CONCERT REVIEW: Ween @ Terminal 5, NYC
Tue Dec 11, 2007
By Zac Bardou
In 2002, Henry Rollins warned, “You will get down on your filthy knees and crawl to the altar that is Ween.” On Saturday night December 1st, when the satire rockers took the stage at Terminal 5 in New York City to play their final show of 2007, 3000 fans’ ardent genuflection proved Rollins prophetic.
Bowery Presents opened their newest and largest venue in October and have already hosted national acts such as M.I.A., The Shins, and The Decemberists. The company touts the newly renovated space, formerly occupied by Club Exit, as the largest midtown venue to open in more than a decade.
Forty-foot ceilings, two balcony levels complete with their own bars, a decidedly industrial ambience and state of the art lighting made the new venue a great place for Ween to close out a year that has seen the release of their latest album, La Cucaracha, and national touring that has rarely relented over the last 11 …READ MOREtags: 0 « add a comment

CONCERT REVIEW: Ozric Tentacles @ HighLine Ballroom, NYC
Tue Jul 24, 2007
By Zac Bardou
A few months ago, British psychedelic rock icons Ozric Tentacles had, by all indications, dissolved, and “disappeared off into the ether.” Long-time members, like keyboardist Seaweed and flopping flautist Jon Egan, have departed from the band in recent years and no upcoming tour dates seemed forthcoming. The band’s quasi-official website had ceased to exist and most fan sites provided only the most dated of information.
This spring however, rumors in the United States of the band’s demise were quelled by reports that the Ozrics would perform at the All Good Music Festival in West Virginia. A short time later, two scheduled appearances were confirmed at the Wakarusa Music Festival in Kansas and eventually a new Web site, ozrics.com, appeared, urging fans not to fear any ether-related evaporations.
In addition to the festival appearances and a …READ MOREtags: 0 « add a comment

CONCERT REVIEW: Air @ The Theater at Madison Square Garden, NYC
Mon May 21, 2007
Story by Zac Bardou

On May 10, the French electronic pop-rock duo Air returned to New York for the first time in nearly three years and took the stage at The Theater at Madison Square Garden. Back in the United States in support of their new album, Pocket Symphony, the band headlined a three-act bill with a hypnotizing performance that provided a comprehensive review of some of their greatest music.
Jean-Benoit Dunckel and Nicolas Godin’s compositions seem simple upon first listen, but eventually reveal themselves to be subtly elaborate, mingling mellow and meandering grooves with unrelenting bass-laden dance anthems that could pass for pop music from Pluto. An Air performance incorporates dozens of different instruments including guitars and basses, a variety of synthesizers and drums, and all manner of exotic woodwinds and strings, forging an inimitable brand of atmospheric electronica inspired by …READ MOREtags: 1 « add a comment

CONCERT REVIEW: Keller Williams – Nokia Theatre, NYC
Fri Mar 16, 2007
By Zac Bardou
When I first saw Keller Williams play in 1998, he had jammed himself into the claustrophobic and dimly lit corner of a West End pizzeria in Richmond, VA. with a couple of guitars and a tiny soundboard. On March 2, nine years later, the stage at the Nokia Theatre in Times Square was considerably less cramped and the old axes had a lot more company.
There were eight guitars on stage, including a twelve-string, three basses, and an eight-string snub-stem with five guitar strings and three bass strings. A lily pad-like drum machine, a Theremin, an armory of assorted noisemakers, a synthesizer and even a MalletKat electronic vibraphone joined the tiny soundboard that had itself ballooned in size and sprouted many new pedals.
There was a time that, in spite of masterful musicianship and innovative flair, Keller Williams’ loop-heavy one-man show might have been dismissed by some as a gimmicky novelty act. Now however, even …READ MOREtags: 2 « add a comment

'The Old Knit' 20th Anniversary Concert – Town Hall, NYC
Thu Mar 8, 2007
Story by Zac Bardou
Photos by TJHospodar
At Town Hall on March 1, producer Michael Dorf brought together a motley host of musicians to celebrate the anniversary of The Knitting Factory, a pillar of longevity in the New York music scene that he co-founded twenty years ago. In store for those in attendance were two provocatively eclectic and variously exploratory sets that would provide an exhaustive review of the myriad avant-garde musical ventures that found a home at the “Old Knit” during the 90s.
A jazz sextet led by Roy Nathanson opened the show. Joe Lovano on tenor saxophone, Don Byron on clarinet and Nathanson on alto saxophone took turns soloing over the raucous rhythms of Brad Jones on bass and Ben Perowsky on drums. The horns and woodwind then joined forces, building to a cacophonous frenzy of honks, howls and extraterrestrial screeches before giving way to a Bill Ware vibraphone solo and an energetic ensemble finish …READ MOREtags: 0 « add a comment

CONCERT REVIEW: Garage a Benevento – B.B. King’s Blues Club, NYC
Wed Jan 10, 2007
By Zac Bardou
On Dec. 23, the jazz quartet Garage a Trois was scheduled to debut a new incarnation, Garage a Benevento, at midnight at B.B. King’s. By the stroke of twelve a long and bloated line had formed outside the venue.
The expectant host, many sporting eye whites red as rhubarb, paper-bagged pilsners and cigarettes smoked with a tenacity that belied open doors at any moment, clamored jubilantly just as a mob of midnight music-goers in New York City aught two days before Christmas. Very little that begins at midnight is ever round one in New York, and the roiling revelry on 42nd Street was living, drinking, smoking and, well, smoking proof. The doors did not open at any moment however.
Well over an hour later, the line had doubled in length but diminished greatly in zeal. Club staff intimated to those who begged an explanation that a Hanukkah party had run overlong, but this explanation did little to pacify the standstill …READ MOREtags: 0 « add a comment

CONCERT REVIEW: Disco Biscuits – Hammerstein Ballroom, NYC 11/25/06
Sun Nov 26, 2006
By Zac Bardou
Even before the Disco Biscuits took the Hammerstein Ballroom stage on Saturday, Nov. 25, the venerable room buzzed audibly with an anticipation spurred by the performance evidently turned in the night before.
Cabbie-hatted hipsters recanted the Friday highlights to freshman frat pledges whose baseball caps sat at seven o’clock. Glitter-glazed girls in patchwork skirts giddily gave the day-old details to cocaine-brained Wall Street swashbucklers whose shore leave necessarily had not begun until Saturday. Even the assortment of anti-hippies, garbed in football jerseys and bandannas, adorned in epidermal ink, black leather and variously perforating chunks of metal, or even simply outfitted in the innocuous T-shirt and jeans, clamored about the night before and the night to come.
When the house lights finally flickered out and the shadowy shapes of guitarist Jon Gutwillig, bassist Marc Brownstein, keyboardist Aron Magner …READ MOREtags: 0 « add a comment
