Friday has established itself as a staple for Psychobilly and Rockabilly enthusiasts at the Berlin Rock'n'Roll club Wild at Heart in Kreuzberg. Many great bands have already turned the night into day in this club. On this day, March 27, 2009, two special bands were announced again. With FRANTIC FLINTSTONES, a band that has been around for a long time and rightly enjoys cult status in the scene, was on the bill. Opening for them were AS DIABATZ from Brazil. The band recently released their first album and, like THEE MERRY WIDOWS from the USA, consists entirely of women.
Arriving at Wild at Heart around 10:00 PM, it was first necessary to queue at the box office. Outside the club, some people braved the cool temperatures, while it was already quite crowded inside. More and more people arrived by the minute, so that by 10:45 PM, when the three Brazilian women took the stage, it was already very full and quite warm. The band delivered their first songs somewhat calmly. Gradually, the three found their drive. The audience watched AS DIABATZ attentively but calmly. The three girls were also a sight to behold. A very sexy guitarist with a distinctive, dominant voice was accompanied by a Psychobilly double bassist who not only played well but also looked good. They were completed by a cool drummer who, as is common in Rockabilly, swung her sticks while standing. The three were not just a treat for the eyes but also for the ears. AS DIABATZ presented classic Rockabilly with a good dose of pressure and individuality. The songs were very well received, and the good half hour in which the girls showcased themselves flew by.
During the changeover, the crowd moved outside in front of the stage to catch some fresh air, while more people continued to stream into the club. This made it quite cramped, especially at the bar.
After enjoying the fresh Berlin night air, it was back inside. This time it became very tight in front of the stage, as most visitors wanted to see FRANTIC FLINTSTONES up close.
They didn't keep the audience waiting long and started their set with a few fast Psychobilly numbers. The excitement in the hot club grew from song to song.
People danced and cheered. It was truly a fantastic, exuberant party. In the second part of their set, the band showed why they are so loved in the scene. The fast numbers were replaced by slow, sometimes almost bluesy pieces. The band particularly conveyed a calm, dreamy atmosphere with the slow songs, which, accompanied by the violin, exuded elements of country and hillbilly. It was fascinating how a band with such a wide musical range could captivate the audience present. The applause was correspondingly loud after each song, and when the band said goodbye, loud calls for more songs were heard.
The band gladly obliged, and so there were two encores before they left the stage and handed the audience over to the DJ. He did a decent job at least in the first hour. After that, the dance floor gradually emptied, and people headed to the bar to finish off a drink or two. The night at Wild at Heart, as often on weekends, was still very long.
