...tough guy but wore a shirt, pants and hairstyle that seemed designed for Ricky Martin. Granted, the group played a decent riff once in a while and certainly were not the worst bad ever to grace the dingy Paradise stage, but they were all but ignored. Even Jimi Haha, lead singer of Jimmie's Chicken Shack, picked up on the unfriendly vibe, saying towards the beginning of their set "Who's the best band at the BCN Xmas Rave? The World is My Fuse! Yeah! Who the fuck are those guys...
...Jimmie's Chicken Shack got the venue bouncing, dancing and laughing more than the other bands, but this was not achieved without significant prodding.

I was afraid that a mob of investment bankers would conspire...
...Jimi Haha: Why would you think that? I come from a long generation of Hahas. (Laughs) Well, it might be a little made...
