Jack Bennett’s European Adventures: On Tour With DJ Carnage
Germany, Turkey, Italy, Ibiza, France.
Party & Bullshit
August 10, 2016

It’s been a little quiet at the Life Without Andy headquarters as of late, and that’s because our frontline shooter Jack Bennett currently on another international escapade, this time all over Europe with his compadre DJ Carnage.

All throughout August, Jack will be shooting shows with Carnage, with a little sight-seeing and a lot of alcohol drinking in between. He’s just made it through his first week in Europe, and we’re very glad to hear that he’s still alive because he’s responding to our group chat texts. Despite being severely sleep deprived, he’s also taken time to send us a few flicks from his adventures thus far with Carnage, which have already included married couples, private jets and a shitload of bangers.

Stay tuned for more galleries direct from Europe, and see what Jack’s been getting up to so far:

JACKLWA-1

We meet up with DJ Carnage in Germany with the quintessential Australian gift: Tim Tams. We then spend quite a lot of time discussing how long and shit our respective airplane flights were. Can somebody invent teleporting machines, please? It’s 2016 and we’re waiting.

JACKLWA-2

Germans are fucking insane when it comes to clubs. This is the scene from Friday night at Bootshaus, where everybody moshes and starts circle pits as if they were watching Hatebreed in the mid 2000s. Our ears are still ringing.

JACKLWA-3

Carnage flexing among a sea of lights in the club.

JACKLWA-4

On Saturday morning, we head straight from the club to breakfast before flying to Istanbul in beautiful Turkey. We also get to ride golf buggies through the airport. Signs that you’ve made it: You get to ride golf buggies through the airport while wearing Supreme underwear and camoflauge pants.

JACKLWA-5

Second sign that you’ve made it: There’s a chauffeur holding an actual sign with your name printed in Times New Roman. Shouts to the GOAT Microsoft Word font besides Comic Sans.

JACKLWA-6

Some fans are waiting for Carnage’s arrival at Istanbul airport, pledging allegiance to the ASOC flag. Props for the ‘I DO WHAT I WANT’ shirt. Swaggy life mottos are the best.

JACKLWA-7

Carnage getting in selfie mode on Snapchat to let the fans know that we’re alive, well and ready to get turnt at Life In Color festival.

JACKLWA-8

Papi Gordo slides on the pier! This humble fisherman looks like he’s having a nice time and ready to catch some succulent mackerel as we stop to take in the incredible views.

JACKLWA-9

We also bump into a married couple who want a flick with Carnage on their special day. Hopefully the husband and wife name their future child after him.

JACKLWA-10

Yeezys onstage is a major key. Life In Color is pretty fucking huge.

JACKLWA-11

Two shows in two countries on the same day? Carnage has a private jet for that. We’re off to Italy, so here’s a tarmac stunt.

JACKLWA-12

We eat some delicious Italian cuisine for dinner, but the most warming moment of all comes from the fans waiting outside to show love. Shouts to the kid on the right for having great hair and also a strong selfie game. #ActionShot

JACKLWA-13

Every show is 76 times better with flames. Italian clubs know how to do it right.

JACKLWA-14

Italy was nice, but it’s time for Ibiza. Brace yourselves for the party capital of Europe.

JACKLWA-15

Ushuaia is hard to pronounce but it’s a venue that you need to visit. Drink a cocktail while you’re there.

JACKLWA-16

Carnage backstage with his good mate and Swedish prodigy, Avicii.

JACKLWA-17

And yes, this happened. A very rare Paris Hilton is also waiting for Carnage backstage, and she still looks as amazing as The Simple Life days. This is the best moment of our entire lives.

JACKLWA-18

After Ushuaia, it’s off to Amnesia for a performance with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. Not only do these guys have flames, but they have indoor flamethrowers. Hank Scorpio in the house.

JACKLWA-19

A smooch for Like Mike after an insane set.

JACKLWA-20

Making your mates jump off the villa roof during sunrise makes for good Snapchat banter.

JACKLWA-21

We now head to the South of France for another packed club show…

JACKLWA-22

… Featuring a new addition to the family. We find a baby doll that looks like Carnage at the service station and he is now at every damn show. Here is Carnage feeding Baby Carnage some Belvedere, no chaser. The second installment of European adventures is arriving online soon!
