Fokofpolisiekar


Translating to "Fuck off police car"

We headed through to Kirstenbosch yesterday at about 4pm to catch Fokof playing at 5:30pm.

I suppose it's not really my type of music, seeing as I don't know what they are singing about, bt it was a cool vibe there anyway.

I was clearly graced by the presence of three young girls, all wearing white tops(Where is the rain when you need it) and sitting right in front of us. If they were any closer they would have been in big trouble.

It was clearly one of their tamer concerts, because as my friend Rob told me, at one of their concerts they were so fucked that the drummer jumped out of a moving car and broke legs and stuff and was out for a few months. So they had to get a replacement drummer for a while. I also knew it was tame when the lead singer, Francois van Coke, was seen afterwards drinking a Brutal Fruit. But no one can complain because he is fucking Francois van Coke, and he can drink whatever he feels like drinking. If he wants a Cosmopolitan, then give the man one dammit!

There were also the usual crowd surfers, and some who were not so good at surfing. One guy jumped into the crowd, and just went head first straight into the ground. What a class act!

As I say, the ladies in white were great, the music may take a bit of getting used to, I was tired from getting up at 4am, but hey, it was good times.
