Support: The Pleasures; Venue: The Underground Cologne(Germany)
\nBy: Nina Mende<\/a><\/em><\/small><\/p>\n

\u00a0 I love family reunions, especially ones like the one on Saturday in Cologne.
\n\u00a0 The Pleasures and Big Boy were playing at the Underground in Cologne. Underground
\n\u00a0 is a little club right next to a tattoo studio, with a beer garden outdoors.
\n\u00a0 A really nice place, I like it there.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

As I arrived there, I already saw some people I haven\u2019t seen in quite a while and don\u2019t see that often either. So I was all happy, way before\u00a0the concert began. But before I drift off too far from the actual review, let\u00a0me introduce you to the two bands tonight, beginning with my favourite Glam-rock bands from Hamburg\/Germany: The Pleasures<\/p>\n

Founded in 2004 by Dancette (vocals \/ synths) and Lord Vivian\u00a0(vocals\/guitar),\u00a0the Hamburg-based five-piece created an explosion of glitz and glamour from\u00a0the very beginning. The Pleasures are a passionate, hard-working band, producing\u00a0and engineering their own recorded material. Their first release came in June\u00a02005; a five track EP entitled \u2018Cuming Out\u2019. Succeeded a year later\u00a0by the 16 track debut album \u2018Greatest Hits\u2019, which sold out of its\u00a0first few thousand copies within just six months.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 I personally am always amazed by their style and make-up which is very flashy\u00a0and funky like I have never seen before, and I have seen a lot already. Another\u00a0thing that really amazes me about them is the power and passion they put in\u00a0 every show.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

\u00a0 And so was their show: Amazing. Not only their outfits and make-up were perfect,
\n\u00a0 but also the show. They did everything to animate you to dance and sing along,
\n\u00a0 clap your hands and shout. Forget the daily life and just live the moment, enjoy
\n\u00a0 the Pleasures. Their gig is not only a performance but a show with special effects:
\n\u00a0 some fireworks coming out of Dancette\u2019s microphone stand and a little confetti
\n\u00a0 canon. They all moved around on stage very agile so that you really had to be
\n\u00a0 very quick to keep track of them.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Although the Underground was not that full, it still felt like it. They played
\n\u00a0 for about an hour, but it felt much shorter. And here is what they played:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Parade\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Children of the Revolution\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Some like it rock\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Please don\u2019t let the music \u2026\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Ballroom Blitz\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Gloryhole\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Skullhammer\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Honeymoon in Venice<\/p>\n


\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
\nThe other band playing tonight was: Big Boy\u00a0Well, what can I tell you about Big Boy what I haven\u2019t told you already
\nin the CD review of \u201cHail the Big Boy\u201d? The band is: Happy (drums),
\nAK (bass), Big Boy himself (vocals and stage destruction) and The Lord (guitar).
\nThese four guys from Germany rock big time.\u00a0It was a very powerful and energetic performance and you had to be very quick\u00a0to keep track of Big Boy. He reminded me a lot of Anzi Destruction (singer of Stereojunks) because of his destructive behaviour on stage, so think twice before\u00a0you go up front, it might not only rain vodka, water and sweat but also bottles,\u00a0microphone stands or even something else… They played almost all songs from\u00a0their album, but also some new non-album tracks. The Underground rocked and\u00a0hailed more than ever, screaming and dancing along. For the encore \u201cHail\u00a0the Big Boy\u201d Dorian Deveraux (singer of Jesus on Exstasy, dressed in all white) and the Pleasures came up on stage to sing along and join the performance.\u00a0A gorgeous closing that makes me look forward to Wednesday so much more\u2026\u00a0 only that the Pleasures won\u2019t be there, but Limbogott.The songs Big Boy played were:
\n\u00a0 La L\u00e9gion (the French intro)\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Gestasi Baby\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Terror Era\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Get over it\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Fake it\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Tricky\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Sin-Sational\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Fuckin\u2019 jerk\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Just like we\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Catastrophe\ufffd
\n\u00a0 One good reason\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Pony-girl\ufffd
\n\u00a0 My own rules\ufffd
\n\u00a0 Hail the Big Boy
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
