Fantastic 65 minutes of static at that.
65daysofstatic have been tirelessly touring the world since what feels like 2005, and only barely touched the nordic region a fingerful times, which made it get my swift rigorous attention when it was announced that this time they would indeed play Copenhagen. Which is somewhat in the proximity of my willingness of going to live concerts.
Worth mentioning is maybe also that Last.fm has tracked a somewhat embarrassing 8,754 plays (at the time of writing) of my plays of 65. The dark partying ages of 2006-2007.
Tuesday around 6 I was sitting at work, minding my own business when the Tweetie icon suddenly turned blue. Rejoice, a new tweet!
But it wasn’t any tweet. It was a 65daysofstatic (@65dos) tweet.
The tweet exclaimed the following:
KOBENHAVN! 65DOS play the BETA tonight. It holds 90 people. Be one of them! 2 pairs of guestlist to be won! First people to RT to get them!
With my adrenalin pumping and hands shaking I actually managed to get an RT out. Followed was a nerving wait until I got an email from Twitter stating @65dos were following me (starstruck) and that I had a DM that in turn said I got to put down two names. Extreme exhilaration.
Concert was awesome and pretty much all that one could expect from a band of such magnitude. Lot’s of new stuff, more party than ever, but also a few classics like Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!, Fix the Sky a Little and Radio Protector.
Here follows pictures, many of them a bit poor due to me using a borrowed camera and not being that good a friend with it.
