i've seen them a few times and it's a pretty good show. jon spencer's
got a great stage act, he's got the showman chops DOWN. real heavy
butt-shaking funk, except, no bass. does he have a bass player now? his
blues explosion lineup is j.spencer - gtr, theremin / r.simmons - drums /
j.bauer- gtr. on all four albums w/ beck bustin' on a section of one
track from ORANGE. hope this helps...
