Gary Lucas @ Tivoli De Helling, Utrecht 16/052007
Just got back from catching Lucas & Co. playin only two blocks away from
HQ.
Truth be told it was the & Co. part that made me venture outside once
again, as Mr Lucas backing band consisted of Jerry Harrison (Modern
Lovers/Talking Heads), Billy Ficca (Television) and Ernie Brooks (Modern
Lovers).
As for Gary, Im only familiar with the stuff he did with Captain Beefheart,
but just one Google search makes it obvious that the guy has been very
prolific over the years.
Upon entry it was sad to learn that Harrison wasnt there, since he
apparently lost his passport and was still stuck in NYC... Still, two out of
three wasnt too bad. Ficca bein one of the best skin beaters Ive ever
witnessed, and Brooks fully able to anchor whatever rhythms with his fluid
bass playin. So it was too bad that Gary Lucas turned up his guitar
histrionics at least twice as loud as the rest of the band (bad enough for
the rhythm section, but there was absolutely no audio on the saxophone guy
that seemed to pump a lot of air around durin their set) Highlights were
few n far between, and generally appeared when Lucas took a break from
playin as many notes as possible, most notably in their take of Abdullah
Ibrahims Bra Joe From Kilimanjaro. But I also dug the moment where some
Jack Johnson-era Miles Davis tune gave way to Suicides Rocket USA via a
short twist and that same duos Cheree... Anyways, I guess theyd be more
organized with Harrison in tow, so Dutch readers might wanna check 'em out
in Amsterdam tomorrow night...

After reading this interview I'm semi-seriously wondering if Richard has
taken up alcohol/drugs again.
I'll be at his Boston concert tomorrow night----I'll be the guy not
wearing
any clothes.
