This thursday Caen-based heavy blues band Loudzo played the El "Hell" Camino. Loud riffs, high energy and sweat made the fusebox trip twice! That was a cool one!
Most of you must have understood that - for us kids born in the eighties - the nineteen nineties have left a pleasant scent trail that we (for the majority of us downtempo aficionados) like to sniff our way back to. I had been looking for V love 12" - The Wilderness for so long that it had become quite obvious that I would never lay my fingers on it. Like the old sailor says that there is nothing you can do that will turn the tide I had grown accustomed to the idea that sometimes you can dig in the crates, go to yard sales, raid second-hand record stores, ask your friends around and never find that record that you have been longing for. Yet sometimes, the tide finally turns and the 1995 downtempo tidal waves hits you right in the face. 
Another evening another band. This one had a really cheap microphone stand and it seems that they had to cut the gig short because some neighbour called in the cops for noise disturbance. So much for a thursday night. The gig was nice though. Even if the guys didn't create anything new, they played some BRMC-Stooges-infused rock 'n' roll. I listened to it, enjoyed it, had a pint, took a shit and left. SOUNDCLOUD
