but this was my favorite set so far . Everyone got a kick out of them roasting members ’ former bandmate Matt Smith of Hodera with headbands and backlighting . An MC5-like mix of political concern and silly humor with a chunky squawk , Secret Mountain blast through two-minute songs that are absurdly clever and noisily fun . The dichotomies are dynamic . Show organizers Green Knuckle Material were up next with a much stronger set of material than their mellow , acoustic-oriented debut EP , “ Back to Your Roots .” While the record was a really interesting and
unusual offering of acoustic rap , I was glad to see GMK rock out more , scratching a Rage Against the Machine itch at times . As on the record , the highlight was a guest appearance on “ Rebels on the Run ” by Jenna Rose , an aspiring musical theater talent who is the sister of bassist Dan Ravenda . It ’ s good to see this band come back from a personnel setback earlier in the year to take the bull by the horns not only with a heartier sound but sound concert booking and promotion . All I can say about dollys is that they are phenomenal . Once again ,
