After the loudness
by mattias
We had the good fortune and the great honor of sharing forty minutes on stage with Fritte Vislander and Robert Van Der Zwan in addition to our regular fantastic comrades in the band. Hopefully we’ll do it again, on a bigger stage with better sound and better organization.
We weren’t all that happy with the way the night developed.There was supposed to be two bands playing that night, us and one more. Turns out the guy had brought in a total of five bands. We knew that things were going to get late, and our original time at 10pm wasn’t happening at all.
We sat around a big table and talked about everything and nothing for about 2½ hours, got up on the teeny-weeny stage and tried to ignore the terrible sound. The highlite was a tanked guy dancing, singing along while undressing in front of the stage. Guards came to escort him elsewhere.
That was about it, and we concluded that we have to stop this “playing for free” shit – it only put us in these kind of badly thought through places.
