Monto Water Rats is pretty packed tonight. There are four bands on the bill, but I only watched the last two. First out is Maia Hirasawa who started out as (and still is, I think) a member of Hello Saferide's touring band, but who has now started conquering the Swedish airwaves by herself with her sunshine pop. It's melodic and pleasant. Hello Saferide are equally melodic, but somewhat less pleasant. Annika Norlin (aka Hello Saferide) is not feeling very well, and she tells us that she's kept quiet all day just so she can sing for us. God bless her! She has also been drinking olive oil throughout the day, and even does so onstage (this is the cause of the the unpleasantness). Sometimes the rock'n'roll life can be truly odd, and tough. I'd rather bite the head of a bat than drink olive oil. Oily drinks or vocal problems doesn't stop Annika from putting on a great show though, and she's got the audience transfixed from the start. As an encore she plays "The quiz" which I haven't heard live before - it was a thoroughly enjoyable first experience. Expect to hear more from Hello Saferide and Maia Hirasawa in the future, they're both charming and write very infectious songs.
