Bongo's in a Grunge band, who'd have thought it?

Having been added to the Maze 'Grunge night' rather late on in the planning stage, we were happy enough to be the starting band. Providence however decided that we should be the headliner and never shying away from an opportunity, we duly obliged.

Zadkiel, Our Last Confession and Dead Souls joined us on the bill, everyone giving a good showing. Special praise has to go to Dead souls singer Michael for his Cobain style wailing voice, very much enjoyed by myself and for having a bongo player in the band! Well actually it wasn’t a bongo it had a proper name but I forget.....you get the idea.

We took the stage at the staggering time, for a school night, of 11pm. Being ever ready to kick ass and get people rocking the lateness didn’t hold us back. As our usual style we woke up those starting to nod or think of home time with repeated blasts of loud rackus ROCK and personally I think we won over the lateness. People cheered and the mailing list and badges were in demand after the gig, so the desired impact was made.

It's occurred to me lately that it doesn't matter if there are 6 or 60 people in front of you, who's on before or after, where, when the gig is. If you go out there with good music that you personally are excited about, then the vibe rubs off. The band is really getting into that grove at the minute and its making me a happy bunny. My favorite part of the gig at the Maze was Andy in the closing notes of our final song. He went nuts; I've never seen him explode out of a drum kit with such a smile. We are all getting that way. Kazooee is hitting its rhythm and you need to come and witness it.
