Music #21: imperial State electric rocked the house!

Damn! Imperial State electric yesterday was a blast! It just oozes 60's rock like the kinks and the who over it. Nicke Andersson knows how to handle a stage!
The bassplayer looked like he was just coming of the set from a german soft pornmovie from the 70's, the Other guitarrist had the looks of a 60's rocker.
They had real fun and just kicked in the overdrive from start! The sound live were far more impressive and dirtier than the albumversions. They played a whole heap of Songs, among them Shelterd in the sand, Rock science and deja vu.

Music #20: imperial State electric @bastionen Uddevalla

Tonight i'm off to enjoy Nicke Anderssons New project, imperial state electric. It was at first a solo project efter hellacopters laid Their shoes on the shelf.
But he quickly decided to form a band instead. So here's a Song by them.

Music #19: Axl´s Ego strikes again!

BB News Axl Rose declines...

The big ego strikes again, axl rose has declined to be taken into the rock hall of fame in absentia (it means that he wont be in the rolls for guns´n´roses inauguration to the hall of fame). a lot of people had their hopes up that the original setting would play toghether at the inauguraition of GnR into the hall of fame.

Slash made a statement that he would go into this with his blinders on. but it seems that one mans ego is far to big for this worl, namely Axl Rose. Many bands would jump on the chance to get into the rock hall of fame and set aside whatever quarrels there may be for that one day, after all, it´s a big honor for most bands and musicians but for one.

But hey, it´s not like it´s unexpected of him. he´s been living in his little dreamworld and starting concerts late, as much as a couple of hours late. he´s in a battle with english promoters since he thinks they stopped him from delivering to his fans at the tour last year i think. they turned of the power at 02.00 at most of his events, but he started like an hour to late so can´t see what he´s complaining about.

Music #18: off to trollhättan to see In Flames

Tonight I´m gonna enjoy In Flames in a club gig at trollhättans "people´s house" or folkets hus as the swedish term is. In Flames is doing a small tour of club gigs in sweden, going back to their roots you could say. And I think it will be a hell of a gig, gonna be fun to see them in a small venue.

So we have to have a song by them

In Flames - the quiet place
