Description

Dropsy Trio live at The Rose Bowl Tavern! James Mauck (Jimothy)- drums and cymbals Mitchell Killough - electric bass Mark White (mRak) - electric guitar One way of effecting a satisfying musical experience for the fastidious and chronically bored listener is through concentration, i.e. increased complexity through organization and economy. Also helpful is unfettered improvisation and the gentrification of "serious" music with recent advancements in Rock n' Roll. dr0psy collects musicians and transforms them into rabid, intractable virtuosos with an impossible lust for novelty. "Whatever man," opined Jimothy, the percussionist, through a small feeding hole in his oubliette. "All that philosophical stuff mRak says is baloney. We were just runnin drugs and... man, music is a joke. Most of us still sling, 'cuz music is illegal. Say, could you open this cell door for a bit, just to get a nice breeze going? I swear I won't try to escape this time." Please do not pet or feed the musicians. If they play well, you may offer them a small treat - they respond well to gentle verbal affirmations and offerings of paper money or high-denomination numismatics. However, when they perform badly you must berate them. Do not let this impulse be stifled or misdirected by empathy; it is essential to instill in these pitiful creatures the proper reverence for diligent hard work, the proper execution of which should be satisfaction enough to sustain them until their next musical duty arises. Sunday, October 3rd, 7pm. No cover. https://www.facebook.com/dropsyband/
