Ozric Tentacles 9/27/15 Spaceland Ballroom
So, I'm driving to Spaceland to see British psychedelic troupe Ozric Tentacles, the B-52s Planet Claire comes on the box and the light of the eclipsing Super Moon is guiding me in. If only Sun Ra was chauffeuring me and my astronomical evening would have been complete. OT has been around since the jam Renaissance of the late 90s. Seemed like one or two original members. Noel Redding lookalike band leader on guitar and keyboards, mini Noel Redding on second keyboards, propulsive drummer (who I think was in Jamiroquai), and a stoned but talented Linda Hamilton on muscular bass. The Linda Hamilton character was a sight to behold, body builder arms that anchored the Brit-stoners through psychedelic Terminator territory. Thankfully wordless, (between their accent and dank haze, they could barely articulate the song titles), they were on autopilot on stage. Effortlessly careening from Prog to metal to dub to dance stylings.
