Moose juice

Bullmoose put on a killer show at Mavericks Sept. 16. The Setbacks opened things up, but I was too late to see them and came in as Bullmoose was a few songs into their own set. They play some heavy duty stoner-funk blues that is most tasty to behold. Excellent raw vocals from frontman Eric Lawance (and the occasional bug-eyed facial expression to go with them), backup vocals and monster bass riffs from Seamus Cowan, and some tough but sophisticated drumming from Jeff Cowan (who I am guessing is some kind of relation).

Eric Lawance on guitar and funny looks.



Seamus Cowan on bass and hair-shaking. Take my word for it, he's under there somewhere.



Jeff Cowan hits the skins.



Explosive rock action!



Faceoff action!



Rocking on out!



A really solid bunch of performers, and a great opener for C'mon. I'd forgo many another band to see them again.
