João Ota Pinheiro, a 16-year-old from Votuporanga, has made it a tradition to attend Banda Eva performances, a ritual deeply intertwined with his family legacy. This year's performance during the Oba Festival held particular significance as it marked the location where his parents, Léo Pinheiro and Larissa, first met 16 years ago at a carnival show. With a heartfelt connection to the band stemming from his father's 13-year tenure as their bassist, Joao felt a renewed sense of emotion while experiencing the music that has been part of his family's story.

The concert not only served as another outing for the young fan but also mirrored a pivotal moment in his parents' love story. Léo's historic encounter with Larissa took place when he invited her on stage during a festive carnival event, a gesture that was customary for musicians to engage with their audience. This charm of nostalgia and familial connection gave the boy’s attendance a poignant essence, linking his present with the legacy of his parents and the band.

Reflecting on the experience, João expressed that each performance always resonates with him but this specific show at the Oba Festival enhanced his appreciation for the music and its historical context. For him, being part of Banda Eva's concert in the same city where his parents fell in love deepened his familial ties to the band and turned a simple concert outing into a treasured memory.
