Butterflies, wife-beaters and a bald, overweight guy banging on a cowbell
FM Belfast got the crowd dancing and cheering – even kneeling down – to their heavy beats. Dressed up in shirts and butterflies, stripping down to wife-beaters and shorts, the band brought smiles on most people’s faces. Even the quiet guy in the corner – the one who was too shy to dance – began nodding his head to the band's hit song "Lotus", a cover of the Rage Against The Machine song.

A good party

Holly Bronko from Austin, Texas came to see the band because she just heard of them. She is at SPOT for the Nordic Cowriters workshop, making a video of the event. She danced all through the concert, and was soaked in sweat afterwards.

- I really liked it. I’m glad I got to dance, she said.

She had been working most of the time, and had been looking forward to a good party all day. She and the rest of the audience got what they came for.
