Secret Chiefs 3 and Master Musicians of Bukkake


HOLY SHIT! Master Musicians of Bukkake and Secret Chiefs 3 totally kicked ass last night. My ears are ringing. Master Musicians started the show with their magically orchestrated noise consisting of different instruments, including an electric toothbrush. Then everyone really got excited when a costumed figure came out with a sequined cloak and a tribal headpiece attached to what looked like a motorcycle helmet. The laughter exploded when the costumed figure put on a show as he plugged in his headpiece to display blinking holiday lights. They then proceeded to rock out without their cocks out.
Then SC3 took stage. Excitement overtook the crowd. In order for someone to even remotely experience what a live SC3 show is like they would have to have a decent sound system in their car, drive out to the middle of nowhere at night, pop in their CD, turn the bass to maximum, turn the volume up really, really loud and lay on top of the car while listening. That's the only way to explain. It is the bomb. It's like what my mind would create if it were to able to spontaneously produce the music I would live my life by, sometimes repetitive (in a good way), sometimes crazy, sometimes hard, sometimes soft, sometimes hi-end, sometimes low-end, eclectic and kick ass rock 'n' rolling. HELL FUCKIN' YEAH!
What's really awesome is how all the musicians actually look like they enjoy themselves. They have great chemistry on stage. It makes me happy that they are doing what they are supposed to be doing. Like the instrument they play is part of their body and the music just happens. They make chaos into a melodic, thrashing sound. It. Is. Awesome. If I haven't told you yet, if you EVER have a chance to see them live. DO IT.
