As you may, or may not know, I play the bass in The Fan Scare, which we started this spring. Our first gig was at the Skvuppfestivalen, and it was just fun getting on stage again after all this time. My first instrument (after the play organ we had) was bass, but it has taken me 30 years of other instruments to get the hang on it (well, I`m still no virtuoso yet). So Saturday the 6 of august me and the other band members went on stage to serve our first ode to our old idols. Starting it all with an instrumental rock version of Hava Nagila and we continued with: Alice Cooper – Poison, David Bowie – Starman, Santana – Black Magic Woman, Pink Floyd – Comfortably Numb, Deep Purple – When a Blind Man Cries and Gary Moore – Still Got the Blues. There are some videos shoots from the gig out and you can find some of them here. We had a great time with the crowd and we hope to come back next year. It was just skvupptastic!
