This time, I took a road trip to the hills of West Virginia, to the birthplace of Don Knotts, Morgantown, where I witnessed the mighty Messer Chups in action. They are a Russian outfit who play a wicked mix of surf, horror, and rockabilly, and they started out in Hamburg, Germany, in 1998 - the same city where the Beatles learned their craft. This was my second time seeing them, and they blew me away with a more raw, concise, and intense show, influenced by the atmosphere of the venue, “123 Pleasant Street“, a classic rock club with all the bells and whistles. The show was warmed up by two vibrant local bands, who had their own loyal following. I guess that's why the Messer Chups had to do their soundcheck on stage, right before they kicked off their set, which you can see here. They didn't have any of their usual visual projections, like clips from old horror movies, but they didn't need them, because they had the crowd in the palm of their hand, and they even got them to pogo along to some of their tunes. The Messer Chups did not let me down, they gave me a pure shot of rock and roll, although I would have loved to hear an encore. I hope you dig this as much as I did, and don't forget to subscribe to this channel. #surfmusic #surfmusicians #rockabilly #rockabillymusic #rockabillyguitar #pulpfiction #loungemusic #loungemusicchillout #garageband #garagemusiclovers #kraftwerk #pinkpanther #franksinatra #franksinatracover
