Blew my mind watching him play it... Didn't Ferguson's lower lip, um, become no-longer-attached-to-his- face during one of his famous high-C notes?

More on the headliner: "To spend a moment on my stage would be to spend an eternity in a blood fart," says front man Mortal Death. "Thats what its all about anyways, moments. Moments of anger, rock and roll, sex, and scotch. Its better to just let those moments live on their own." CEALED KASKET'S live show is a frenetic medieval horror opera set in the dark ages, a presentation of barbaric hedonistic rock and roll so powerful it would reduce Alice Cooper to prison rape bait. The Onion called it " Over-the-top mock-metal played with enough death-rock affectation to make Marilyn Manson look like the master of subtlety." Equal parts comedy and tragedy, their rabid fan base comes not only for the music but for the theatrical experience-to be a warrior, to be a part of the battle, to join their heroes onstage with swords raised and blood boiling. Drinking contests, shouting matches, special effects, knights, wenches and backstage sluttin maximize audience participation. Special Effects by Bad Dog Efx ( LucasFilm Ltd/ 20Th Century Fox / Universal Pictures), and medieval set design by David Krause (Red Moon Theatre) set the tone for onstage dragon slaying debauchery as the crowds roar aids the band in pulling the proverbial and literal sword from the stone. Led by the self-proclaimed Jesus Christ of Heavy Metal, vocalist Mortal Death has assembled a rag tag group of supernaturals dedicated to the glory of classic metal, swords and sorcery. Sir Sarsicus, the 500-year-old wizard, works his guitar magic from castle towers and has been known to grow to extreme heights before the crowds very eyes. Bassist and diamond baron Maurice Pearlman can out-whiskey even the largest senator, and drummer extraordinaire Scott Jackson is satiated only by fast cars, titty-cams, and freeahem, party favors. The band is kept in line by the Soul Collector, the hype man and manager with a penchant for dancing, "gangsta shit", and stealing the spirits of the youth. I think my favorite bit is about spending eternity in a blood fart. Fantastic - where do I sign up? Michael "who the hell is booking this stuff anyway?"

More on the headliner: This band has the best, scariest metal names ever: Mortal Death! Sir Sarsicus! Maurice Pearlman (who used to own the grocery store down the block from me I swear)! And...the most bloodcurdling name of all...Scott Jackson!

Personally I prefer Twinings Darjeeling, but I suppose decaff is OK for weeds and health freaks. I think I would say "just below boiling point" rather than "just under the boil", however. - - Mike 'I once spotted a loco called 'E W Twining' Godwin n.p. "Do I still figure in your life?"
