Tom Freund (6/10)
Start 21:00 / End 21:40
This guy couldn’t be from anywhere else than L.A.: close your eyes and let yourself go straight to Venice Beach. You can picture yourself on the beach, sitting around a bonfire, having some beers with a few good friends. While listening to his catchy music, of course. Nice warm up to Angus Stone.
Angus Stone (8/10)
Start 22:00 / End 23:25
When a stoned Angus Stone enters the stage, it takes a while to recognize him since the members of the band look really like him. There’s a good vibe in the air, Astra is crowded of a nice young public: the Aussie boy opens his concert with Broken Brights, just to make clear what’s the tour about. From that moment onwards, it is a continuous crescendo and I just let myself be rocked by Angus’ music, which is always very pleasant and rousing. Angus also finds the time for a tribute to Julia, playing a couple of less known songs from their repertoire. At the end, I have to say: nice gig indeed, Angus!
