siouxsie and the banshees

Grab a cuppa and a biscuit 'cos this is a long one.

Roger is in Rotterdam for the very first Pandora's Music Box music festival at the super smart De Doelen venue. 

Siouxsie and The Banshees headline but play first, which means poor, delicate Rog has to wait six hours before The Box take to the stage in the middle of the night. 

Some tales here from a very long, but very memorable night.

With thanks to Simon Elliott-Kemp for the intro and outro music and to Rionagh for the artwork.

Kat speaks on being able to express oneself through makeup, female entrepreneurship, letting the work speak for itself, her musical endeavors, being 15 years sober, motherhood, her upcoming children's book, and how to make it in gruelling industries.

Au programme cette semaine, un tour de l’actu musicale mais aussi une chasse aux fées et aux sorciers. Il y a des artistes qui ont ce pouvoir enchanteur de nous transporter, de nous ensorceler et leur élixir est plus qu’essentiel en cette période.

Dans la playlist, Kate Bush, mais aussi Siouxsie And The Banshees, Bat For Lashes, Christine And The Queens, une interview coup de cœur de la franco américaine Coco Bans, sans oublier quelques loups et sorciers comme les bretons de We Wolf ou ce grand diable de Screamin' Jay Hawkins.
