I was disapointed that I did not read anything about Albino's appearance at the High Sierra Music Festival. I was there. Camped in Shady Grove. Awakened about 1 am by this incredibly energetic band who was playing in our campground at what I discovered later to be the Flux's camp. I had been awakened before on previous nights, however, this sound made me get up and go see who/what, ya know? I had to go to the potty anyhow...haha. But I stopped to see, and I thought, "Who are these guys?" I mean, I can tell the difference from a band that's gigging in a campground to get "out there", but these guys were polished! So I ran to do my business...and back to camp to wake my friend. Told him to get up, promised it's worth it! the cool of the night was refreshing, the energy I envied - am I just too old? - This band happened to be scheduled to play on the mainstage the next day at noon. Actually, I had read about them, and had already planned on checking them out. So when someone in the small crowd told me who they were, I felt priviledged. When playing their last song of the night, the horn players mingled in the small crowd while playing. What a treat! It reminded me a bit of seeing Delta Nove play at the Mojave Slabs. Bottom line - coolness! After they packed up, we went by their own camp and were treated to a sampler CD given to us by gutarist, Cal. He was such a nice guy. He asked us to be there the next day at noon. (We were). We even caught them at their playshop later that day. Anyway, Albino was one our favorite bands at the festival.
