On the last night of our tour, the 8th May in Liverpool, we were treated to one of the most wonderful nights and days we'll ever enjoy. We were playing for our good buddy Joe Wills, who plays in a fucking brilliant Liverpool-based band called Dire Wolfe, who'd booked us originally for the Caledonia - but due to cancellations and noodle bar constructions we were left fairly in the dark at where the gig would be.
Upon arriving at our destination (designated by Yardie, our rasta sat nav), we discovered Joe had brought us to an abandoned Town House, Casa De Brujas, that had been taken over by a group of artists who had kindly allowed Joe and his team to put on what they called 'Fiesta Obscenic'....
This whole amazing victorian townhouse had been transformed by a small group of students led by Joe, into an art installation, jumble sale, bar and double gig-room...all in the name of charity. So we dived in, as people started to flood in from 4pm...we nicked some Cameras and bounced around the house, filming, drinking and watching amazing band after amazing band. We'd never felt so priviledged to be among such insanely talented, ambitious people - it was like being in the Factory or something, and Joe was an even more sexually confused Andy Warhol, playing us like puppets. Personally, my favourite bands were Blue Demon (an amazing Rockabilly band), We Come Out Like Tigers and Stealing Sheep - but everyone was amazing, literally we've never seen such a fabulous group of bands in one place. Liverpool is sick. We played a nuts show, before Tom Sheriff took me out on the drumkit before we lay, motionless, in a pool of my sweat - like the moment of peace after having made love.
Congratulations to Joe, and everyone involved with Obscenic.
Check them out on facebook, we will have lots of photos soon..........
