I went and saw Snowdroppers play at the Annandale last night, this was the only band that I regret not seeing at Peats Ridge so I'm glad I finally saw them. It was so much fun, they started out ripping off 1920's blues I'm pretty sure but have just released their debut album of original songs and it's still pretty blues and rockabilly but sped up and almost a bit more punky than you'd expect.
I think I freaked the girls out a bit cause I went straight into the moshpit. I got really carried away and totally forgot who I was and just totally let go and slammed into people and jumped around and sweated on EVERYONE! It was amazing. I felt like I was 16 again and you know how I love recapturing my youth!
But then it all came rushing back and hit me in the face. Literally. I punched myself in the face with my lomo camera. now my jaw and my camera doesn't work. Devastated.
So I spent a whole lot of time on youtube this morning (as you can see frm previous posts). This is a video of The Snowdroppers when they turned the bridge hotel in prymont (?) I think into a 1920's beer house, with cigarette girls and chicken wire in front of the stage, and dirty floors and knickers from the ceiling. They had a residency for a month there in November.
Hope you like them, but this clip doesn't do the crowd last night justice.
Love you xxx
