The Thermals "Test Pattern" (18.3 MB) from The Body, the Blood, the Machine High Noon Saloon Madison, WI April 28, 2009

So things were kind of raucous throughout the show. Towards the end of the set this mellow tune brought out moshing and crowd-surfing from the band's devotees -- not a common sight in the compact stagefront area at High Noon. Even frontman Hutch Harris seemed surprised by it, and that energy makes me want to see them in a slighter bigger room. Maybe my new basement in Carbondale will be big enough to hold 500 people...
