F.R.I.C.S.

The third stop in F.R.I.C.S's alphabetically ordered tour of Portugal's district capitals took place on Easter Sunday in Braga. Given the presence of less than 5 audience members by the time the show was supposed to begin, F.R.I.C.S. took to the streets and marched for an hour around the old part of town, surprising some people and amusing others with their melodramatic popular songs, while gathering a handful of followers. Having played their way back into the venue, the band performed another set late in the afternoon, with the members of FreakNation (the basque Grindcore band that shared the bill) guesting on the last song. All in all, a healthy day out. Next stop in the tour: Bragança, in May.
