<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nLet\u2019s start at the beginning, I was introduced to M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce by age 8 (mum would say bad parenting, dad would say FUCK YEAH!). For the last 17 years, cr\u00fce have taken me through the highs and lows of my teenage years and young adulthood, seeing them in such a small venue was a dream come true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Underworld is known for its intimate setting and raw energy, and was the perfect venue to host this special performance by D\u00d6GS OF WAR. Despite the passage of time (and a lot of doubters), these aging rockers proved once again that their fire still burns bright, as they unleashed a small yet mighty gig that will undoubtedly be etched into my memory and of all those fortunate enough to be in attendance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the dim lights and the distinct scent of pints, hairspray and excitement permeating the air, the atmosphere was reminiscent of the gritty rock clubs of the past, creating an electric ambiance that set the stage for something incredible. I\u2019ve often said I grew up in the wrong generation, and after attendance of this gig I\u2019m envious of all the old rockers out there (like my dad) that got to experience this insane atmosphere at almost every gig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kicking off the night with an explosive opener, the band set the tone with \u201cWild Side\u201d. D\u00d6GS OF WAR continued to deliver hit after hit. Songs like \u201cDr. Feelgood\u201d, \u201cGirls Girls Girls\u201d and \u201cShout at the Devil\u201d kept the energy high. In total, the band played 11 songs, including some of my all-time favourites, ‘too fast for Love’ and ‘Smokin\u2019 in the Boys Room’. What didn\u2019t I expect at this gig? A cover of the Beastie Boys ‘Fight For Your Right’ and Ramones ‘Blitzkrieg Bop’. Every song resonated with the crowd, within my view not one person stood still. The crowd passionately sang along and gave thunderous applause at every opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n
