ILEGAL – live in Liege, Belgium – 9/11/12

Last year on 9/11 I took the train to Liege, Belgium, the closest place ILEGAL were playing on their seven week tour across Europe. Forming in Montreal, Canada, all the members of this raw punk / hardcore band were “illegal immigrants” except for the bassist. Locio, the singer, is from Mexico. Johnne, the drummer is from Finland. Simon, the guitarist is from England/USA, leaving the bassist, Jason, as the only legal Canadian resident. I’ve tried twice to do an interview with Ilegal, the first time the tape player was broken and the second time we went out drinking after the show and the interview never happened…

Fiesta Des Ursulines 2012 – Bruxelles, Belgium

The Fiesta Des Urulines is a crazy day of eccentricity that takes place in the heart of Brussels in Belgium once a year. Organized by the Brusk (is dead) collective, this skate-music party is a full day fiesta combining concrete bowl skating with music ranging from punk to rock n roll to jazz and electro along with silkscreening demos, organic food, specialty belgium beers, a grafitti session, and another skate session on the D.I.Y street course which was built the day before along with a full wooden shack sun shade 0 star sleeping accommodation.
