Watts' next

Photo: John Watts poster
John Watts, ex Fischer-Z mastermind, will tour and play in Karlsruhe, Germany on 07.11. Guess that makes for a more fun date than 9/11, anyway. Let's leave it to the businessmen to die young and enjoy the show.

Photograph: Fischer-Z playing live, 'real life is good enough' tourIf you're not sure it's for you, you might like to visit the downloads page for some free & legal previews — (instant) registration is required for Real life is good enough, the only-but-complete MP3, the title track from the new album, but the video for Birthday is freely available. Birthday is some simple-but-fun rock'n'roll (in Fischer-Z terms, it might blend more nicely with Destination Paradise than with Reveal); Life is good enough seems a tad underproduced, back to the basics. This also bothered me a little on some of the tracks of the Steve Skaith Band's latest album (incidentally, the SSB played in the same venue John will), Thanks ever so bloody much, MTV, for stupid "Unplugged!" Ahem.

Anyway, that kinda thing should work nicely as live-music, you know, honest, hand-made (pop-) rock, and Fischer-Z concerts used to be fun, so I expect to be going.

Azundris on :

*I forgot to log this right after going (about two months ago), so I don't remember the playlist anymore. The band was pretty much John and this guy Sam Walker who played drums; Sam also was the opener (with guitar this time), but to be fair, he wasn't very good at the latter. He tried for some jazzy singer/songwriter thing, and just didn't seem to have the voice for it. The Fischer-Z bit was fun, definitely worth the money, but no must-see, either. A bit of a mixed bag, really, partially due to the limited line-up.
