Скачать или смотреть Mike Watt + The Black Gang live @ Nighttown Tejatro Popular in Rotterdam NL 17/MAR/1998 (full show)

Here's the first show of the Hola Marinaro tour! Some changes compared to the US shows. For starters that's Bob Lee behind the drum kit and not Stephen Hodges, and though Steve Reed is still present the samples have been dropped here. Took quite a bit of research to get to the bottom of this venue. It was formerly an independent café/theatre combo, the drinking/dining part of the establishment called Café Popular and the theatre room (and old remodeled cinema) called Tejatro Popular. It was located right next door to a larger entertainment venue called Nighttown, which ended up buying the place shortly before this show took place and rebranded it to the Nighttown Café, while the theatre room became the Popular stage of the Nighttown entertainment complex. Here's a fun fact: in 2006 the broader Nighttown complex changed its name for the final time to... Watt! Hey who was it again that said coincidence is either hit or miss?
