Untrust Us; Crystal Castles live in Hamburg

Last night Nina and I suited up and went to see Crystal Castles at "Übel & Gefährlich"(evil and dangerous), a club in Hamburg. After a successful trip out, a few beers, and SO much bright neon makeup, we were ready to party.

suited up in neon rainbow and hot hot pink

a fair going on nearby

you see what we mean

The venue was MASSIVE, and we passed it the first time thinking it was a prison! Which would sound silly, except that it was dark and the orangy light made it ominous. However, we found our way back, and soon enough were inside and waiting for the first band to go on.







Of course THEN they came on stage and it was amazing. The synth shook the floor, the bass vibrated through your teeth, and Alice Glass ripped through eardrums. It. Was. Orgasmic.

Another thing entirely can be said for the lights; a mix of blinding and every epileptic's nightmare, the lights added to the dizzying effect...those who appeared drunk weren't necessarily enjoying the effects of alcohol.

 Alice Glass...watching her preform was something else. Writhing around and pouring her heart out...it was breathtaking.

After the concert, we waiting in the train station for our 4 AM connection back to Lüneburg. After some McDonalds and napping on our platform, we eventually made it home. Great success.
