Hoquets
Trix, Antwerpen, 16 Sep 2010

If you ever need to explain Belgium to someone, you can safely send them to a gig of the band Hoquets. They have songs called '3 régions, 3 communautés', they can tell you everything about belgian Trappist beer ('L'abbaye d'Orval') and they even know a thing about locally produced biscuits ('Couque de Dinant')! They make their own instruments and thus sound completely original. I was thoroughly impressed by the string-bowing capabilities of the, err, guitar player (?).
