Regenesis went down at Club Nuovo on the 8th of August, which featured Powercut Circus, Thriloka and the highlight HollowPoint Halo. Our day started with the usual setting up, sound checks, lights testing and our favorite, the visuals, which up to the point of the starting time was causing shit loads of issues, making me and my co-visual buddy to sweat beans until eventually we got it working. Phew!!
So we were ready to rock. The crowd was pouring in, and the first performance by Powercut Circus kicked it off ending with their now popular "Arrack Attack". Thriloka stepped in next to mesmerize the crowd with smooth funky drum beats and electric guitar riffs. The solo bits of the group really got the crowd clapping and enjoying the music. After that it was down to the highlight of the evening, HollowPoint Halo.
We played 10 songs, with 3 of our originals "Distant Sun", "Lost Vegas Star" and "Freedom", and the rest being covers from bands like TOOL and Nine Inch Nails. From our God Console me and my buddy had the best view. We went crazy on the visuals being projected on to the makeshift cloth screen and just had a freaking blast!
The crowd went nuts for songs like "Vicarious" and "The Pot", songs which I'd say HPH is attributed to bringing to the local rock audience. The night went on and we wrapped up around 12 I think. Tired and exhilarated we packed up and headed back to studio feeling all giddy with the fact that we had done it, and done it really fucking brilliantly!!
The next step was to clean up and go get some food, although finding food at 3am was not as easy as we'd thought. So lots of roaming around later we ended up at Hijra for roast chicken kottu before visiting R&B for a drink. It was shit cos it was full of old people and the music was really really old.. blurgh!! So we ran out of there after a single beer and then decided we needed to get high SOMEWHERE, so we headed to Sugar. FINALLY some visual appeal and alcohol!!
So a couple of vodka redbulls later and a round of tequila we were forced to leave as the club was closing... Got home around 4.30am and dropped dead.
Twas a great night of music, jamming, and high levels of excitement. Thanks to all who made it to support and enjoy Regenesis...
