What does a Rumble winning set sound like in the year 2011?
Well, during John Powhida International Airport’s Rock ‘N’ Roll Rumble Finals set someone from Boston Band Crush posted the following Facebook update:
“Does anyone else think John Powhida is from another planet?”
Now, most of my alien rock music experience comes from Gwar. Locally we’ve got Planetoid living among us. What about Mr. Powhida? Could J-Po be from another planet?
I think the BBC folks may be onto something. There’s just too much crazy goodness going on in a John Powhida International Airport set for it to be of human origin. J-Po’s previous outfit, The Rudds, was a pretty kick-ass rock band. Here, the kick-assity remains, but it’s infused with synthesizers, danceable grooves and a healthy dose of insanity. It sounds crazy. It is crazy. But it works. It works beautifully.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, you may be wondering what a Rumble winning set looks like in the year 2011. See below…
