Punk Shows and Firestorming.

Went to a show at a place called Albion House tonight. I got there late but was able to catch 2 1/2 bands -- Thought Crusade, Black & Blue, and Gryphyns. Gryphyns were like the "Safety Second, Body Last" Locust record without guitar having a seance with Neurosis and salted with City of Caterpillar--all informed with a certain rock swagger, a genuflection of je nais se quois. Thought Crusade and Black & Blue were fucking stompers.

After that I cruised to my friend's house for a High Life around a campfire. I remembered watching the Joe Strummer film by Julien Temple, The Future is Unwritten, where so much of it focused on Joe's affection for the campfire setting. Fantastic portrayal of a really talented communicator.
