Krems bis

I eventually found the jack i needed to upload my pictures in my computer. Here are some more pics from Donau Festival and a truly fantastic video of the Girlmonster Orchestra rehearsing and finally making it real. Historic. 


The hotel we were staying at was so safe they would let the artist's keys in enveloppes outside.
Butthole Surfers, I know where you live. 


As I arrived on the festival the day before the rest of my band, I had the chance to enjoy a few beers with our friends Zombie Zombie. (I blured the guy on the left to make sure you understand who the real Zombies are).

Kokoboy's guitar had the privilege to watch The Raincoats' gig from the stage, comfortably seated on a stand. Ana Da Silva here.


Gina Birch here.

And now the moment you were all waiting for. (WARNING: the footage is great but due to low budget i had to hire a very bad editor and make the closing credits myself. You'll recognize my personal style there).

KREMS, AUSTRIA (Donau Festival)


We're just back from Austria where we played the Donau Festival. We were part of the Girlmonster night curated by Chicks On Speed. Here are some pictures taken by Renarde.
There's more to come, including crazy videos featuring The Raincoats, Chicks On Speed, topless chicks, crazy chicks, beautiful chicks, talented chicks, amazing chicks.
For now, let's set the scene :


Austrian Airline's meal. Bizarre food triangle.


The hugest oil refinery, only 2 minutes from the airport. Beauty is sometimes hard to picture.


Smurf's tights going down the hotel stairs


Jason Pierce "shining a light"


Caro and Kiddo in the dressing room. Spiritualized were given that same dressing room the day before. The fridge still shines a light too.


Kokoboy is so talented he can be barefoot while wearing socks. Here he's making this impressive illusion trick by the water of the Danube.



Geometry. Again.
