Return of Razzle

Razzle was one of the best Chapel Hill bands ever. Heavy, harmonized guitar; nimble drums and a bass that sounded as though it was strung with cement. They oft discribed themselves as Thin Lizzy+Big Black--and that's probably right. In any case, they were four of the most talented musicians I have ever seen. They broke up two years ago, but are having a reunion show at the Resivoir in Chapel Hill for a Katrina benefit. A couple members of the band have family in Louisiana. In addition to raising money, people are encouraged to bring old instruments they don't want for the musicians of LA who lost everything.

For us, we get a short return of mighty, real rock-n-roll--in all of it peacock like grandure.

Saturday, April 1, 2006. No lies. The show is free. Bring a donation or an instrument.
