THE OWL JOLSONS Guests to the Feerin for years already, and with good reason. Immerse yourself ...

'On 'Vi Og Vi' lf Arnalds opens her heart and lets us in. An incredible emotional and warm record which is sure to leave its traces.' (Morgunbladid) Admittedly: presenting lf Arnalds and lafur Arnalds on one evening... there are easier 'tongue twisters'http://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102054 MOTRHEAD, Zaal, 2008-11-25 20:00- May 29, 2008 MOTRHEAD, The British hardrockers, with Lemmy Kilmister at the wheel, celebrated ther thirtieth anniversary 3 years ago. For those who can't recall the musical highlights of that immense carreer, lets just line up a few classics: 'The Ace Of Spades', 'Dead Men Tell No Tales', 'Stone Dead Forever', 'Overkill', 'Iron Fist', 'Stay Clean', 'Iron Horse - Born To Lose', 'We Are The Roadcrew', 'Killed By Death', and many more.

In full his name is of course Seun Ransome Anikulapo Kuti and, more than other offspring of this exceptional family, Seun sounds like the worthy successor to the much talked-about Nigerian frontman. Fela Kuti was an intriguing politian, musician and clan leader. His trademark was incredibly long, but especially exceptionally hypnotic, Afrobeathttp://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102059 DUB INC, ABBox, 2008-10-08 20:00- May 28, 2008 Extremely witty reggae from Saint-Etienne, France. 'Afrikya' is their brilliant third CD (here via Pias) and again this time that fantastic joie de jouer resounds in all directions. Like a reggae big bang band in a busy street, mostly in enjoyably chanting French or playful English (or yet another irresistable language, n'importe, just as long as it cheerfully gets going.) DUB INC recently attracted a mass of supporters here to a sold-ouhttp://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102057 ELLIOT MINOR, ABClub, 2008-11-29 20:00- May 28, 2008 ELLIOT MINOR is a very young, pop-punk addicted fivesome from York, Great Britain, that until recently went through life as The Academy. It goes without saying that they're strongly influenced by emo big shots like The Used of Something Corporate, but just as much by the symfonic pop-sensitivity of Muse or The Beach Boys. Following 5 singles that effortlessly fell into the top 40, their untitled debut was recently released and it's obligathttp://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102055 LIEVEN TAVERNIER - DE NIEUWE SNAAR, WARANDEPARK, 2008-08-29 12:00- May 27, 2008http://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102067 GUIDO BELCANTO + KING FREDDY, WARANDEPARK, 2008-08-26 12:00- May 27, 2008http://www.abconcerts.be/ab2/&l=3&p=200&c=102064 |
