THE RONNIE VAN ZANT BAND - 10/13/07 NORCAL NOISEFEST @ THE SPACE, SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA
For his performance at The 2007 NorCal Noisefest in Sacramento, California IDX1274 conjured up an all-star expanded line up of his side project known as "The Ronnie Van Zant Band" when he was joined by JM Ginsberg and UFO as Bacteria for some improvisational sonic harshness!! IDX1274 manipluates a vintage Playskool Sit n' Spin like a giaint turntable with a toddlers Fisher-Price Popper as the stylus while JM plays an effected duet for open mic and cymbal alongside UFO as Bacteria making the threadwork to hold it all together. This was the 3rd performance by TRVZB to date, which is usually a duo consisting of IDX1274 and JM Ginsberg!!
