ILEGAL – live in Liege, Belgium – 9/11/12

Last year on 9/11 I took the train to Liege, Belgium, the closest place ILEGAL were playing on their seven week tour across Europe. Forming in Montreal, Canada, all the members of this raw punk / hardcore band were “illegal immigrants” except for the bassist. Locio, the singer, is from Mexico. Johnne, the drummer is from Finland. Simon, the guitarist is from England/USA, leaving the bassist, Jason, as the only legal Canadian resident. I’ve tried twice to do an interview with Ilegal, the first time the tape player was broken and the second time we went out drinking after the show and the interview never happened…

Chez Claude DIY – Toulouse, France

Our story is, I think, a great classic! Everything began two years ago, in lack of any curves in our city we decided to take our fate in our own hands and build our own spot! For that it was necessary for us to find a good place, a few kilometers later, an old caterpillar factory in the outskirts of the city would make for a good chill spot. We had the place we would start the “Chez Claude” adventure.
