Nothing says ‘good time’ quite like Ninja coming onstage in his Pink Floyd boxers and performing ‘Beat Boy’, something that I was fortunate enough to witness at le National last night, when I went to see Die Antwoord with Stefan.

People who follow me on ye old Twitter saw me gushing over how fantastic the show was, and for good reason. It’s probably one of the best live acts that I’ve seen. What they lacked in budget and visual pazzaz – boner inducing videos of naked chicks rubbing each other aside – they more than made up for in terms of pure fun.

What surprised me the most was the diversity of the crowd; which was equal parts scene, hip, punk, nondescript and girls, and everyone was really into it. In fact, I kind of lost my proverbial shit when they opened with ‘Enter the Ninja’. I even moved a little. It was crazy!

So yeah, if you’ve listened to their music before and even remotely enjoy it, I’d recommend you go see them live because they’re fucking epic. So epic in fact that we might catch them again in NYC since we’re already here and they have a showed scheduled for the 24th.
