Hey there, Caught Bare Jr. at Schubas last night. Damn. Any band that give away earplugs for free is OK w/ me. Not only were they loud, but they were relaxed, tight where is counted and plowed through most of the CD, along with some new ones and a cover or two (and a really weird partial cover of Sabotage by The Beasties). Apparently the anticipation of having Purcell open for them on Fri. did not make them uneasy. <g> Live they come off more, um, funkier I guess due to the upfront presence (both in your ears and eyes) of the bass and drums. And the mountain dulcimer (yes mountain dulcimer) has more of a lead role live as well. Damn good. I've said that. So check em out if you get the chance. Later... CK a tshirt that says Bare Jr on the back and "blow me off ... turn me on" sounded like a good purchase at the time, now, not so much ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
