Rock Gods #350: Adventures in Our Little Music Scene

Bolstered by tales of bands who wore fake mustaches and used phony names to get back into clubs from which they’d been banned, the sleazy ensemble Whorse snuck into Hamilton’s (from whence they’d been banished for starting a riot or an orgy, depending on who you ask) disguised as… a refrigerator. A new cooler had just been delivered to the club, and the huge cardboard box it came in was still near the bar next to the stage. Whorse—all four of them—piled in when nobody was looking, sat in there drinking and smoking for hours, then seized the moment. When TroJam took a break from their hours-long set, Whorse leapt out, grabbed the other band’s instruments, and performed a scatalogical new composition “Broken Through.” It actually should’ve been called “Broken Tooth,” because that’s what Whorse leader Paul O. ended up with when a melee broke out among the returning TroJam, the poised-to-strike Whorse and the Hamilton’s management. Bad week for TroJam, still reeling from the nervy Minnie incident last week.
Tonight: White rappers Crumpin DFox and
Kingle Candle at the Bullfinch. Say it ain’t so… Italian Bomb and Muzzarelli at Hamilton’s for (you guessed-a right) Italian Nite… An Evening With Farm Table at D’Ollaire’s…
