The moment we walked out of the snow and into the Rio we knew we were
going to have a great time. Following on from a rather disappointing local
group called Darwin, who were supposed to warm up the crowd but really
sent them off the sleep, Nutrajet bounded on to the stage again. As soon
as they revved into the first song we knew that that first gig wasn't a
fluke at all, these guys are amazing every song, every night.
The Rio gig had a much more packed room with people who seemed to actually
want to be there as opposed to those that had stumbled in blindly at
Hartlepool. It was Saturday night now and every was all dressed up and
ready to party. Even the drummer Jeff was all dressed to kill in his white
frilly shirt. To say the chaps were as good as the Hartlepool gig would be
to do them an injustice. Not only were they as good but lead singer Greg
seemed to feed off the crowd and really set about taking some victims.
Their
songs are definitely rock, sometimes a bit punky as in Generation X and
the Ramones type of punk rock as opposed to the Sex Pistols in your face
music. Lead singer Greg pouted and pulled faces like only a true pro can,
in fact if he had slapped on a bit of make-up he would have looked like a
young David Bowie in his Ziggy days. Must have been his elfin like
features and the way he moved around the stage.
The blur from behind was at it again, the beat was pounding as we watched
Jeff's boyish mop of curly fair hair bob across the top of the drum rims.
Occasionally he would jump up onto his seat and then smash back down to
the drums with a deafening drum roll. WOW! what can you say? There are no
words in the dictionary to describe how good these chaps are, except WOW!
If you don't believe me then go check them out for yourself.
OH AH, OH AH, OH AH! Celebrity Fist! Celebrity Fist! ..... beware these
songs should carry a health warning as they etch themselves onto your very
skull and stay there, playing havoc with your brain cells. |
