Monsters of Rock’n’Roll, a tribute to Hot Rod Luke 30/03/2008, Hof Ter Lo.
We got there in the late afternoon and by then already 2 bands had played, namely the Mud men and Radio Dead Ones, so can’t really say anything about them. The third band was already well into their set so we checked them out asap, this band was called Deadbuster, it was loud and heavy streetpunk, can’t really recall any of their songs, which you’ll find is the case with most of the bands on this afternoon / evening. After this band the stage belonged to some guy, who called himself Ski King. A German Fellow ( i think) who entertained the audience with some soundmix numbers, but no kidding he has a great voice, heard some good tunes, by Johnny ... continue reading

Rocking around Turnhout.
Adding a few lines to the message of Jack because there were some other fine groups te be seen.
A big crowd joined the local heros the Baboons in "Keizershof" for their well-played set. Of course they played all the songs from their album " Boogie Curse" and songs like John Lee Hooker's "One scotch, one whiskey, one beer" and Bo Diddley's " You can't judge a book by it's cover"
In the "Candela" there was Rockin' Bonnie and the Rot Gut Shots. I've seen two sets of them with songs like Jukebox blues, I wanna make love, Get rhythm, I heard about you,
Little dreamboot, ... The full-packed bar liked it very much.
And in the "Wollewei" ... continue reading

Moonshine Sunday 23/03/08, Oostkamp
Once again an event organized by our good friends from Brugges.
On stage this time: The Mean Mountaineers and The Ugly Buggy Boys. Presentation was done by Franctic Frankie ( we’re gone run into him later this evening aswell).

The set up these guys had, guitar, banjo, mandolin, ukulele, upright bass worked great and tough this was only meant as a one time thing, we ... continue reading
