Yesterday’s leg of the Summer Slaughter tour in Tampa, FL at the Ritz Ybor was delayed due to a gun scare. Apparently a girl overheard two guys saying that someone was going to start killing people during the upcoming Job for a Cowboy set and everyone was evacuated. The long story short is that everyone was evacuated while the cops went through the place and found nothing so they let everyone back in after about an hour. You can read the details here. The article is worth a once over if only for this description of the metal heads in attendance as “the black-shrouded concertgoers, many of them wearing T-shirts featuring such bands as Goatwhore or bearing such world views as “Living Hell.”

Band Spotlight
Not many albums can serve as revelation and entertainment, teacher and confidante, mystical portal and emotional rescue, yet Lunar Nocturnes and Esoteric Incantations manages all this and more. Massachusetts dwelling synthesizer magic-user Jenn Taiga charts course for one of the most highly memorable musical destinations of 2021, and by that I mean the album is a world unto itself. Light and dark, welcoming and inhospitable...sometimes in the same song. A deep meditation and major statement. Fave track: "Braziers are Burning" Tridroid has the cassette version HERE.
What a bunch of panzies – scared of getting killed at a heavy metal show. Should watch MTV instead.
