Sometimes I think I'd rather be in Berlin than Munich. Looking at this weekend's listings for the Fritz Club this weekend would be one such reason.
June 30th 2007 - Dinosaur Jr.
Doing a club night as part of their European tour supporting Red Hot Chili Peppers, Berlin welcomes Dino Jr. the day after Munich will largely ignore these guitar superstars in the Olympiastadion.
Shame really, they are a band at their best in a tiny club and at medically-harmful volume, seen them many many times and what they lack in lights and flashy, they bring in sheer noise.
20,00 € to get in plus booth charges, 25,00 € on the door
Freak Scene
July 1st 2007 - Fat Freddys Drop
A band from Wellington, NZ that are a bit difficult to pin down. Soul? Funk? Beats? Reggae? Who cares? It's all good.
Played Glastonbury last week to rave reviews, worth a look for the curious, try the tracks on the website for the sound of the summer.
Playing London Astoria tonight.
