Madhouse

more great eurotouring pics here

Last Saturday was another fun night at the Pit’s: a wild beer-soaked rock ‘n roll party that ended in a messy punk jam with the audience! THE FEELERS played a wild & amazing show and gave their all. This wasn’t very surpising since the bass player’s mom and dad had especially flown over from the States to see the apple of their eye playing some fierce & reckless punk tunes. From the first song on, the hyperactive singer took a spot in the middle of the club and screamed his lungs out. The sheer energy the band radiated was irresistible so we all kept on shouting for more! The Feelers ended their intense set with a cover from fellow townsmen Cheater Slicks and although I didn’t recognize the song as such (the guy next to me told me The Spits do cover the same song), it was a great way to end a terrific high-energy show!

I don’t own any records by the CLOROX GIRLS because I thought their sound is a bit to clean & poppy for my ears but their half hour live set proofed me wrong. The singer, a young Greg Sage lookalike, poked fun at us by telling that the French fries are better in France but when he joked he actually prefered German beers, I immediately treated him on a trappist shower in order to convince him of the brewing qualities of our monks. Fortunately, he didn’t kick my ass but kept on rocking full throttle. From then on, the party broke loose and everybody had a great time, some on stage, some off stage. The grand finale was a distribution of the instruments among the audience which resulted in a wild punk jam. A great party from 2 great live bands. Thanks a lot guys!!!
