Born to persevere. Tough Shit may not be lame or blind, but he can't think straight. That's his fate. Helpless and strange, he goes his own way. That's exactly the way he walks onto the stage. And at that moment the world turns into pure joy, because Tough Shit has brought his band with him: The Horrible Facts – six oversized wood speakers.
Maarten Seghers has been inspired by the grotesque characters of Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel. Along with Camus, he imagines Sisyphus to be a happy person.

And so WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT DO YOU MEAN AND OTHER PLEASANTRIES celebrates a festival of emotions and a life filled with love and tragedy.
