One summer weekend before May
April 27th, 2008
We discovered a funky jazz club on friday evening. After visiting a private soirée at deluxe we stopped in the old Patershol for a drink. Rococo was not yet open so we went to Aba Jour instead. Leen was there with a friend (Anja) and we were invited to take seats at their gereserveerd table. There i sat with three west-vlamingen. S had a duvel and i a glass of red wine. The two of us though about having a jenever in ‘t Dreupelkot before going home but when we were returning back to our car we happened to peek into an underground world of White Cat and it looked so inviting that we decided to step in and check it out. It turned out to be an excellent choice. Great music both live and by dj. Live was a funky hammond sound accompanied with drums, a trombone and a piano. Absinth on the menu caused that after few hours we had no other choice than to pay for tomorrow’s parking and walk home.
The next day we returned to Patershol and bought some comics in Popville. I bought plots #2 and #3 and S bought a set of 6 albums from Fritz Van den Heuvel and a second hand cd of AC/DC*. Then we had a late lunch in Simon Says : croques & solid cakes. We skipped all the other plans we had for that afternoon and drove blue kango home after i had bought a gift for Iitu in the monsters with an attitude. Somewhere in between S made a choice and returned home with a knife from Laguiole.
Saïd came to pick us up with a red deluxe bus and we listened to Powerage* all the way to Menen and back. We saw the non stop show “de boane noar rissel” bij de figuranten.
