It's a blur, with kaleidoscopic images, fleeting moments, snippets of dialog. And then there is a tornado that blows through. Morgan O'kane. The bus was literally rocking in place, we were all dancing so hard.
Some people ask about the process, how we pick the bands to come aboard in front of the Music Fog cameras. There is no recipe, other than some old, some new. Some girls, some boys. Some solos, some groups. Sometimes it is a recommendation, a feeling, nothing more. Shawna Cooper gave us the head's up about Morgan O'kane. You know about this guy? He was homeless, rode the rails as a hobo, and played in the NYC Subways. His old band was a "scum billy" outfit called Casa De Chihuahua. We're talking sheer joy here. Blow the roof off intensity. Gonzo spirit meets articulately flying fingers. Oh!
