Project Eno show at 608 last Friday   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #116 of 469 |
I thought I'd post a big thanks to T Max and his crew on the success
of the Project Eno show last Friday night at the 608 in Somerville
MA. For hardcore Eno fans this was a real treat. T Max lead a team of
nine musicians through a double set of 15 of BE's notable 'rock'
songs from:

Here Come the Warm Jets
Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)
Another Green World
Before and After Science

Nothing short of seeing this music played by Eno and his cronies
could have eclipsed this show. I've heard several well known bands
cover some Eno songs over the years but none came as close to the
execution and spirit of this group of musicians. The highlights for
me was St. Elmo's Fire and Blank Frank, the former was beautifully
executed and the latter was visually stunning and frantic with
energy.

In-between sets Sensory Overload Pictures projected some fantastic
visuals on a drop down screen over the stage while playing various
instrumental Eno pieces from a variety of eras. These worked very
well in my opinion, very interesting to watch and the music just loud
enough to allow for conversation on what we had all just experienced.

For more info on the show and what it was about you can check out
www.thenoise-boston.com/projecteno There's a plan to repeat the show
on Saturday, September 14th at the Middle East. Those of you who are
not local to the Boston/Cambridge area should seriously consider a
weekend vacation to our area to catch this show, I guarantee that you
will not be disappointed.

My thanks go out again to the Project Eno group:

Peter Moore, Vocals
Gene Dante, Vocals
T Max, Guitar
Glenn Hughes, Guitar
Eddie Nowik, Guitar
Shawn Marquis, Drums
Tamora Gooding, Drums
Joel Simches, Synth
Joe Kowalski, Bass

Keith Infantino did a great job on the sound and Brittonie and Izzy
more than handled the lighting and effects. The costumes, by Penney
Pinette were fantastic, especially the glam outfits on the second
set. Mindy and Kelly were like some kind of surrealistic erotic game
show goddesses framing the stage and interacting with the performers
in ways best seen rather than described. Everything went off very
smoothly and they should all be commended on a very entertaining show.

There are no plans as far as I know to take it on the road anywhere. Some of the nine musicians involved are in other bands so the logistics may prove too much...
