I've watched Dig about 5 times already and am amazed that all I've ever seen Joel Gion from the Brian Jonestown Massacre do onstage was play tambourine. There was usually a mic in front of him, but don't think I ever saw him sing once. I wondered too how much that dude could ever have made from pulling a Tracey Partridge. However, the guy is completely charismatic and pretty much stole the movie. -----Original Message----- From: audities-owner@smoe.org [mailto:audities-owner@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Stewart Mason Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 3:26 PM To: audities@smoe.org Subject: Re: This and That ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sherman" > I saw Deathray Davies/Oranger/Posies in D.C. last night.

Several years ago, I saw the American Analog Set (who have a pretty good new album out on Arts and Crafts) opening for...some one of the Elephant 6 bands, I believe. They had a guy who usually only played a few measures per song, on anything from guitar to keyboards to a cymbal that he played with a bow. The rest of the time, he just stood there. No backing vocals, no percussion, nothing. I always thought that was admirably ballsy.
