Sun Salutation, Mark Pickerel and His Praying Hands, Lucero, Blower, Blue Cheer, PYRX March 15, 2008

Mark Pickerel is from the band Screaming Trees.

Lucero's material covers a desolate map of the human spirit, marked along the way by lost cowboys, doomed relationships, bad habits and broken promises. Ironically, the translation of the group's Spanish name means 'bright star.'

The pioneers of heavy metal, punk, stoner rock and much more are still around and touring.
