On Friday Oct. 23, Upstate Concert Hall in Clifton Park, NY hosted Griz, Big Wild and Muzzy Bearr of All Good Records. The show was completely sold out, and for good reason! Big Wild is an experience in itself, it's just one guy in a t-shirt and shaggy, goofy-looking hair up on stage with an electronic drum set, mixer, keyboard and a few other instruments. Unfortunately for Big Wilds set they decided to use the smaller speakers at the venue, which were so quiet you could have a normal conversation in the middle of the floor. Nonetheless, Big Wild killed it!! Griz came out with a fire lit and kept it going throughout his whole set. He jumped all over the map with some trap, dub, and a beautiful remix of Aerosmiths Dream On. His killer live saxophone and the other live musicians he brought up really vibed together perfectly and got the whole crowd whipped up into a frenzy! Behind Griz there was some of the craziest strobe lights I've ever witnessed, and with the help of these glasses and said strobes, I think my girlfriend and I may have lost a few brain cells! Overall it was an incredible show, and if I could time-travel I would go right back to the 10-15 minutes of Griz's set where he trapped* out of his mind and the crowd went insane!
*Trapped-in this case "trapped" means to play selections of super-heavy trap or dubstep like tracks.
