EQUALEFT @ Hard Club, 2016/07/07

This gallery contains 63 photos.

MORE THAN A THOUSAND Farewell Tour @ Hard Club, 2016/06/11

This is it, the end is here. I’d been more than eager for this show, but when the time finally came, I was overcome with a deep sadness entwined with all the thrill. We often use that old cliche “all … Continue reading

MORE THAN A THOUSAND @ Canecas Bar, 2016/06/10

SHAPE @ 1st anniversary BBBlast, 2016/06/04

Took a few lousy pics of SHAPE in 2013 (see here) and I wish I’d done a better job now too… Back then they had only the EP “Shape 2011” out and were releasing the second “Desistir É Impossível” (giving up … Continue reading

THE IDYLL’S END @ 1st anniversary BBBlast, 2016/06/04

I may be wrong, but I believe that THE IDYLL’S END was the band that suffered the most with the early blackout at the venue, having to cut their setlist real short – at least I had the feeling that they … Continue reading
