concert: She Keeps Bees & Wild Moccasins (Tornado) Location: L'International, Paris Date: 02/05/2011 Spectators sauviele
So now is No more time here Süßwarenpop à la Those Dancing Days. At least temporarily. She Keeps Bees from Brooklyn guest appearances in Paris and offered juicy rock with no frills and Chichi. I'd give yourself Christian, but nothing could probably start with the bluesy raw performance. Too little honey for him, despite the bees in the name. No matter. I left at least I like Jessica and Andy ass off. A rock singer on the Fender Stratocaster and a guy behind the drums, more is needed to ensure proper noise. The philistine-like Saturday-night audience roared, not knowing who is playing really. Idiots. Rabble. Gutdurchesser. And an ass violin photographer in front of me, shot a hundred thousand photos and I have permanently blocked the view. I would have liked him, pulled his Canon to the head.
Nevertheless, it was a powerful concert, which I would like to tell you more tomorrow. knew
The Wild Moccasins from Texas with their power pop and bred, hyperactive Singer please. Tornado in France, however, were empty and bored me terribly.

good taste in music can have fatal consequences. I am sure that KTG not for its most likely not properly acquired-GP title, but because of its Preference for AC resign / DC had. Mrs Merkel had to intervene as easy. It has certainly told him: "KT is not so tragic that your License to Operate in a strange way, unable to come, but someone who AC / DC like, I can not continue to hold Sorry.."
strange anyway, that the media more and more politicians to pop stars hochsterilisieren . "Barack Obama is your newest contact at Flickr," or "Obama wants to be friends with you on Facebook," which I was already at that time before English. In which band is playing this for Barack Obama?, Then I would always like to know.
There No, not pop stars in politics that exist only on the Konzerttagebuch.de. Therefore, we also reads my mom so much. And Norman Palm from Berlin is in fact a flawless pop star. Yes, what? Those who resist gorgeous there? Hey, Norman is on City Long under contract and therefore label colleague of Win Butler and Marcus Mumford, all right? And at City long there is only aces. Nice to see that Norman won the nice boy next door has remained. Although next door with him also can mean Mexico City, where he was because of love hinreist time to time. A globetrotter, this likeable fellow, who studied in Paris, the arts, there associated with the pleasure of his thesis and in the course of his wonderful booklet for his first album Songs crafted by hand. And no one say that he had not even made the drawings and sketches! Oh, and if so. If a ghost artist should have had his finger in the game (probability = 0), I would like Norman anyway. Especially following his second album Shore to Shore , which he promoted in France now, not everything about the debut Songs and around on screen projected images from the fine book, but rather great, Mood-making is harvested, with electric guitar pop that has captured the Norman on Monday night in Paris the people.
An attractive crowd had gathered at a late hour. Some were very pretty girl with flawless legs and dads credit card made themselves comfortable on the red sofa and waited sipping cocktails or beer at the beginning of the show. Even Norman and his Finnish band members were drinking and what once met comfortably on the beautiful evening. I myself was sitting on dry land. Not because I alcohol forever and would have sworn off forever, but me because the drinks were too expensive here. 15 euros for a beer (is that right? Or is it only 10?), Are just too violent and mortal as I had no coupons such as the pop star Norman Palm and his bandmates. However, I felt a fiddle, as the very attractive wife of keyboardist Janne sat next to me and her magnificent blue eyes shone (Selbstermahung: Oliver, now calm down up again).
order O Clock 15 went then release it. The Power Trio erfeute from the start with fine guitar melodies and modern synth beats on Norman with his great voice (somewhere between Erlend Oye, Destroyer and the Californians Bart Davenport to settle) sang about it. Vocally, he has made clear progress, his vocal repertoire seemed to me more diverse and more subtle than it used to be more polished falsetto. The three musicians succeeded brilliantly, combining folk with electro and strike at the same time happy, but also thoughtful, melancholy tones. hear the music of Norman, I always wake up with a laughing and a crying eye, he is able to carry my serotonin output, but also sentimental feelings. But above all these outrageous haunting melodies! Listen Smile a Schmachtsong par excellence, but without manages too much kitsch. Or the casual Country Song Landslide , who invited the Passing by without grooving. Or Easy a catchy synth track with 80-years of perfume and he pluckernden beats.
