Hello Wolf closed Saturday night's show at Sugar Hollow Tap Room in Danbury, CT, with a kickass cover of Church of Roswell's "The Witcher."
Hector had exhausted the guitar solo and mesmerized the crowd with an alien-wailing theremin solo.
Ruby had collapsed on the floor, beating a tambourine and not even trying to sing anymore.
Lasers strafed the stage and the house. Smoke encircled Bryan. He swayed on bass and pulsed the heartbeat of the extended finale.
I don't know what the rest of the audience was doing because I was dancing too hard to care, or film. If you're old enough, picture the rising crescendo of the best live mega-band performance from circa 1985. But, even better, we were in a venue intimate enough to read the Harley Davidson logo on Ruby's tee shirt.
It was awesome. Then it got awesomer. Bob exploded on drums. He was John Bonham and Keith Moon and Tommy Lee and... Bob! The whole combo together was so tight and powerful that I had to stop dancing to film. I didn't get much, but I got enough. Check it out below to have your mind blown.
After the last note, the guy at the table next to me said, "What the fuck just happened here?" He was flabbergasted.
We all were.
"That was fucking amazing," he told me. "I've been texting videos all night to my friend who owns a club in New Milford, telling her she has GOT to book them."
So, my sweets, stay tuned for news of our next show, maybe in NM. After all, she's GOT to book Hello Wolf. Spencer told me so.
