Glenn Branca
I went to Glen Branca's Symphony #13 (Hallucination City) for 100 Guitars with Dave Fontana, Tory Lowitz his girlfriend Nikki and his friend Chris. It was the most amazing thing I've ever heard. 20 bass players 80 guitar players and one drummer and a conductor. At times it was nearly frightening, turning Disney Hall into a dark Mass scene and at other times I had to laugh out loud with pure joy. It almost never sounded like electric guitars, an army of huge pianos sometimes, at others times horns, strings, or a jet engine with harmonic structure. Awesome. Thanks for the ticket Tory and Chris!
