My first Basement Jaxx gig was at Homelands
Winchester in May 99 at about 4am, I was half asleep, half frozen and definitely not
paying attention a lot, so my impressions from back then weren't too big. So what was I
expecting from this gig? Not too much to be honest. I like their album, but I didn't know
how they were going to put this on stage.
When they came on they surprised me already in the intro, there was the much harder
beats live than on the album. Wow, this was brilliant! A brazilian dancer was on stage now
making the audience dancing even more and the next song they play is already the well
known Yo Yo ! A female singer comes on stage while the 2 guys
stay concentrated behind their keyboards. For almost every song the singer and/or dancer
on stage changes which gives the show a big variety. Red Alert
comes on with a new female singer and later for Rendez-vu a
Spanish Flamenco dancer is on stage. |
