Mojo moment

For nogle år siden, så denne bloggerkugle, en fin eftermiddagskoncert med den canadiske rootstrio The Be Good Tanyas på Roskilde Festival. Undervejs fortalte pigerne om en oplevelse, de havde haft aftenen før, da de havde været forbi Mojo Club i det indre København. Det besøg forfølger stadig The Be Good Tanyas. I et interview med magasinet The Word fra august 2007, fortalte gruppen, at visitten havde afledt en intern talemåde.

“Two years ago in Copenhagen we went to a jam/open mic thing at this place called the Mojo Club. We asked if we could play a song and they where so rude to us! The kingpin guy wanted us to beg to play: like, “If you really want you can.” We tought we where going to blow them out of the water: we’re professionals, we’ll show them! But some kind of nervous horror overtook us. We sounded like a bad high-school band. It was out of key and I felt like I was 12 again. We left in total shame. If we ever have a bad time on stage we still call it a “Mojo moment”.
