Think small

Last Saturday I headed over to Daily Grind to see some of the heavy sounds that the Grind draws.  When I arrived I was a little surprised to see folks downing their evening brews and all the chairs and tables in their usual place. Where had the show vanished too? Upstairs of course, to an even smaller room in the back.

Black Oak Decline started up the show - no bass problems this time around! Here's Mike, Tony and Neil.

Winnipeg's Dead Ranch were up next, with a sound somewhere in the range of Bison B.C. and High on Fire.

Great sounds (and a golden opportunity for my fisheye lens to earn its way).
