Rapture

Rock God

There's always the chance of missing a show like the one last night at the Seahorse, on the nights when you opt to stay in. Let that be a lesson to all of us.

The bar was crammed beyond capacity and there was a hum from more than the PA system, if you catch my drift.

We snaked our way around the bar and sidled up stageside right as the first chord resonated.

It didn't take long to get to a spot that was within five feet of 'Tis Himself.

Pure, raw, rock and roll energy. That's what happened for the next hour or so. The band was tight and fiery, the crowd was unsatiable; everybody was putting out.

I have a bunch of photos up on flickr, courtesy of this halifax locals poster.

"He's a girl-band," I said to a blase scenestar after the show. Mo had essentially said the same thing when we arrived. All I know is that i really did want to throw my undergarments up there, and I felt like a tiger cat in heat when Joel went nuts on the mic and then said "now i'm gonna play some guitar for you".

Been a long time since I rock and rolled.

Oh Baby!
