Here’s my first local music discovery of the trip: Admiral Freebee from Belgium, whom I heard on the stereo in a pub in Ghent. In truth, I doubt any of the kids are listening to this, but one bartender in his late thirties who selected every track that went over the sound system himself, one at a time, is. (For those who wish to judge his taste, other tracks he played included Dinosaur Jr., Radiohead, and that one good song from The Division Bell.)
Anyway, Admiral Freebee’s number “Living for the Weekend” caught my ear, and I’ve liked the further stuff I tracked down on the Internet last night. Click the album cover to go to his MySpace page. ”Living for the Weekend” is the second track in the player.
