Nofx live in South Africa

Last night I had the chance to go and watch Nofx play live at the Wavehouse in Durban, South Africa. They are doing some sort of tour around the world taking video footage of some strange and weird places and for somehow, South Africa got caught up in it?

Lets just say it was awesome and I really awesome. They were opened up by Fuzigish at about 20H30 and then Nofx started at about ten finishing off at about 23H30. They played in Capetown on Friday night and will be going through to Joburg on to play on Monday and Tuesday night. Tickets have already sold out for the monday night!

There lineup of songs included ," Franco Un-American", "Linoleum", "Something Stickin' in my eye", "Leaving Jesusland" and of course "Leave it alone" among many others.

The mosh pit started the moment that first chord was struck and it was utter chaos! I thought it would die down but it didnt. I was in and out because it became fucking hard to breath. The whole thing was in a marquee that could not have been higher than two people. They played on the skate ramp so all the dust got kicked up and choked the place.

I must say the guys were pretty funny on stage and gave quite a few laughs.

The evening was cut short because the PA Blew or something. So as we all screaming out "Dont Call me white", the sound got cut and they had to stop. It took a while for it to sink in that they were finished and people slowly started leaving.

I just hope Nofx take this experience of playing in south africa as a good one and open the doors more bands to come through. I am still hoping to see bands like Antiflag, Pennywise and Bad Religion. Will just have to see I guess!

Thanks Nofx, fucking awesome!
