I saw Merzbow last night – a totally bone rattling experience. I recorded a video and I was just looking at it now and there’s no point in sharing it with anyone since it sounds like shit! But i have some pictures… basically yeah he is up there with two laptops and occasionally he plays this thing that looks like a guitar without the arm. Lots of noise (duh), really loud, and this thumping sound in the background most of the night. He played for about an hour, the end was the best, with the strobey lights shining on him… my camera had run out of batteries at that point, because i recorded a bunch of worthless video… I shoulda known better. My ears were ringing afterwards. The venue was nice — the Archa Theatre.
