Well, Herring and the boys put on a fine show last Friday night. Rodgers reprised his Codetalkers role as the twangy-voiced banjo picker, Herring blazed through his usual set of chromatic runs and intervallic melodies, Sipe served up an amazing drum solo, and Fountain rounded out the group, hefting a six string bass to sub-1kHz heights. I will admit to nearly falling asleep during some of the more wordy songs, especially the one about unicorns and rainbows, but the odd reference to guts splattered on walls reeled me back in. I wouldn’t mind seeing JH let loose a bit more, but of course I’m biased.
In other guitar hero news, I have an audition tonight. This will actually be the third band I’ve auditioned with post-SD, to no avail so far. We’ll see how it goes.
