You crazy? Mac is THE drummer for this band, always was, always will be. Don't get me wrong, I love Kimball's contribution, kick ass drummer, but Mac plays in a different league! And the jesus lizard would never be playing now if Mac wasn't in!
I was there, my first Jesus Lizard show, I'm 16. Unfortunately I'm disabled and have to use a cane, so I tried my best to loose my mind without stumbling on my feet. Really great show, I hope I can see them 100 times over again someday.
Glad you were able to catch the show. You’re f’n lucky & I hope you get the opportunity to catch them 100 more times! You’ve got good taste & give the ancients hope! Go you! 🤙🏻
in evolutionary psychology, using a cane, things that show you are able to live with a small difference, and believe in yourself, makes them like you cuz they want their kids to have that strong of a mind. plus canes are cool and a little bit pimp style, rock that cane with confidence .
I bought a print David Yow had made/drawn (of Top Cat, specifically), and when I ordered it online I included a note reminding him of a time around ‘91/‘92 that we’d met in Chicago and of a chat we’d had, and I doubted very much that he’d remember me - but with the print he included a handwritten note reading “Dan, you ARE a good person! Love, David” … and I still don’t know whether he remembered me, maybe he writes that identical note to everyone, but even more than the print I’ll treasure that note for the rest of my life. :’-)
I remember reading a bad review of Down where the reviewer stated that the music made her feel physically nauseous. David wrote back and said, “Sorry you hated the album so much it made you nauseous. We hope anything we do in the near future does the same. Love David.”
At this risk of sounding like an old man, this crowd needs to put their phones up & start going fuckin NUTS!!! This band legendarily has the most insane pits I’ve ever been in! More than any hardcore, death metal, gindcore band!
They probably had fancy drinks too. Don't wanna spill any that chardoney or rocket fuel, so expencive and these days. Maybe caviar too, or balogna. I know this crowd, baseball caps, glasses, go to the gym since 2020, music nerds, want collectibles at the merch stand. NO MERCH STAND?? 😮
As an owner of a JL split 7" from the 90's from one of the most epic shows I've ever seen, I concur. I almost drove 4 hours to see this show after learning about it the same day. Going to catch them in Dallas when they come back through and hopefully get a more enthusiastic crowd!
