The can’t-miss NYC summer music event of 2009
And I’m not even kidding. The foreshadowed event also marks the first time that someone has emailed me asking that I blog about a show! I have no idea if that was a widely spammed request, but strangely, I think they hit their mark here. In particular, fans of heavy drone/psych/ambient will want to mark their calendars.
You read that small print correctly. This will be an attempt to break the world record for largest msuical saw ensemble. And it takes place inside a church. I think you can be guaranteed that this will sound AWESOME. Unfortunately they’ll be pairing the saws with a bunch of normal musical instruments, but I still bet the world record group would sound mighty cool.
In fact, I think that any readers of this blog would agree that this event blows the competition clean out of the water. That would be the Siren Music Fest at Coney Island, which largely features a line-up of tame indie rock acts (well, I’ve heard that Monotonix rocks) and also takes place this Saturday. Yawn.
Hit up their website for more info. I really, really hope it’s recorded.
