Sick Thoughts and The Protos Live at Roodkapje Rotterdam

Oh mama! With the flu-season in full swing throughout the country, we deemed it no more than logical to provide ya’ll with another SICK banger! These two bands will show ya that even though rock&roll might not be dead (yet), it sure as hell is SICK! But let’s be real: if this is what being SICK sounds like, baby, I don’t ever wanna be better! Nospray x Roodkapje present: Sick Thoughts (USA) + The Protos Sick Thoughts (USA) If you don't know Sick Thoughts, you don't know punk. The band is the mighty Drew Owen: Baltimore born and bred, he then up and left... moved to the swamps of New Orleans while still a teenager. The general consensus was he'd soon be seen hitting up tourists for money on Bourbon Street with a dog on a rope, but somehow he got hooked up with the best (or worst?) folks in the city and kept making great music. That, and the fact that 40 ounce bottles just bounce off his head, kept him alive. His third ever gig was opening for garage rock legends the Oblivions, who along with Jay Reatard and bands like the Carbonas are noticeable influences on his sound. From the outset, Sick Thoughts became known for its raw intensity and prolific output. Drew Owen has long since proven himself as one of the best songwriters of die-hard, old school rock‘n’roll! The Protos Primitive garage punk trio from Amsterdam with members of The Covids, Achterlicht and Burlers: raw, lo-fi and high energy punk rock with two guitars, a drum kit and a scream. It’s loud, in your face and stupid-perfect punk! As we all know Thursdays are the new Fridays, so we’ll see ya in the pit!!
