Feb 12 2007 @ Le Botanique Brussels, BE

Their best show ever (and I saw them 6 times already)! More than 2h40 of concert - total respect! The crowd was a bit shy even after an amazing start up with Sunless Saturdays but after it went better an better with people dancing and pogo on every song. I was so pleased they played some old school songs like Ugly, Cholly and Give it Up. My favorites for this show were: Skank and go Nuttz, Bonin ...

Ce concert était fabuleux. Denis était de la partie ;-)))) ainsi que ma cousine Renata. Je me suis rarement autant amusé. Everlastbe, es-tu sur qu'ils ont chant? Bonin' ? Si oui, je regrette amèrement les deux blanches que j'ai été boire. "Alcoholic" était génial, ce fut un régal de danser sur "U...

The Botanique is a really cool venue located in an awesome building, formerly a botanical garden. It was nicely filled (considering the very low promotion that the gig received) but not packed and i guess most people were still tired from their week end and they were slow to get into the groov. I tried my best to make people move, but i've had more success earlier. Sound was perfect (i'll post the recording later on) and the setlist had a few incredible surprises: Boning (from memory, hadn't been played since the departure of SpaceyT and Walt in late 2003), Cholly (same), Give it up (same) and... Drunk Skitzo !!! (Arne, where is the setlist?) Nice seeing a few old friends turning up and Mariam, thanks for the dances ! I'd never ever imagined slow dancing on Drunk Skitzo and that made my night. After the show, we went to l'Archiduc, supposedly the oldest jazz club in town. I had a nice chat with dre over anything from american politics to music to africa over to pharmaceutical industry... The club did not play any jazz until the good doctor took over the piano at 4 am and started improvising, very much ?la Mingus on his piano improv disc. I was totally astonished to see angelo perform like that on the piano. that impromptu show ended with an awesome version of Slick Nick. Everyone in the club was mesmerized.

Woooooohooooooo... What can I say... Once more an incredible show... I came in 2 songs too late, so I missed Sunless and Let them hoes fight, but I caught the end of Karma Tsunami... I was planning on attending the show from the background and just enjoy the sound, but alas.. I couldn't keep my body from dancing to the ever stimulating Fishbone sound... It was immediately noticeable: the sound has...