No wonder that at some point two girls began to storm the tiny dance floor and left out to dance. "Make the pretty girls dance," the Berlin had learned what really mattered tonight! As the wonderful set was over, there was no stopping them anyway. Beauties seeking fun and crowded the dance floor jamming to 80 years, he Trash number as Chinese Eyes Fancy or other classics of Italo Disco Genres totally off. ran As a number of the Smiths, I went. Not because I have the old tape of Morrissey does not like, but you should go because if it is at its best. Also, I was afraid that they would again play an Italo disco abomination. When you sing along, would be flown up that I have laying around from that stuff still tons of plates in my home. A bad taste in music is known, can have fatal consequences!
Concert: Winter Sleep & Mona & Sea Of Bees, Rah Rah Location: La Flèche d'or, Paris Date: 02.03. 2011 Attendance: half empty (the pessimists say), half full (the optimists)
Oh, menno! Everything went a bit silly at this 2nd March 2011!
Because my wife asked me forcefully, still in in the pharmacy insulin for our diabetic cat (Photo play when trying glockenspiel) to get, I lost a lot of time and trickled in very late or in the Paris Fleche d'. I was standing only to 21 clock 20 at the box office, fired my 10 € admission fee (very fair to 4 bands) when I saw my friend Yves behind me, who had two free tickets and had come alone. To take advantage of its excess space in guest list, but it was too late, I had made the ticket sales already and make the whole thing was irreversible. € 10 shooting in the air! Well, I hope the clay proportion is also the bands. But that's my bad luck potential was not exhausted, because when I was on the way home wanted to change the metro line, heard a loudspeaker announcement that made it absolutely clear that the Metro company was now over. I had to take a taxi and another 10 € wandered into another of my purse.
Most galling was the fact that I calculated the bands that I'd like to see, had pronounced Rah Rah and Sea of Bees, by my pharmacy course missed. Damn!
Rah Rah are a six-member (usually they are seven, but now only six) mixed-sex, Canadian indie rock band to me our friends plate made of pre-court attention ( click! ) have. I-tunes she had one day to the "Best New Canadian Band" is selected, and people who have been right there told me that they musically with Los Campesinos! or Arcade Fire are not comparable.
Sea Of Bees is again the project by Julie Ann Bee, who had argued with another musician in my absence, a set of acoustic and electric guitar, described by many viewers as a very nice was. To console me, I might at least have their album Songs Of The Ravens purchased for 10 € and I still nice with the natural-looking artist entertained.
But I have missed not only bands, but also of the view:
Mona from Nashville, Tennessee but I would not really needed. A bombastic Poser band without substance and not one good song in the repertoire, but still experiences a relatively strong hype. The green-beaked guys around singer Nick Brown (a kind of optical Joe "The Clash" Strummer) could hang out the hard and sounded like a bad copy of Kings Of Leon (good grief! Colleagues are already bad!). Just keep them off when they should be set before you in the summer festival stages. Uses rather the break to go eat. A clear case, I like it a lot better Mohna as Mona.
The last band of the night were then ran the Canadians Wintersleep. A pleasant, very solid indie rock band, but it managed only rarely today, let sparks fly. The postpunkige bass, groovy drums and the nasal Nörgelstimme by Paul Murphy (Bob Dylan meets Paul Banks) did indeed fallen, but the really exciting moments were sown far and few between. At no stage raised from the concert really, although some songs were delivered fast-paced and tight. Something is missing this band. Musically they are somewhere between REM, Guided By Voices, Interpol, but almost never reached they whose charisma and catchyness. The concert was thus elevated average, no more and no less.
All in all a rather Duch adult evening concert. Perhaps I should rather go to hättte Peter Bjorn & John in the packed International? Was free, but saw people who were late, but virtually nothing. says at least Rocker Paris. Sauheiß and it should have been. So nothing missed? Moment, the rocker Paris talks about many beautiful Swedish women. Damn!

