Die Antwoord @ Regency 2/22/12
Remember Die Antwoord from the martial world thread? <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=36&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=390">viewtopic.php?f=2&t=36&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=390</a><!-- l -->
It was a young, clean and fresh crowd. A lot of people let their freak flags fly - a lot of costuming including a lot of gold spandex (Die Antwoord evil boy style methinks), some vampires, a big annoying purple bunny guy, a pegasus/unicorn dude (pegacorn?), a few ninjas and a guy in a cheap Tiger Claw karate gi that he sharpied with Antwoord logos. There were a lot of great tattoos. It was a very visual crowd - fun to interact with.
Vin Sol opened, which was just two lame guys and a laptop. They sucked. they might be good fully X-ed out with a crowd of writhing dancers who were also fully X-ed out, but then again, pretty much anything is good in that situation. RM got a lot of donations for earplugs and they weren't very loud, just sucky.
Die Antwoord had the crowd eating out of the palms of their hands. The DJ was like Humungus in the Road Warrior, who opened with a wicked mix with the lyrics "gonna fuck you in the ass!" For a while, dm thought he was just there to flex his biceps to the beat, but he did deliver in the end. Ninja seems like a caricature white trash South Afrikaaner - or zef as he calls it. He's can spit lyrics well, and is especially good at shouting the word 'fuck' and opened with an old skool back flip stage dive. Yolandi Visser is this tiny screeching elf - she's rather grating actually and should stick to singing over rapping. Die Antwoord wasn't as impressing as dm hoped. But they did rock their finale, which was Enter the Ninja, of course, enough so that dm would check them out again via RM if it met with his schedule.
