Friday night and to another disco bar, this one
near the city of Varazdin, where we have some friends that have supported
our band for the last few years. It was crazy to finally meet them and
they did a great job in speading the news around that two half drunk Croatian-Americans
and a sober Czech-American were coming from California with rented amps
and van from Zagreb to rock Croatia. instead of the usual hour time slot
we were given, we had unlimited time tonight thanks to our bros from Varazdin.
So we played for nearly an hour and a half, playing almost all our songs.
Played "PW'd" for the first time, and damn that little song sounds good
live. Then did a couple of Croatian Rock covers. We did Phidomod Pop's
"Frida" again, this time under a warm buzz and not a drunken stuper. This
time John got the crowd into a minute sing-a-long towards the end of the
song (not that they weren't singing before the whole time). Then after
"Superslacker", which is usually our closer, we pulled out a special little
Croatian cover of Prljavo Kazaliste's "Ruza Hrvatska". The crowd sang every
word to that song like it was a prayer, many holding the two finger sign
in the air and others with arms around each other. Unbelieveable! It was
sureal and a very moving religous like experience. To play that song in
front of a Croatian crowd in Croatia was just simply emotional. Hard to
really explain.
