Battle of the bands comp tonight at the crow bar, the standard much higher than previous years. Completely blown away by the second band, "Jennifer Will Drown", mostly by the guitarist who effortlessly played complex and beautiful melodies. Hadrien was most impressed by the drummer, who he saw perform with another band recently. The guitarist (band comprised of guitar, bass, drums, vocals) used a standard effects pedal, as well as a MIDI pickup, which he used masterfully. I've seen them before, but have only really been a novelty, but this guy made it fit in and work. His frequent transitions between effects were flawless.
Satyricon (I think) was the 3rd band, who have performed the last 3 years, definitely deserved to win the first year I saw them, but last year they replaced they're drummer and have since lost co-ordination between members. They also haven't really progressed in any way since the first time I saw them, pretty much the same old routine. A nice surprise was the female vocals provided by the keyboardist.
Just about ready to tie up my ITC382 assignment, want to get the bulk of that out of the way tomorrow. Also have to investigate where to find ear plugs for the next concert I go to, and try and get a copy of JWDs CD.