Concert: Those Dancing Days Location: Luxor, Cologne Date: 01.03.2011 Spectators attended quite well Duration: Those Dancing Days almost 55 min, 40 min Blackberries
Next week will Daydreams and Nightmares, the second panel of Swedish girl band Those Dancing Days. 2008, I had seen the five channels in the floor beams and MTC was of concert and on their first EP very enthusiastic. Then I lost the interim at Wichita Those Dancing Days have come under a bit out of sight. About a year ago met singer Linnea me then as a guest singer on one of the singles God Help The Girl by Belle & Sebastian singer Stuart Murdoch again (she is also on the cover of the single).
And then came for me in so many ways outstanding Bowlie Festival in December in southern England. This Belle & Sebastian their favorite bands were invited, which included Those Dancing Days. Their nightly show in Minehead was outstanding, although I was dog broken and had to give up at some point. The next evening saw Linnea but once again, because she appeared as a guest singer with Belle & Sebastian and Lazy Lane Painter Jane sang - magic!
Since then, the Swedes came firmly back in the good bands in my book, there was no chance to miss today's concert, it was set.
Previously I had been able to interview in the afternoon Linnea singer and guitarist Rebecca. When we talked about different concert experiences in different parts of the world, I claimed that the public in England was euphoric mood and create more than the German. Rebecka and Linnea disagreed vehemently. The German public was much more active and dance and celebrate, the English mostly stood around bored and overly critical. I was too polite to clarify things for granted nonsense. Not a bad decision, because as TDD started their show, began to rage at the Luxor and held until the last by a tone. Dancing days indicated.
The mood was not unduly as good as the mix of old and new pieces - all great - but above all the stage presence of the young women was excellent! No question as to why this band Wichita, the musical might not fit properly into the program, under contract. Or why at least one of the musicians from Belle & Sebastian TDD bands were among the five that he wanted to invite for Bowlie.
While Linnea and keyboardist Lisa wild dancing and especially bassist Mimmi and guitarist Rebecka as heavy musicians acted, drummer Cissi is the secret star of a live presentation of the band. It suggests in such a frantic pace on their drums, as I experienced it rarely, 50 minutes of continuous fire. work behind the merch table, so here is the five so-nice and let loose on stage, they develop an incredible energy.
I was the new album is not terribly familiar because I had heard it only twice before the concert. Daydreams And Nightmares is different but after the first impressions of the predecessor mainly by a repeatedly occurring dark note. By Linneas deep voice (live today perfectly, sat every note), the really gay 60's pop of the band already a dark impact, which won the decisive Gives whistle. The new pieces, Forest of Love, for example, work well beyond the already mysterious song, which I like quite excellent.
Others were hit by the news I'll be yours (most likely a classic Swedish pop), the single entrance Fuck Arias and can not find.
After Bowlie weekend in which chased a fabulous concert the next, I was afraid that much can be explained by my enthusiasm for the performances with the three-day duration of euphoria and the next concerts of the same bands would later disappoint in the usual clubs here . Inevitably. As drinks you love the holiday and take home, where they are no good anymore. Those Dancing Days work even after the holiday. On the contrary, I believe that the band keeps getting better. 2008, I keep it as very good in memory, as well as at the time but not sure. If one also takes into account how young the musicians are that they probably still went to school in 2008, will be expected by Those Dancing Days very much.
Two small things could be better: the sound was terribly mushy, the mic sounded like it had a lot of Hall, who did not belong there. Second Maccabees and singer Orlando Weeks missed for his duet with Linnea! While
the interviews we have quipped, who would invite the band when they an All Tomorrow's Parties weekend should make (such as Battles, Les Savy Fav and Caribou in the coming December). After the concert I gave Rebecca the list of the 40 bands that would invite them **, titled Those Dancing Days' ATP. Let's see if they are eventually asked surprised, I would not.
As the career of the opening act The Black Berries will run, I can not judge. I can imagine that the four men, the single uniform jackets and jeans wore different-colored (white, red, yellow and mint), would like to known as a Libertines concert reviews of Solingen. But I do not have enough enthusiasm, however. Approaches, in particular tunes were ok, the song (no matter from whom, and three of the musicians were singing) I was but not good enough, the instrument solos wanted. In fairness I must say that my attention was away from the moment when I saw the neon sign before the concert with a band logo. From sold-out hall for 5,000, I guess it indicates something, before the silly and a sign of lack of humility before one's own role. Setlist Those Dancing Days, Luxor, Cologne:
