Burned Out Punks

Last night I met up with my friend Chris, whom I studied Swedish with and his girlfriend Amanda (who is from Stockholm) and we had a few beers, and then went to see some Burned Out Punks. It was my first social outing since moving to Stockholm, and it was a good night out.

This week is the Stockhokm Kulturfestival, and there are lots of free acts to see, and things to do in Stockholm.

Samuel and I will be checking out Cirkor Cirkor on Friday night who are meant to be a cooler Cirque du Soleil on a big outdoor stage in front of the Opera House. He can sit on my shoulders, and hopefully he will like it, and if he doesn't we can go home, it is free after all...

Anyway, so onto last night... After a few beers, we took the tube to T-Centrallen, and in the square there, a group of performers called Burned Out Punks were putting on a show. My enjoyment of the show was probably helped by the beers we had drunk, but there was lots of fire, motorbikes and a karaoke version of Bryan Adams' Everything I Do, which was actually funny, so what not to like? I wouldn't recommend ever spending a great deal of money to see them, but if you were at a festival and they were on, they could be worth a look.
