IV International Blues Festival - Coimbra - Saturday 18/03/2006

Starting the night with a “monster” of Blues called Kenny Brown, living history, walking, talking and singing, is already a fantastic way of begging a night, but the seeing finally Jon Spencer live (even if it is in his new project Heavy Trash, which is awesome, but it also means not having yet the opportunity to see him in Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and that will always be something to be sorry about)! And if you add a moustache, 50’s style, rockabilly, blues, a little bit of Elvis gone wild and a fantastic live performance then you end your night in heaven or hell, as you prefer, as long as it’s fun, hot and wild!

Once again I faced the same problem how can anybody perfectly sane sit all through a concert like that? Having seats doesn’t mean you have to actually sit, especially if you are not 90 years old and on a wheelchair!!! One of these days I’ll send good manners too hell and who wants to sit down all through a concert as last Saturday’s one can go and sit on the stairs…

Anyway, if you have the chance watch both Kenny Brown and Heavy Trash, it’s worth it!
