CONCERT REVIEW Hokie joint… weet you still, one of the revelations of 2008 on our festival meadows and a discovery by the good nose of Hans Broere stood on Thursday evening 11 March in the club of the MOD in Hasselt but and not at `real estate cy' such as yoyo thought firstly at the men of Move2blues. Without doubt the club would run vanavond full because the meesten savages Hokie experience joint sometimes in a club instead of on a festival podium. Hokie joint came stand here on the mainland in the `spotlights' by bringing out their debut album `The Way It Goes… Sometimes' what was immediately a shot in the rose. Blues? And if so, which scope? , you can yoyo Burgess (vocal), scream Fisk (guitars& vocal), Giles King (harmonica), Fergie Fulton (bass) and them Cutmore (drums& percussion) immediately in a box do not will place because it is a type deep blues with a pinch mysterious mojo and the interaction of front man yoyo is of it certainly an example. One things are certainly, after shutting down nevertheless very the popular Imperial Crowns van Jimmy Wood and JJ Holiday have to the followers of this very explosive sound new at to look out. Around the bell from 21.00 come yoyo and the zijnen on the podium with vooraan the voodoo drummer in the companionship them Cutmore and on the programme stands 2 well-filled sets. For those those them to the work have not yet seen can we put that he, however, what gone has of for the, the drummer of Chilly Willy and pine Huibbe what once has gladly both on the photograph and which Chilly Willy does not know direction schlagerfestival must start surf. Mr. Burgess profiles himself vanavond as volleerd `voodoopriest' both with regard to irradiation as well as with a real voodoo cap with resum black included cat bones. More open of the evening is the number `Apologise' and immediately is everyone. The disadvantage of a success is that you debut album is sold off already rapidly and this also this way for `Hokie Joint' their very last copies want which wear vanavond this way the studio to be able draw for making a new album and that album my inziens go still more rapidly sold off touch because vanavond they bring already nice what numbers which will hear be on that disc such as `Force or Habbit. Also `Jackie Boy' will stand and this is a straight hit because this cheerful number has been transvased with New Orleans voodoosausje and puts in the field of tempo rotations perfectly in each other. A number we hope which certainly that will come stand `have been played ball Dog Blues' a number that middle in the song change in whipping Bo Diddley beat and zowat the entire club wrap up are. Both set 1 and set 2 meeting new numbers but first album also their is taken into consideration exhaustively with among other things the titeltrack and if clincher Mrs Jones whereupon if repeater follows still `Chain Me'. Class concert with class barge has been possible admire muziekanten and gladly that I Hokie joint in club. Nogvanda! this are voodoo working….
