57Gregy Posted yesterday at 12:17 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:17 AM To see my friend Nate's band, Noctomb, play. Metal stuff. At Chapel of Bones in Raleigh. Four bands, each played about 4 songs, which was okay since each song seemed to be 11 minutes long. Man, was it loud! My clothes were moving from the sound pressure. Thank goodness my ears are already damaged beyond repair. Still, I sought out some earplugs later. There's no doubting their talent, though. The first 'band' was a man on guitar and a woman singing and drumming. I think you would have to be smoking opium to fully enjoy them. BPMs of 24 or so. It was good, for a while. The guy was playing a Danelectro. Two other 4-piece groups, the singer/guitarist of one looked like he just climbed down off the tractor onto the stage. He rocked! Not unusual in NC, I bet. Noctomb is a trio, and Nate was playing a beautiful, old Gibson SG that I really want. The rhythm guitarist of band 2 was playing a Guild SG-style guitar, I think the first Guild I've ever seen in person. Has anyone here ever played one? I enjoyed the whole night, even had a couple of beers. Still, I was surprised how uncrowded it was on a Friday night. Good for me, I don't like crowds, but how did the bands get paid? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennywtelejazz Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) Kenny's new three-legged dog walks into a saloon, his spurs clinking as he walks, his six-shooter slapping at his furry hip. He bellies up to the bar, stares down the bartender, and proclaims, "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw." 😄 Kenny Edited 13 hours ago by kennywtelejazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
