greg ginn X 2 @ the moon, 5.22

darth vato's resident cali punk, steve steward, reports that he just booked two bands led by gtrist greg ginn to play at the moon on may 22nd (a thursday). one's a jamband called (what else?) jambang, the other's a "western swing" outfit called the texas corrugators that sounds (from the evidence on their myspace thingy) more like a collection of hubert sumlin loops than anything bob wills'd recognize.

while steve sez he's been instructed not to promote the gig based on ginn's illustrious past, let's just say that joe carducci described the muso's '80s progress as being "as if the same guitar player had passed through the stooges, black sabbath, and king crimson," if you can imagine that (and you should). the most "wtf" thing about the links steve sent is the gtrist's ostensible location: apparently, ginn now lives in taylor, texas, just north 'n' east of austin.
