I would note that the instrumental number the band played second was worthy of placement in someone's upcoming skateboard film. Satyricon - Barnes hit the stage with a guitar and sampler and woed the crowd after a 45 minute love set from Portland local, Pete Krebs. Barnes ability to sing play and solo with the richest dynamics makes him an artists others should watch if they want to master the technique of playing live solo. Songs from an upcoming Cavity Search release were played and Barnes paced the show well establishing himeself with only guitar before turning to the use of a sampler to sweeten the rest of the set. The Rabbit Hole - What a pleasure to hear this duo live.
Additional arrangements are just the icying on an already yummy cake.
The Rabbit Hole was not an official club for North by Northwest, but would make a great venue to add in future years.
