NoMeansNo - The River

What can I say about NoMeansNo? They're one of those bands that I still need to explore much more deeply, but I have really liked everything I've heard. One article I read stated it very nicely: "When uttering the words 'Best Canadian Power Trio,' most plebian Canucks would primarily envisage Rush. For my money, however, the throaty bellows, funky distorted bass lines and battle-axe guitar choppings of Nomeansno slay Geddy's cat-in-in-a-lawnmower vocals, cheesy magniloquent synthesizers, sci-fi dungeon and dragon ramblings any day of the week." So, when NoMeansNo came to DC on a very rare East Coast tour, I was there with my camera. I had a friend who helped organize this tour and we had a bit of a falling out after this show, but that was a long time ago and there are certainly no hard feelings, so if she's reading this she should contact me about getting another copy of the show. This is from the Black Cat in DC on 11/18/00. Enjoy.
