The Movement – Knust, 27.09.2014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

That was a busy weekend – a great party themed “Fate” on Friday, a football game to coach on Saturday afternoon (a tight 0:1 home loss) and a Movement show at the Knust on Saturday evening – i felt almost flat out, those who where at the party on Friday too and stayed until the wee of the morning looked even worse but hey…that’s what life is for! And as just experienced with a strike by Mr. and\/or Mrs. Fate life can change without warning. Forever.<\/p>\n

The audience would have packed the Indra (where Sam normally does his shows) and within the rather spacious Knust it feld almost “empty”, a feeling (paired with the “high” stage) that on top of a slight hangover somehow negatively impacted my show experience.<\/p>\n

Top Buzzer (Knust, 27.09.2014)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

First on where Top Buzzer, a UK power-pop trio with all the annotations that a smart UK band carries: Tongue in check, party attitude and full of energy – but did they have something unique? Mhh, not quiet. I think i would not buy a record…but as an energetic party band they make sense. Bonus: stage uniform. Extra bonus: Pop Muzik cover. Bad choice: X-Ray Spex cover. Double bonus: 47 second commercial as a song. And as ever they had the burden of the empty stage and empty hall. Support stint – tough one.<\/p>\n

The Movement (Knust, 27.09.2014)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Next on The Movement, our upright danish comrades. \u00a0If there is one thing, than it is stage persona and stage style. Just class! Hitting Hamburg was the last leg of a long EU Tour but they did not look any tired. Perfect. Those who regularly read here know that i do love to capture the first moments of a band on stage – the “getting on and blasting into the first song”. For The Movement this was quite nice this time round, but see yourself:<\/p>\n
