Friends! How about the asskicking review above, from the Lust For Life zine? ”Get your boots on, put some bricks on the BBQ and pop that 40.” Somebody got the message straight! Before you head over to Haarlem’s Patronaat for our gig with Black Stone Cherry tomorrow, here some more stuff to read for y’all:
- Lust For Life interview: “No need for a straight line to the top”
- Live XS interview: “We just do what we do”
- Blues Magazine album review: “It hits you like a ton of bricks”
- Livereviewer gig review: “Rock solid”
BBR @ Trix, Antwerpen (Saturday 12-11-11 w/ Rival Sons)
Thanx for an awesome night at Doornroosje, friends. It was a SOLD OUT night! YES. Sorry to the many folks who had come to nothing but a closed door. What a way to start our journey together.
We started 11-11-11 with a spray can or two, as you can see in this video:
De Gelderlander (newspaper) wrote an article on our polite way of tagging, go HERE to read it.
Click on the following pic to view more atmospheric pics by a.o. Willie Kerkhof & Bernard Bodt. Guest musicians and cheerleaders included!
We’d like to share more 11-11-11 media with you. Maybe YOU made some cool pics or vids as well. Feel free to reply to this message and post a link to your stuff.
Catch y’all on the flipside! Next Sunday @ Patronaat with Black Stone Cherry!
The first reviews on our debut album are being published as we speak. And it seems like the press digs it!
- Dutch rockzine Lust For Life honors the album with four out of five stars and says ‘this album is so tough, I just might get me a tattoo’. Sure thing! Zine will be instore tomorrow.
- Lords Of Metal (81/100) states that BBR ‘grasps the sound and feel of the Southern States, while making it sound fresher ánd heavier’. Must be the smell of Texas Pete’s BBQ sauce.
- According to White Room, BBR ‘will blow its’ own Texan whirlwind’. Now that’s a nice one! How do they come up with that…?
If you want to read some more about BBR, here are two (Dutch) interviews for y’all: 3voor12 & Ugenda.
Thanx, press folks! More comin’ up. Take care, BBR

We’re getting closer to the 11-11-11 releaseparty and that means you can almost get your hands on this little piece of R’N'R!
Almost fifty minutes of Southern R’N'R, eleven BBR originals. What about the out-of-limits speedster Doin’ Fine, the mastodontic boogie Exit Spoiler, the slide-grindin’ In The Balance and of course BBR’s anthem to keep y’all psyched: Stay Hungry. Psychedelics, ballads and acoustics are also featured allover the record.
For those who can’t make it to our releaseparty: pre-order it thru bol.com. Although we prefer you go to your local albumstore and pay less for your pre-order. Saves you a penny for a cold beer.
