Okay my band plays more often, but tonight it was like the real thing. Picture this: a big hall, 800 people, two guys for the sound, one for the light, a dressingroom with drinks (no liquer
) and a free dinner.
The sound was solid, great. Fantastic to even hear yourself on stage.
The venue was a 60ties revivalthing. The Fab5 were opening up for a real hitmachine in the sixties, "The Fortunes". We played a set of Beatlehits, starting with the early work; Hard daysnight / Help / We can work it out etc. And finishing with songs like Lady Madonna / One after nine 0 nine / Come together / Get Back, The crowed was dancing, I even saw people jump a little bit.
While glancing the dancefloor I thought I saw a scene of the movie: "Cocoon" Oldtimers dancing and swinging, like they just drank from the well of eternal youth. I bet they feel different in the morning
There was a lady, not to old; she told me afterwards that she had gooseflesh while we played "Girl" What can I say! As a musician, there is no bigger cheer!
Anyway, it is not the indiething, no J. stuff, the alternative music I love so much, but it was great to taste a small piece of this….You know you can´t tell such a story without me demanding pictures of your amazing self on stage !
I really hope you all dressed up like the beatles ca. Please Please Me.
Salutes and drumrolls for your rÃ¥kkstar experience Hansione !also, was it the ‘Fire Brigade,’ Fortunes ?

LOL In fact my fellowbadmates did the tits thing
while I sung : "she’s the kind of girl who puts you down…"Robert: No beatlesuits, far too expencive, just black T’s with the FAB5logo on it. And nog whig!
Firebrigade

Not sure about that tune, but they playes : here it comes again, you’ve got your troubles. here comes that rainy day feeling again.
I had the feeling that the fortunes also took a little zip from that "cocoon-well""Hansione " wrote:Not sure about that tune, but they playes : here it comes again, you’ve got your troubles. here comes that rainy day feeling again.
