There’s some footage of last night’s gig. They opened with the legendary Enter the Ninja. Now where they the R75 worth? A short but resounding yes. They own the stage. The music is unique. It’s fresh and their experience from their previous acts shows. Really good diction. They perform, and that’s what they do best. They live their characters and aren’t afraid to overstep boundaries – ie Ninja’s cock swinging in Spongebob undies or Yo-landi’s overt sexuality. It’s different and an experience. Oddly enough the swearing didn’t bother me that much. I thought it would, but it felt part of their act and weren’t forced. Would I go see them again? Yes, the vibe is just insane.
A surprise of the night was also DJ Solarize, Leon Botha, the progeria survivor, doing the dopest classic hip-hop turntablin’ DJ set.
Lack of blogging here is due to: Confused LaoWai, Social Mandarin (my other projects) and then some of these great social things. I wish I could’ve said my blogging was cut down due to having a girlfriend, but alas not yet. I’m big on going to gigs. So here’s a taste of where I’ve been.
The other night after a celebratory afterparty with friends (whom some of them won a local serenade competition) me and a friend trapsied up Merriman Avenue; one of Stellenbosch’s main student arteries. At 3 0′clock in the morning we encountered this. (Oh, yeah I’m totally doing the “to be continued” vibe here).
