dEUS on tour Official Podcast

I’m pretty sure the great city of Baile Átha Cliath must mean something to you. The spirit of Sir Joyce still spinning around. The black beauty aka Guinness dropping gently down your sweet and tender soul. The legendary Irish kindness.
And weather.
And Bars.

The Tripod is a great venue. And I’ve done it a few times. But this time I wasn’t too happy. Don’t know why exactly. Not enough beauty in my mix. Poetry, even, maybe. I thought it was too…much, simply. But you, lovely folks, didn’t seem to care (or notice) and gave us a hell of a great time.
It’s still something to see smiling faces after a gig.
It adds value to your job. And art form.

London, on the other end, is…London.
Massive and delicate, huge and simple, cute and ugly, smart and dirty, cool and stressful, weird … and so predictable at the same time.
Just like the venue we played. The Koko. How demented were our grand fathers to imagine such places…and actually physically build them. Scary architecture. Stairs that never lead you to where you wanna go, countless rooms and rumors are still spitting off the walls. You never know who did what in venues like this…in this city.

Countless pictures of rock stars (do they truly exist, actually ?) are re-dressing the lovely green room. You have a good old PacMan there, if you’re bored. Or a Kicker. Or a huge screen with a play station hooked up for the Nintendo generation. And, eventually, a stage in the middle of the place.
I dare to say that dEUS took it…by storm. I think it was their best London performance in a while. And I hope you will agree.
And, ho, what a pleasure to meet familiar faces after a gig. Even though we had to jump on the bus right after the gig, those little chats and moments are…priceless.
So, will dEUS have their picture on the walls ? I don’t know, and I honestly don’t care, because I don’t believe in the music hypes and venerations… but, between us, they deserve it. Damn right.

Please have a Guinness, or a cup of tea, or a sandwich, or a fag…take your seat away from the day light, throw the cats away for a few minutes, forget about your bills, open your laptops…relax…and enjoy dEUS pod 13.

Thanks again UK, it was needed after the medium shitty summer we had on your island.
Still a great country if you ask me. Both of them.
Sherlock ?
Vp.
