You want song lyrics and I provide...lol...Can't say that I've ever heard of the song, group or the theater...Rumor has it that the Stamm family built this theater in 1948 and another a few blocks away called "El Campanil", which I know now holds music events but I've yet to attend...As for the band "Luche", they are an Italian band that incorporates elements of hip-hop and trap, with impactful lyrics and captivating melodies...
So there you have it...
Rumoured to have been built to repel a Jacobite invasion but also has the history of being nothing more than a folly.

The ghostly remains of the old military fort are overgrown and have the feel of a crumbling southern plantation.

Fort Stevens (Oregon)
Visited Fort Stevens State Park on a very rainy day.
Wiki -"Fort Stevens was an American military installation that guarded the mouth of the Columbia River in the state of Oregon. Built near the end of the American Civil War, it was named for slain Civil War general and former Washington Territory governor, Isaac Stevens. The fort was an active military reservation from 1863–1947.[1] The fort is listed on the National Register of Historic Places." Was also upgraded and used during the second world war, decommissioned in 1947.
With some lucky help from a rising moon over the horizon, this long exposure came into play with the surrounding light. If you ever have the chance to visit the California coast, it is a must do visit.
A California Historical Landmark, the city was founded, prior to the American Civil War, as a military garrison rather than a fortification. Fort Bragg is a tourist destination because of its picturesque views of the Pacific Ocean. Its population was only 7,273 at the 2010 census.

Today was an absolutely beautiful day as you can tell by everything that's in bloom at Fort Tryon Park. Cherry trees, tulips and azaleas can be seen here. Even the dogwoods have started flowering.

La maison-forte d'Epeisses est sise à flanc de coteau, près du village de Cogny qu'elle domine. Il est difficile d'assigner une date exacte pour l'état initial de la maison-forte. La partie la plus ancienne est un grand logis-tour, d'un type très répandu dans la région du XIIIe au XVe siècle. Il constitue le noyau du bâti actuel. Ce logis seigneurial a subi de nombreux remaniements. La tourelle daterait du XVIe siècle. Tandis que la façade occidentale semble assez récente XVIIIe ou XIXe siècle.
Baltit Fort or Balti Fort is an ancient fort in the Hunza valley in the Northern Areas of Pakistan.
In former times survival of the feudal regimes of Hunza was ensured by the impressive Baltit fort, that sit on top of Karimabad. The foundations of the fort are said to date back around 700 years, but there have been rebuilds and alterations over the centuries. In the 16th century the Thum married a princess from Baltistan who brought master Balti craftsmen to renovate the building as part of her dowry. The architectural style is a clear indication of Tibetan influence in Baltistan at the time.
The Mirs of Hunza abandoned the fort in 1945, and moved to a new palace down the hill. The fort started to decay and there was concern that it might possibly fall into ruin. Following a survey by the Royal Geographical Society of London, a restoration programme was initiated and supported by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture Historic Cities Support Programme. The programme was completed in 1996 and the fort is now a museum run by the Baltit Heritage Trust.
