Followed them from Phoenix for a second show. SOLD OUT!
This band is LEGEND. So fortunate to have seen them in smaller, intimate venues! Such brilliant talent. All of them are PURE FIRE.
Can’t wait to explore the expansion of the REALM
AJ Woods and his wondrous band opened up and were moody and marvelous. We were all very blessed that they invited Jim Stallings of the legendary Sir Douglas Quintet up on stage to do a few songs including his classic 1969 hit “Heya!”
Heather & Jeremy of A Hawk And A Hacksaw were in rare form. I haven’t seen them since they played a magical show in the Old San Ysidro Church in Corrales in 2018.
This gig at Sister Bar was intimate and ebullient!
Elder rules supreme. They pillaged for more than two straight hours, song after song, and in clogs no less. It's true. The bass player was wearing clogs...and he could kick your teeth in with them every time he laid skin to the heavy strings. He was front and center, before the drummer, who sat on a riser, holding court before us all. Their timing was tighter than a swiss clock. Neither of them missed a change (there are a lot of them), and laid down an indestructible foundation to rebuild all that the wrecking ball of icy guitars destroyed. I say icy because the endless licks, riffs, and solos coming from either side of the bass, trading off leads with each other throughout the performance, were hard and cold and sharp edged.
But when they applied heat from their insurmountable build-ups, to come crashing down on our heads with wave after wave of inspiring chord progressions, that ice melted into a torrent of incredible atmospheric metal such as I've never heard. There is some truly remarkable musicianship to be discovered in Elder; from the precise count of their extended measures to the melodic paths chosen to best express themselves. It is music I never knew I identified with so deepy until they absolutely murdered me with it.
The Rev was in full effect, as we're the Surfer Jetts, amazing show all the way around.
Rev played some old school jams which lit a pit on their tour opening, Friday the 13th show! Even rounded it out with their classic cover of Motorhead's Ace of Spades. Brilliant night!
Raekwon put on a strong show. Had love for his fans. I wanted him to perform more of his joints all the way through and not as much Wu material, but I walked away satisfied regardless.
I would literally go to a guano-ridden bat cave a mile under the earth to see Open Mike Eagle. It was true before last night’s show and it’s doubly true now.
