Reigning Sound

Watching Greg Cartwright noodle during soundcheck the other day was eerie. Without concentrating on what he's doing, he plays and there it is - that sound from all those songs I've heard so many times. He's been behind a few of my very favourite records and all the while I've never realized how good he is at guitar. His playing isn't flashy but the way he weaves rhythm and tricky lead lines together is unaffected, always serving the song. Glad I got to see them play finally.

They must have played about 30 songs in all and by the time the audience forced them back out for an encore they'd already done their best ones. Also, they sold out of all their men's t-shirts. They had nary a one left, not even a XXXL.
