Nice photo album of the Rome Mike Patton/Zu show (pw is zuppa)

Some toob vids:

Aurora, a friendly stubbadub reader recently attended the Mike Patton/Zu show on the 3 March, in Rome @ Circolo degli Artisti. She took some wicked pics and has kindly allowed me to post a a smattering of them. You can see more of her work here.

Mike Patton will be performing a string of dates with Italian band Zu. Zu’s music has been described as “a fusion of hardcore punk, free jazz and noise rock”. Should be some very interesting shows.

Tour Dates:

2 mar 2008 @ L’Usine Geneve (Switzerland)
4 mar 2008 @ Ossigeno Torino (Italy)
5 mar 2008 @ VK Brussels (Belgium)
6 mar 2008 @ Tivoli Utrecht (Netherlands)
7 mar 2008 @ Interzona Verona (Italy)

Press Release:

“(PR) Zu & Mike Patton have teamed up for a string of European dates. ZU represent something unique in the Italian independent scene, a band that built a strong fan base worldwide thanks to an uncompromising sound and more than 1000 gigs in nearly 10 years.

This time ZU have a very special partner on stage: Mike Patton an artist who simply changed todays’ music, from his earliest works with Faith No More to the experiences with Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, Tomahawk & Peeping Tom.
