this one is for k cortez

The Nocturnals – Best experienced LIVE – NoHo 10-9-08 from Gary Zona on Vimeo.

Great night in Northampton at Pearl Street. My highlight? A “not on the setlist” two tune set closer that started off with Grace saying “this ones for k. cortez”. The band digs into “Cortez The Killer” which ends in a monstrous guitar solo from Scott but then, without pauses, segues into an electrified opening to “Nothing But The Water”. After the drum jam the band picks up the riffs again, drops the acappella closer to NBTW and goes back into “Cortez”. Classic. Thanks.

Oh and, nice photo. It took me a min. to figure out exactly what was going on in that one. Nice use of effect to keep it tasteful while at the same time excentuating them boots!

We left him alone, he was all emotional and crying like a little girl. No man should have to suffer that shame in such public forum.

Please don’t kill me in my sleep.
