I seem to have become a semi-regular at La Fleche d'Or. I'm sure anyone who has been there once will just continue to check for the updates and go there. If only it's not so far (20th arrondissement), I would just pop in there every other night.
There were a few interesting gigs to see last night. We initially planned to see two bands, Lisa Li-Lund and Fugu...
Lisa Li-Lund was the opening act of the night...I would say that it sucks for whoever gets to be an opening act because at 8ish pm, there would hardly be anyone. Proven true by this night as we arrived around 8.40 pm, the gig has just started. There were like 20 persons in the audience! I totally felt bad for her... I would have to say though that Lisa seemed most amateur compared to all the "new" bands I have seen at Flech d'Or. Probably she was nervous that no one came to see her so she made some mistakes on the stage...? However, it was good to hear my favorite song, "12000 waves". Checking her page, there seems to be quite a few more shows for her. Wish her a good luck.
Next one, Fugu, was my friend's favorite. That's pretty much why I could drag her there. They have their fans alright. Even the song "Here Today" seems quite popular in the radio stations in Bangkok!! I was surprised to find out that. Anyway, lots more people showed up and loosely filled up the room...lots more cheering going on in the hall. I wouldn't say that I have become their fan but definitely to see them live got me to continue to see what's going on with them. At least I could understand all the things they sing (unlike other French bands) so pour quoi pas?
