Nice piece of rumba soul-punk-surf The Fleshtones have put together. The most hardworking, honest and danceable basement rock'n'roll band. The blackest white boys of the garage, captured along the route of 30 years of partying and sweating. And they don't seem to wanna stop.

Friday 30th / 20:30 / Aribau Club 2
Saturday 31st / 18:00 / Aribau Club 1

The Fleshtones are built from equal parts soul, punk and surf. The most honest, hard-working, and dance-friendly of garage bands, the blackest white guys in the place, are sampled here over 30 years of celebration and sweat. It's hard to define the Fleshtones. It's like "trying to describe a party to someone who didn't attend". The Fleshtones might be the best live band ever, according to Peter Buck of R.E.M..
Pardon Us For Living But the Graveyard Is Full probes the magic, genius, personality and general high spirits of this fantastic group of (self-dubbed) "Super Rock", but at the same time, it's a reflection on the reason for making music in the first place. The Fleshtones paid their hard-knock dues and also tasted success, but in the end watched it escape. Still together as bandmates and friends since 1979, they know that this can only be done for love. Here we see them from their early days in the New York punk scene (where they may be the only band who did not become famous from the era) to their European domination in the 80s, through their dark years and then their final rise. Still dancing, still rocking wherever they go, The Fleshtones are one of our most precious, hidden treasures of rock-n-roll. All the members are interviewed here, along with fans, the aforementioned, Buck, plus Steve Wynn, Miriam Linna, and Dave Faulkner of the Hoodoo Gurus.
