back from Slug, Ubu, Rennes
Sunday, May 30th, 2010I have rarely seen so few people at a concert, even if the Ubu is small, it was almost scary. I thought this was only concerning the first part and people would come for the main band, but there wasn’t many more people then. It gave a somewhat more intimate effect, but I feel a bit sorry for both bands and they gave us a very nice experience in such harsh conditions.
I already talked about L’Effet Défée which had already opened for Magma in last december. No cymbals or sticks were harmed this time, but they again played a nice set.
Slug plays a pop-jazz-rock kind of music which is interesting, but I thought there wasn’t enough “high” moments in the concert to my taste. Not to dismiss the others, but I think Antoine Paganotti on drums was the most interesting on stage, even though Emmanuel Borghi was almost close to waking up at some point and that would too have been interesting.
