| I wonder if I am the only powderworker who is a fan as Les Claypool as well as the Oils, or if there is any fan of Les that also digs the Oils. I feel strange putting the two in the same sentence in a way as one might think they seem unrelated; yet both have had an equal impact on me while coming of age, and remain in my canon as music that I identified with and shaped me, albeit for different reasons. If any powderworkers down under might be interested by any chance, next month, if you are so inclined, you can see him perform as I have quite a few times: http://www.lesclaypool.com/tour/ and one similarity there with the Oils there, methinks, is that they are unforgettable performances. |
