I did travel many a mile to see the band they call the Backyard
Babies the other night and they were STUPENDOUSLY, SEXUALLY,
ORGASMICALLY, ROCKINGLY, KICK-ASSINGLY,
MAGNIFICANTLY,GROOP-DOGDRILL-TROUNCINGLY ACE!!!!!
Well, I enjoyed the night as you can tell. No more shall I mock Sweedish
rockers because in my opinion, power-chord rock and roll is back in
style, cooler than ever and definately here for a long time, with the
afore mentioned Scandinavians heading the way with avengance!!!
The night started off groovily with the DJ-fellah playing Girlfriend
Clothes whilst we, the expectant audiance, gently rocked our heads
back and forth to the soothing tones of Ginger and crew, just warming
up you know!!!Well, little did I know how much warming up would be
needed!!!! Kicking straight into 8-balled, an overzealous backing
guitar player (Dregen) screamed something about Geordies at us whilst a
Drummer who has made sideburns fashionable again simply hurled a
broken stick into the crowd, only to continue using another one. The
singer looks uncannily like Danny Wildheart and the bass player like
my mate Marius!!!Anyway, they all kicked arse big style and proceeded
to melt the stage and my ears with total rock and roll, not even
stopping between songs for more than 5 seconds literally!!!
the set lasted about an hour and I even got a limited EP signed after
the gig as I went out to the tour bus and got them to scrawl cool
stuff on it!!!!!
