The weirdest was a band called Amazing Energy. It wasn't their music, which was fairly standard rock music; it was their show. My brother aptly described them as a wedding band having a mental breakdown. Their lineup was: 1) a middle-aged guy named Reginald something who goes by Scott Panther. He plays guitar and vocals and presses his distortion pedal erratically and does the standard throw-things/walk into the audience thing, except he drinks everyone's beer and tries to kiss/dance sexually with the college girl they talked in to playing shaker minutes before the show. 2) A rather jaded sun-glasses wearing bass player who is being taught the songs by Reginald on stage as they're playing them. 3) A guy in an oversized Killer Clowns from Outerspace shirt, who only screams and is part of some Church for Religious Consciousness. 4) A middle-aged Japanese saxophone player. 5) A drummer who's energetic but rather normal in comparison with everyone else. 6) Aforementioned college girl. All their songs were about lovin' and acid and peanut butter. Pretty sure they were all on acid during the show.
I have something to add to this. Apparently, the drummer isn't normal at all. He goes by Gahd Cop and wears a bike helmets everywhere.

Trust me, you don't want to have this that close to your ears. I think we need a new genre for PA Angry Prog
I really don't get this type of music although I have no doubt it appeals to fairly wide market. I mean, I remember how my folks (mom especially) thought the synth sounds that Emerson used were unlistenable, and maybe some of them were, but there just doesn't seem to be a whole lot of musical ideas here and nothing that strikes me as original. Then again, I don't like disco either.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music
