Hello comrades who follow
Fatherland blog.
Now I want tell you about a gig
named “Toscana Oi! Fest” which took place in Lucca/Italy on 02 June 2012. Two
bands have played for this gig: LINEA OSTILE and THE WRONGDOERS because the
other bands which were supposed to play couldn’t come because of some problems.
Linea Ostile it’s a new band from
North of Italy and has some members of Stato Asociale, The Wrongdoers it’s an
Oi! Skinhead Band from Helsinki/Finland, and have some members from Mistreat.
This was the first time that they played in Italy and I was curious to
meet and see them playing.
So, Tuscany is
the region where I’m living and for me it was easy go to the gig because my
hometown Pisa is
close to Lucca.
I and a friend of mine started
from our city at middle afternoon, when the sun was still high in the sky and
weather was hot. We arrived in Lucca at
19:00 o clock and we went to the gig’s pub where we started to drink some beers
with our local friend. I met also my friend from Firenze, Prato and Pistoia that came after me, it was nice to meet
comrades from Tuscany all
together in one time…
I was looking forward to see
Wrongdoers performance!!! After around a hour they arrived at the pub and I
came to them to say “welcome”. I met for first Santtu (the guitarist) and we
talked about their trip from Finland , later I knew Atte (the
drummer) and the rest of the band.
At 10:00 PM the gig
have started with Linea Ostile. Sincerely while they were playing I was outside
the pub and I can’t tell how many songs they did, but fortunately I
was close to door and I could hear some cover songs like “Stato di Polizia” of
Peggior Amico and one milestone and most famous Italian song, “Rivolta” by
Plastic Surgery. They have played their own songs also, and I can say
that they have a great sound. I hope they will produce a demo CD in the future!
Finally after Linea Ostile came
the expected moment of Wrongdoers, all people were looking forward to see them
I was also very curious to see the Finnish band.
The band played all songs from
his album “Helsinki ”
like “Fighting for your life”, “My home” and the best song “Oi! For Finland ”, so the last refrain of this song
dedicated to Italy when
the singer singing “Oi! For Italia!” was nice for me hear this and I think all
people who hear this were happy like me. So Wrongdoers sounds like true
skinheads Oi! music and I can say that is fucking nice!!! I hope to see again
one of their gigs in Italy .
The gig closed with Wrongdoers
but the night was still young and I and my friends continued to drink rivers of
beer eh eh! During drinking time I talked with Atte and Santtu and I found that
they are a pleasant people and I spent good time with them.
In the end I came back to my home
at 5:00 AM and I slept for recover my strength whiles me thinking about the
gig….
The next day I had my belly full
of beer but at the evening I was back to the pub to meet again my comrades and
the Wrongdoers guys. I drank some beers with them and I remember Atte with
Piaggio’s t-shirt, which was funny because he is a fan of the famous Italian
scooter: Vespa. I had big eyes when I saw this and I’m
glad see comrades that have your same passion and dress with t-shirt from your
city! So, we talked to Renne (he also like and have Vespa) about their scooters
but the time passes and the time to say goodbye is near…
I and my friends brought Finnish
to their hostel and we gave them our greetings and wishes for a save journey
back home.
These days were very nice and
I’ll keep them forever in my heart.
I want to give my greetings to my
friends from Lucca for
the good gig, thanks also to Linea Ostile and Wrongdoers, KIPPIS!!! See you in Finland .
