Brought to the table

I've seen Holy Fuck a couple of times before, but I think their Bluesfest 2009 set was the first time I've seen the same lineup twice in a row - usually their rhythm section has changed a member. The previous occasion was a headlining gig at Barrymore's with locals Squelchbox and Crush Buildings in July 2008, with really good sets from all concerned. They didn't seem to thrill me as much this time - maybe I should stick to seeing them once every two years so I don't become jaded.

Matt Schulz (ex-Enon) and Matt McQuaid flank Graham Walsh.

Graham sings!



Matt McQuaid was definitely the guy jumping around the most .. course, it is a bit easier for him.



Brian sings!



Knob-twisting action!



Somewhere in the back of the tangle is Matt Schulz.



The whole lot!



Right now they're out west for Bumbershoot, then they'll skip back over the continent for another festival in Quebec City.
