zero Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Just wanted to remind folks that Fruit Bats are playing at the Horseshoe and I can assure you that many of you would be seriously into this band and show. The folks at jambands.ca are cooking up an interview with bandleader Eric D. Johnson that should be up soon to whet your appetite, but I would highly recommend people at very least give their newest album Rumninant Band a close listen (it's one of the most important records of 2009). Also their previous outings Spelled In Bones and the sprawling Mouthfuls are the sort of 4-track experiments run amok in a studio with multi-instrumentalists who all double as recording engineers. It's truly going to be a stellar night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edger Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Yup. Grabbed a copy of Rumninant Band after the last thread that was circulating here about the band. Dig it for sure. Great stuff. Unfortunately making their show is just not in the cards for me tomorrow, but I am sure it will be well worth attending! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Seriously it's a beautiful beautiful album that digs deep into AM Gold in a completely new light brushing on dark and light strokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I love the whole album, but I especially love the guitar on track 2 that sounds like its right out of The Slip catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassink Wild Card! Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I grabbed tickets a couple of weeks ago...looking forward to it!

zero Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Eric uses this expression choogle, like 'we're gonna choogle for you' which is totally true of the Ruminant Band as a live commodity. There will be a lot of choogling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReDD Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I've been on cloud 9 all day. I've literally been waiting for this show since the tickets went on sale a few months ago. I'm hoping that we hear some songs off the earlier albums and not just Ruminant Band. The Earthquake of 73 being one of them! Keep your fingers crossed for me!
