Belfort (F) @ La Poudriere
We gently leave Besançon at about 2 PM. The 2 "days off/nights on" were highly appreciated even though we haven't rested that much. We eat up the miles that separate us from Belfort relatively quick then we arrive at the venue in the afternoon.
Once again, our hosts Mathieu and the Mighty Worms crew get us a very good reception.
"La Poudriere" is among the best of the middle-sized capacity venue. You can put like 300 fellows in there I guess, the stage is great too, maybe a little too small for a 6 member band.
We unload the van, I change the strings of my guitar, we haven't received the new record yet, we soundcheck, pillage the cathering, we then play footbal with the singer from PEPPER who is hanging around half naked, only wearing a short and a pair of thongs when its only 17°C... Nico loses the ball... well the typical routine !!
It's already 9 pm and the venue is only full by 2 thirds... anyways, the REBEL ASSHOLES are swinging their rock n' roll boots out on the floor and it's great!
We've already played 3 or 4 times with them before, but this time it's by far their best performance. We play right away. This is our best gig of the tour, it's hot on stage, we're sweating... and thats' the way we like it! Come on! make way for PEPPER, then here comes the most awaited band: MAD CADDIES that go for a great set, less pirate more reggae influenced... a really good show tonight.
The party goes on until late late night, I don't really remember everything that occured in the end of the night, all I can remember is that we went to bed a 5h30/6h00 am at Mathieu's flat.
