Not to mention the beer
Well, BeerCamp was fun. At least the parts I remember were fun — I did have a little beer. OK, a lot of beer. Too much beer. Did I mention there was beer? Well, beer AND a ludicrous amount of heat, prompting rapid consumption of said beer.
I think I met a few cool people, and saw some good presentations, and of course saw many friends, but, ya know … the beer…
I was in a weird mood anyway. Somehow I wound up spending some time listening to a lot of the old band material in the morning before coming out, which always does strange things to my head. Then there was the “I spend 40+ hours a week buried in internet geekery, do I really want more of it on the weekend?” aspect. Figuring “probably not”, I just made snarky comments and had more beer :)
Well speaking of the old music, it’s probably time to throw another one up, so here ya go:
This is another one from the Acid Fist X days, so it’s a bit of a rough recording (resurrected from a well worn cassette), but not too bad. Musically it’s sort of a weird conglomeration of an industrial-hip-hop thing with a space-rock groove. Foreshadowed Linkin Park meets Hawkwind, maybe? It’s funny how it’s always the little things — my favorite part of this one is the creaking-door sample timed & pitched to harmonize with Jim’s guitar harmonic . Good times.
