The best things in life are free...

or cost 100 kroner!

March 10th, Scandinavian Congress Center, Århus, 19:00/7 pm
FREE Mew concert sponsored by Jyske Bank for account holders, and non-account holders (that bank must have enough money) in between the age of 18 and 24. This will be my second time seeing this band live, after my first glimpse from behind approximately 2000 people one late night at Roskilde Festival last year.

February 24th, Musikcafeen, Århus, 21:00/ 9pm
Double concert with 2 of Denmark's most promising new bands: The Alpine and Kiona. My enthusiasm regarding The Alpine just won't seem to decrease. This band deserves more hype than the word "hype" has ever generated before. Their album lands on 27th of February, alongside the long waited debut of another respectable Danish newcomer Veto (www.vetonet.dk), the Danish version of The Killers: Campsite, and We Are Scientists .

The second band, I have only heard one song by, all promising for the live aspect of it and is likely to fall in the taste of poprockers everywhere. Like the Alpine the band consists of 4 guys and a gal, but here the female singer is the front figure. Here's a link to their song "slowmotion": http://www.kiona.dk/audio/slowmotion.mp3
