You know you’re at a rock concert when the stage is decorated with giant Fender amps and the roadies are dressed up like Jawas from Star Wars (look for the glowing eyes at the end). The band looks a little out of place in the midst of all of this. Neil Young’s sporting his favorite pair of white pants and red suspenders while the guys in Crazy Horse are dressed like it’s a typical Saturday afternoon, complete with Frank Sampedro in his Habs jersey.
Powderfinger ranks right up there with the best Neil Young songs, a mysterious backwoods story over guitars that alternate between crunchy power chords and beautiful solos drenched in reverb. It’s hard to believe that such a full sound can come out of four guys. Maybe those giant amps aren’t just props after all…
