Georg Wadenius wikipedia/Georg_Wadenius – Reconnection. Mostly cover of other artists, with artists like Nina Persson and Frida from ABBA doing the vocals. I enjoy the songs he has done together with Anderas Kleerup, but also the Peter Garbriel cover “Don’t give up” (Spotify) where Silje Nergaard is doing vocals.
As I remember it, it was the Brothers in Arms cover with Nina Persson which draw my attention to this album.
Known as Hello Saferide abroad or Säkert! in her home country Sweden, this is the second cd by Annika Nordin.
Yesterday me, Espen and Sigurd went to see Imperial State Electric live in concert at John Dee with their lead singer Nicke Royale, formerly known from the great band Hellacopters. Really love the energy they created on stage, very limited small talk in between songs, play one then on to the next – just as it should be. Just like when Nicke performed together with Hellacopters at Hove some years ago, they played about five songs, then he said “Tjänare Norje”, and kept on playing!!! How cool is that??
Serena Ryder, bought by chance, mostly because she did a cover of Bruce Springsteen and his song Racing In the Street. A bit country I would describe it as, kinda like Melissa Etheridge maybe. Elin did really like the cover art on the inside of the cd cover
More than one year has passed since the last time I did update this category. Anyhow, now back on track again. First cd this year, a must have in my collection, Darkness On The Edge Of Town

In three days it is one year since we got married, what better occasion than our one year anniversary to upload the video of Elin singing to Youtube. Use the direct link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rK-57qDd2WE or watch the embedded clip below.
[video:youtube:rK-57qDd2WE]Johan Lundgren is playing the guitar and Lars Tormod Jenset is playing the bass. Roy Helmersen did his share of work behind the camera.
Members of Kyuss have gone on to form or play in several notable bands including Queens of the Stone Age, Fu Manchu, Unida, Brant Bjork, Eagles of Death Metal, Mondo Generator, Hermano, Dwarves, Slo Burn and Them Crooked Vultures.

Right now, Gardenia by Kyuss – loving it!!
Yesterday I met my friend Marco, first we went out to eat and afterwards we went to see Orango in concert. Four years since the first time I saw them playing live. This time I found the concert much better, enjoyed the new songs and also the fact that they followed the principle which among others Nicke Andersson is a hardcore fan of “Don’t talk, just play the music” (Remembering the Hellacopters concert from Hove-festivalen two years ago when they played fours songs without saying anything, then Nicke said “Tjena Norje”, and played on…love it!!). First time I saw Orango they talked to much, but now they played with minimal pauses between the songs, love it! So thumbs up for Trond, showing his torso, and the rest of the band.
Marco and I at Last Train before the band started playing
Yesterday Espen, Sigurd and I went to see Fu Manchu in concert at Rockefeller. Must admit I was very tired when leaving home, and sort of regretted that I had said to them that we should go out, have a few beers and then try to get tickets for the concert. But as soon as they started playing all regrets flew away…Fu Manchu plays the type of music that you are not able to play in any other way than very loud. With that in mind, Fu Manchu in concert is my best experience ever with their music – pure stoner rock…
Me headbanging and Sigurd having a good time
Before the concert Sigurd asked what kind of music Fu Manchu plays, and I ended up saying “Rock’n roll, but not feelgood like ‘I love rock n roll’ with Joan Jett…” but I must admit I felt very good when they played 🙂
And Sverre: You missed all three: King of the Road, Mongoose and Weird Beard …
Another funny thing, Elin thought I said “Manu Chao”, so she was a bit shocked when I played a song by Fu Manchu, not what she had expected
