May 14th, update…
Here we go!
Best curry wurst hut of the “east”, saved by public enthusiasm during post war communist regime. It’s Harrys’ favourite place to eat.
We decorated this jeans jacket for Arnaud, cose he got his favourite one stolen, well actually it got given away to a punk by mistake, at the Soirée de la mort back in october (see below). He was really upset, so we found this Levi’s jacket in a charity shop and drew loads of stuff on it.
Atka, Isa, Balladi, Harry, Nurse, Charlotte (see her dracula below)…all contributed to getting it just as he would like it, a mix between heavy metal, experimental and romance….
Odessa played live at Golden Gate, a small club, located in the pillar of a bridge. Really cosy.
The act is a a Dj mix with mostly Cologne style minimal techno and some home-made tracks with live singing on top.
Their 3 track record is freshly released on Doxa.

The club was full of friends, with a good Brussels delegation. The sound was very close, with lots of bass. We don’t often get that in Brussels, so it was really enjoyable.
Next day, back at Arnauds’ flat, a huge hang-over bkfast!
Highlights: record buying, Berliner, lots of coffee, postcard drawing, late nights and mornings, walking, cycling, chatting, Atka’s drawing exhibition, fallafel döners…Arnaud, Charlotte & B.M.
