dEUS will play a gig at the Groenplaats in Antwerp next friday at 17.00 hour. The gig is part of the ending show of Music for Life, a major radio-event in Belgium. Three dj's from Studio Brussel have been locked in a house of glass for a week.
Meanwhile they play songs requested by listeners and those who take time to visit the house. With the requests the listeners donate a certain amount of money to charity. The Belgian music-scene is also supporting the project with surprise-gigs, acoustic sessions and busking trips.
This year a stage was built on the house of glass. Every night at 21.00 there was a surprise gig. The first evening they had Editors on stage. Click here to watch footage of that gig.
If you can't make it to Antwerp, you can follow the gig live here (audio) and here (video)
Tom was on Studio Brussels yesterday night. He said he was dreaming of playing a gig for Music for Life for years, but they never asked them.
Mauro is very excited, because he never played on the Groenplaats. Tom said he is used to it, because he used to play on the Groenplaats with his acoustic guitar.
Tom also played squash for Music for Life with TV-cook Jeroen Meus. Tom used to play squash at a very high level when he was younger. He still has a good relationship with his coach. "If he askes me to play squash for a good cause, I just do it. Our friendship is too profond for that."
BTW, on the site of Studio Brussel they mention that dEUS will play at 17.00 and not at 21.00!!!
