The Sonic Roots from Helsinki with frontman Henry (Nene) Lee Roots
& The Pleasures from Hamburg build a wild couple to play two gigs
together in the S.O.M.A in Hannover and at the legendary WILD at HEART
in Berlin.
Sonic Roots play Rock'n' Roll with sexappeal and the Pleasures are definitly one of the strangest Glam Rock bands ever.
The S.O.M.A. in Hannover was filled with about 50 people and the audience was very positive about the finns.
Henry Lee Roots as a very charismatic person conquered the girls heats
within a few seconds and after the gig he was sourrounded by females
all the time.
When The Pleasures entered the stage the comes up big noise from the
fans that came from all over germany to see the guys in tights and make
up. The played with their new drummer General Razz Pleasure and it was
a great experience to watch these guys. The Lord played a new song, a
ballad calles October 29 and after the first refrain all the fans sang
along.
After the gig, the bands took some time to talk to all the fans and
peple at the venue and then they started off to Berlin as we did after
playing Taxi for the sonic roots and getting catched by police with
five persons, lots of Bags and a guitar in a Fiat Cinquecento ;)
We had planned an intrview wih Sonic Roots at Wild at Heart around
18.00 and just at time Henry, Stacey and Björn answered a lot of
questions that you can read now in the interview section of
northern-rockmusic.com.
Then the doors were opened and the venue was filled to the top ith fans
when the Sonic Roots started playing. They just had some technical
problems what means the cable of Henrys mic fell off from time to time
but well, you can also sing with two mics all the time, then you're
secured!
The heat at Wild at Heart rised over more than 50 degrees and not just the band was sweaty after finishing the gig.
Berlin is a Home-match for the Pleasures, They have so many fans in the
capital that they could be also a band from Berlin, not from Hamburg.
The audience rocked the house and The Pleasures delighted us with some
acrobatic insertions.
After this gig there was a big After Show Party in the Wild at Heart as
usually and we were talking and drinking all together till dawn
comes up and we decided to drive home to get a little sleep.
