Wed Night Live recording of one man band from Fresno who is a bizarre genius. He plays a Chapman Stick and a rack of sewn together sound sources that can only be seen to be believed (or heard!). For example an audible applause switch he throws every time he says the word “Fresno”. This guy is a master at looping his own tones and vocals, at times creating 3, 4, 5, 6 part harmonies and layers upon layers of dense musicality. Like Weird Al meets King Crimson meets Frank Zappa. Pure genius. And once again, hats off to Smurf’s unrivaled live sound production and Chief’s MC’ing. 1) wed night live intro 2) intro to set with Brian, looping spoken weirdness 3) uses a balloon to create a kickass looping soundbed that becomes an intro his take on The Star Spangled Banner, reclaiming its roots as a drinking song 4) Slurpees and Pornography, about his rejection from the Fresno Arts Community in 1993, as well as Burning Man for “Harshing People’s Mellow”…brilliant, “just dirty hippies”, includes “audience participaton” 5) Porno Dan, with an intro, slow a capela looping masterpiece 6) generator intro 7) Generator, masterful Stick playing and usage of looping, singing, harmonies, really proficient, fun poppy proggy 8) Bobby Salazar, song about Fresno Mexican eatery 9) interview with him 10) Cobras In My Coat, mellow and dark and trippy 11) interlude 12) Wells, with intro, heavy prog feel, song about a lazy boss type 13) Shhh, about having a “secret boy/girlfriend”, cool proggy silliness 14) Yngway Smurfing Malmsteen, with into, classic, using toy guitar, spoof of wanky hair metal | ||
