When a naked Brendan Novak kicked off the show with a rendition of Phil Collins’ In The Air Tonight you knew this would be a non-conformist performance.
And what else would you expect from a man who burst onto the scene by hurling himself off speeding cars into bushes and waking up his parents in the early hours of the morning with heavy metal and a plunger.
Bam Margera has gathered the best musicians from his escapades on TV’s Jackass, Viva La Bam and other crazy TV shows to somehow created a genuinely good rock band.
It didn’t really feel like a gig. It was as if he’d invited the crowd to a very messy after-party at his house.
He called all the women at The Haunt on stage for a cover of Bloodhound Gang’s The Ballad of Chasey Lain – a song about a porn star.
And a group of girls stayed on stage for the remainder of the performance in their bras.
Audience participation was a common feature throughout, with Bam hurling fans from the stage into the crowd for a spot of crowd-surfing during songs.
The music was punchy, shouty, and the bassline on their marquee record Bend My D*** might well have send a tidal wave to France.
Whatever this man turns his hand to, he is adored.
