View Notes
In support of their Atomic Garage CD, the Droogs were a late invite to the granddaddy of all Euro-fests Roskilde ’97, a four day annual event outside Copenhagen, Denmark. Flown in Thursday for their Sunday show opening for Phish and Isaac Hayes, the band were given full access to the multi staged venue with the provision they were on call as a standby act. Returning Saturday afternoon from record shopping, the band was informed that headliners Wu-Tang Clan were a no-show, the 2 am slot in the Green Tent was all theirs. Danish radio quickly negotiated to tape and broadcast that very performance. The next morning national newspaper headlines read: “Droogs bombarded by new rain of bottles.” Reporter Erik Jensen wrote: “Despite dangerous conditions the Droogs played a tight well organized program to the end. When garage rock is done so effectively in a primitive atmosphere, you give in. This audience did as well with calls for encores.” For the Droogs, best gig ever. --notes by Ric Albin This performance was bootlegged as Where The Bottles Flies!
