Back home, I immediately took three mosquito bites on my back patio, time for another poisoning, lather up in deet. Mosquitos know where the blood is, the Hook Of Texas is sparse on blood, everything is so spread out, blood per square mile has to be miniscule compared to cities and suburbs. Standing water don't stand for long out there, but I'm sure a few of those bloodthirsty bastards live there anyway. Mosquitos will be the last living creatures on earth, outliving cockroaches, rats, and classic rock. To which I say, you don't have to try and sound like Neil Young when you sing a Neil Young cover, back to the music. Pedal Steel Noah's instrumental rendition of Billy Idol's Eye Without A Face at Marfa Spirit Company Friday night took me and shook me. Played properly, the instrument pierces the venue like a blade, the sound is completely unique and will never leave me, vocals would have ruined the set. Shouts to the bass player, rad is rad....
