Decortica Live at the Kings Arms Tavern, Auckland

A quick musical interlude.

Last Monday one of my friends asked me if I liked music... and then if I liked loud music, and in the evening I found myself with her at the Kings Arms Tavern in Auckland.

 

This is one of the homes of alternative music, and the band we were seeing, Decortica, fit right in. 

Here's some before pics - the setup...

and the sound board... was kinda cool :)

The band is a merry crew of three and they have a real synchronicity going on, they play very well together, reacting off each other in each song.

 

There was also some mad lighting effects going on.

Even with the complimentary earplugs they now hand out at these 'LOUD' Live music gigs, my ears were ringing by the end of the night.

I had spent so much time basically at the stage front attempting to get some decent shots with my little camera, by the end of the evening I was feeling like a groupie!

Here's a bit of video I took on the night, this is not my style of music, but I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this talented bunch get up there and strut their stuff.

There ain't nothing like live music! Shinkansen, Shinkansen, Shinkansen, Shinkansen Aooooooo!
