World of hurt

Time for another break from Bluesfest with Wrist Pain. This quartet of local music veterans boasts members from Weapons of Mass Seduction, Cold Coffee and Salty Boots, Daydream Square, The Trudels and The Solid Senders. They were openings things up for an evening of strange noise courtesy of The Bruised Tongue label.

The Duke (from WOMS) and Eric Espig (from a lot of bands).

The Duke goes wah. Behind him is Jason Vaughn of Artguise and Cold Coffee and Salty Boots fame.

What they plan next I know not, but a release on Bruised Tongue is allegedly "coming soon."

Who's the Knurling?

Gah! For some reason I was thinking Eric had been in the band ... I'm obviously crossing my wires with some other outfit.

My amp is in the band...

Hey! Update - Bruised Tongue put out the Wrist Pain tape.

Hmm, and according to their website it came out before Male Nurse and Year Zero's latest, and I got both of those ... I don't think I've seen it around. I'll have to scrutinize Sounds Unlikely's shelves more closely.
