Bass virtuoso That 1 Guy opening for Rebirth March 16th

Opening for The Rebirth Brass Band on March 16th at The Wolf is That 1 Guy, a bass master that first impressed me when he opened for Buckethead in 2006 at the Republic. Here's some of that review:

"Opening up for the nation's most modern guitar shredder/virtuoso was a bass master--That 1 Guy. He was a one man band supplemented with drum machines that played on a homemade instrument. I thought it was a double bass at first, but turns out it was some kind of fretless pipe. I have no idea how it worked, and I'm not even about to try and figure it out. The only instrument comparable to his pipe bass is Futureman's homemade drum guitar. When That 1 Guy would slap the pipe in certain places, like the uppermost point, percussion would be triggered instead of bass.

All the music techies in the audience were taken with That 1 Guy from the get-go. So was I. It was great to see an awesome player perform on something so unconventional."

Dash Rip Rock performing "Legacy"

Dash Rip Rock added to Mardi Gras Line-Up!

Legendary local cowpunk band Dash Rip Rock will open for Bag of Donuts at The Wolf's FREE "Rock the Block" party on Lundi Gras at noon. A bit about Dash Rip Rock from allmusic.com:

Straight ahead rock & roll in the Southern tradition, with plenty of indie-rock energy to boot, is what has kept Dash Rip Rock going since 1984. A trio of vocalist/guitarist Bill Davis, bassist Ned "Hoaky" Hickel and drummer Chris Luckette, the group formed in 1984, originally with Fred LeBlanc on drums, though he left in 1989 (after the Mammoth label LPs Dash Rip Rock and Ace of Clubs) to found Cowboy Mouth. The duo then recruited Luckette and recorded 1990's Not of This World with producer Jim Dickinson. After the concert record Boiled Alive!, Dash Rip Rock left Mammoth Records and released 1993's Tiger Town on Doctor Dream. Two more label switches, from Sector 2 to Naked Language, preceded the release of 1995's Get You Some of Me(after which Luckette left the band) and 1996's Dash Rip Rock's Gold Record. Pay Dirt followed in 1998.
