Cloud Shepherd-The Foundry, Berkeley; 8/23/14

Just as seemed to be the case with all of the other great bands on the bill at the Foundry last night, the men of Cloud Shepherd were stoked to be playing and hanging out in such a cool space! Definitely aesthetically pleasing.
Our somewhat short set seemed to go alright. I had fun integrating the cowbell into the Cloud Kit; as we were setting up, I joked with Brian that we'd have to play some Mountain tunes. No such luck, but our two pieces seemed to get to some pretty dense drone spaces. A fun night!

Crow Crash Radio-50 Mason Social Club; SF CA 7/25/14

It was a bit odd, seeing the Birdsaw sticker on the backline drum set at 50 Mason Social Club last night. I think that those drums must have been Paulo Baldi's, on account of the Liar and Deadweight stickers. Sort of made me feel old!
Crow Crash Radio had one of those "just carry on" type of shows, in that both Brian and Andrew seemed to be having technical issues with their gear.
I felt that the ending portion of our set was pretty good, though, especially the Link Wray-ish vibes of Tarifa and our rave up action on Imaginary Companion.
All in all, a good, sometimes challenging time. There may be video footage at some point!
