Their musical expertise totally blew me away, (no pun intended, I swear).
Do you know off hand if they'll be playing San Francisco anytime soon? Are
they keeping up with the insane stage antics?
While there were a fair amount of obvious provocative statements the stage
persona of Mike was of a California Latino with pencil mustache and
slicked back hair. He looked the part of a fairly dangerous border
dweller. His stage presence was very commanding and he'd go from whisper
to a scream visually as well as vocally...
