The Beat Rock Fest came and went almost without a whisper
but openers Navicula still came on stage and blew us and
almost the Hard Rock Café soundsystem away.
This was Style Rock on a par with Stone Temple Pilots:
angsty, angry poetic and featuring a djembe drum at one
point.
The low numbers were down to a rained out weekend.
While the tight little rock posse and some pristine
Hell’s Angels bounced around gamely, a deluge was
unleashing itself outside. Postmen came on after Navicula
and gave a typically energetic performance, well received
as usual, especially by the Hell’s Angels. Superman
Is Dead wrapped things up, performing off the back off
a huge concert in Denpasar, this was one for the family
and the boys played a nice tight set for us all.
The Fest will be back on next month with new bands and
big sponsors etc to get the show movin’ up a notch.
Also rockers, watch out for the Bikey Rock Concert at
GWK in June. Loads of local and international bands on
the way. |
