Comment
Notes: Already Brotherhood’s third performance at Zosch, a cosy, early 90s alternative Cavern-club like venue in Berlin Mitte. This time around Brotherhood is being supported by a cool blues rock band from Canada, The Perpetrators. A crowd of 75 gathers for the show filling up the Zosch solidely but not to capacity, there is still a lot space left in the back. While relatively decent in numbers the crowd generally leaves something to desire regarding party and freaking out: they used to dance harder and more engagedly in previous shows and there are some talkers in the audience but of course the majority of the crowd seemingly digs the show. The brother’s performance tonight is great if a bit mixed. Without a setlist they play a cool selection of their active repertoire. Great garage sound! There are some moments of true brilliance, like really supertight renditions of the fast numbers (“Old tattoo†through “Cracker†in particular, plus “Mimi’s tune†& “Suck itâ€) or a psychedelic “Mind garageâ€. But there are also some unexcusable moments when they fuck up majorly, e.g. the transition to the swing part in “Mind garage†or the solo in “Invsible peopleâ€. During “Love†five kids come up and establish an on-stage dance floor for the entire song, which makes the rest of the people cheer loudly. After “Mind machine†something breaks which forces the band to briefly jam upon the porno jam, which Kiryk announces as “kurze Werbepauseâ€. He then proceeds to rap over the jam: “Hey, im dritten Stock in unserer Fleischabteilung: Mettwurst für 3,95. Beachten sie auch unsere Extraangebote im dritten Stock: [?] nur 91,65 EUR. Und weiter geht’s!“. After „Mimi’s tune“ Kiryk requests that “Jeder zieht jetzt ein Teil aus!“. The encore brings two surprises: First up is a high-speed version of “No mercy†that rocks incredibly, the fastest version of the tune they have ever played! Then the band debuts a new version of “Little red rooster†which features the same basic track as the Willie Dixon number but has new vocals and lyrics which they wrote themselves. This new vocal arrangement gives the tune a totally different character and while it misses the primitive energy of the orginal it makes for an interesting new twist in the band’s set.
