I once sub-let some rooms to a couple of Swedes who were around the same age as me and were studying at a local university for the year. This led me to joining in on a lot of the uni’s Scandinavian Society “activities”. It was a really great year!

A Norwegian guy I befriended, handed me a couple of “Turboneger” CDs. I was slightly concerned at first, but then I deciphered the Norwegian humour and really got into it.

Fast forward 3-4 years, and I found myself in the front row at a couple of Turbonegro gigs, high-fiving the sweaty, sweaty leather glove of former lead singer, “Hank von Helvete” (RIP) and marveling at the licks of lead guitarist “Euroboy”, both seen in this vid of a set at a German music festival. Fun times.
