Up in the sky

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ... The Superlative! If you listen to their music on Myspace you might pick up a bit of an Alice In Chains vibe on some of the songs. Said vibe was absent at this Mavericks show opening for Black Mastiff since singer Matt Beaudry was not about - thus the band was in "temporary instrumental" mode, and more than capable of covering for the absence.

From left to right we have Pat Lebrun on guitar, his brother Sylvain on drums, bassist Alex Tait and guitarist Kiel Burwell.



Sylvain hits! Also, that is the best rack tom ever.



Brother Pat frets.



Kiel picks a bit.



More Sylvain ... this rack tom is pretty good too!



Alex walks on.



Tapping action!



Wah action!



The band in the red.



Extra Alex!



Rhythm section action!



Even more Alex!



Bonus Kiel!



Grrrrr!



And that's that.
