A combination of awesome radio interviews, Top 10 dance hits, crazy Worcester fans and a grueling 13hour drive home directly after the gig welcome to “Acts of Aggression” Cape tour part 2
So the 2nd half of the tour was just as interesting and intense as the 1st part! On Monday the 13th of Dec. we got lost in Cape Town on our way to the UCT Fm studios for an interview, drunken frolics the night before, lost luggage , a dysfunctional GPS and Rush hour traffic conspiring against us, but we made it with 10min to spare!
The very esteemed and clued up Dj “Barbie” interviewed us and it was tons of laughs and interesting questions. Architecture of Aggression (Paedophage) being played during the “drive time”…. Wonder how many accidents and/or heart attacks we caused? Probably the 1st time Death Metal was played during peak hours on air.
The next night Tue the 14th we walked into “Cheetahs” in Brackenfell (Northern Suburbs) to the sound of the “5fm top 10 hits” blaring over the sound system, we just knew it was going to be “One of those” Nights!
The venue was pretty cool though and the people really friendly! Arc Reactor opened the proceedings and Kicked Ass, cool “Groove Metal” tunes. We came on and destroyed the crowd (the ravers all ran away!) but at least we got free drinks so it was cool in the end!
Wednesday was one of the highlights of the tour….. We played at “Die Balke” in Worcester for the “Punk vs. Metal” fest. What a great little venue and spectacular crowd! We got there late (had to take it easy seeing as we had to drive back all the way to Pretoria after the show) so only got to see “Mind Assault” and “Half Price” two seriously Kick -ass bands!
We only got on stage at 00h45 but the crowd was still strong and very supportive as only small town crowds can be! Even though only a handful of people there had heard of us before everyone went nuts, moshing it up for the entire show! Special thanks to everyone there, bands, organizers, the venue and most of all the crowd! The best way to end a tour! We’ll definitely be back! And any bands interested in doing a Western Cape tour would do well to stop @ Worcester!!!
After the show we got off stage, packed up, said our farewells and got in the car sweaty and smelly and took to the road! Needless to say we made it home safe, through the driving rain and floods in the Free state and Gauteng!
Can’t wait to go do it all again! Death Fucking Metal!
Once again thanks to all involved in the Tour in any and every which way!
P.S. I hope the Fucker who stole some of my Drumming equipment at Muzone get’s a serious case of Herpes and Anal Warts! Seriously not cool to steal, especially from Muso’s.
