Previously Instrumental

I got the urge to go see some new, highly touted, instrumental rock from locals Zebulon Pike and friends at the Triple Rock Social Club tonight... It's been quite awhile since I've seen a band in this town that has impressed me on a highly experimental/instrumental musicianship level.

Arcwelder used to be that for me back in the day (still is... when they infrequently play), and a little, largely unknown outfit called Build My Gallows High are very good at what they do (and under appreciated).

I'm looking forward to some long-overdue mind blowing, local instrumental driven rock tonight!

Still... No one's doing it better than these guys these days (too bad, not from here!)...

Watch Battles perform "Tonto" below.

An unbelievably executed song... with a video performed with an unbelievable group of light artists (United Visual Artists) from the UK.

Ve, vants ZEEE money, McCain!!!

After watching the pandemonium and window breaking idiots in St. Paul yesterday, I'm glad to be working from home the next couple of days.

Watching the "nihilists" on the news made me chuckle and only think of these guys...
