We got so much positive feed back of both the performances and the audience this evening, thank you everyone! What happened was that Peter Nielsen did his premiere as a singer song writer very exclusively and successfully this Monday night. After that we got acquainted with the strange instrument hammer harp, or Dulcimer, played by Vera Renella, who will come back with her band The Offering Band soon. Then we got a performance by Sergio aka Guru Manioca for the second time at Café Montag, a powerful and precise one with dance, rhythm and flutes inspired by Brazilian indian music. Does a tree that falls in the forest when no one is there still make a sound? No one had time to think of that when the Fallen Trees started rocking and grooving like we never heard before, with banjo, mandolin, base, cajun drum and great voices. They said this was also a premiere but I wonder. Patrik Högberg's weekly was in honour of Christoph Lambert, who's birthday it was, and all the songs he played were from the movie The Highlander, and translated from Gaellic. Didn't know there even is a word for colostomy-bag in Gaellic. John Ax had come in from Stockholm to play a great gig together with his friend Mackan who played accoustic base. Those of you who where at Café Montag's first night at Kong know that John Ax plays the blues in a very delicate and unique way. We still had time to squeeze in Pelle and his guitar in the end, but we will see more of him on Monday... This night was hosted by Andreas who multitasked with sound and DJ -ing and Linnéa, who multitasked as everything else, as Fred and James had been relieved of their tasks this night, but will be back with new tricks on Monday...
