Court of 3rd Region decided unanimously to ban the Order of the Musicians of Brazil (OMB) to oversee the musicians as well as require the disclosure in the entity.
The Case ensures the musicians of the State of São Paulo (Brazil) the right to practice, without proof, entering the OMB and subject to disciplinary specific. The Case notes, among other things, that "Law No. 3857/60 does not require registration with the OMB of any musician to the profession, but only those who are subject to academic under control and supervision of the Ministry of Education.
"From now on the musicians of the state of São Paulo can no longer be monitored by OMB and neither have the mandatory membership in it," said Giannazi in his speech in the Legislative Assembly of São Paulo.
Giannazi also made a representation in the Federal Prosecutor's Office requesting the suspension of several articles of Law 3857/60 - which created the Order of the Musicians of Brazil. Once dismissed by the Supreme, the action can go into effect on the entire national territory, dispensing musicians membership in the entity.
The Case is available at the Federal Regional Court (www.trf3.jus.br). For those who want to see in full, the case number is 2005.61.15.001047-2.
Blog Note: This is perhaps one of the greatest political victories-class music in years. But we can not forget that the OMB was defeated in the process, but continues with the same structure and with basically the same groups. Even without Wilson Sandoli, there is still much to do.

MarcusCrisostomo.com - New look!
Hey guys, what´s up?
My previous website was virtually abandoned and was basically dedicated to my profession as WebDesigner, but today it enters a new phase, a new look and new goals.
As many know, I'm drummer since December 2000 and virtually i don´t dedicated myself to create a site about it in order to show my work in a professional to friends, fans and who are interested in seeing.
Returning to the subject, we obtain the change takes place on this website solely because of my personal commitment to my music and the increased exposure due to recent events that occurred in the last months. 2009 for me was a wonderful year where I very thinning along with the band Garrius to get a space in the music and now we need to keep that flame so as not to fall by the wayside ... mistakes like this that sometimes stopped me in my musical life.
If i have plans for 2010?
Only to work hard to climb ever higher, only this time without bumping into the ground.
That's it guys, hope you enjoy this new version.

12/19/2009 - Finally back on stage
Hey guys, what´s up?
After 3 ½ years, I finally got back on stage. My last presentation had happened to the band Katharos on March 25, 2006 in two churches doing cover of Stryper. This gap endless 3 ½ years, tried everything to get back and could not due to problems with the bands where i went.
It is hard to understand the real reason for this, but I think the fact of not being in a band where I had my work recognized and with competent musicians, helped further extend the time it just killed me inside.
December 19th was the great day, i went up on the main stage of the Ocean Club in São Paulo - Brazil to make the first presentation of the band Garrius, it was very special for all the band members, but especially for me because I was the only one with more downtime.
I just have to thank the band Garrius first, by chance, by the organizers that we paved the way for this to happen, and also the Ocean Club, who have given their best stage. It was perfect!
Big hug to everyone and until 2010 with many new features.
