Hopscotch Recap: Day 2
By Allison Hussey | The Daily Tar Heel
Chris Powers | The Daily Tar Heel

Following Future Island’s set, I made my way to Kings, expecting to arrive a bit early to grab a seat for Black Zinfandel’s performance. However, when I arrived at the packed venue, my eyes turned to the stage to see the one and only Thurston Moore violently strumming his guitar. I glanced over to the opposite side of the stage to spot Japanese noise luminary Merzbow playing some kind of electronic instrument that resembled a frying pan. As a wall of noise protruded from the stage, I couldn’t believe my eyes (and ears)! Merzbow and Moore were jamming! Rounded out by drummer John Moloney, the impromptu trio tore through a feedback-inducing set that shook Kings to its core. At the conclusion of the set, Merzbow and Moore met for a brief handshake and then casually strolled off stage — a rather calm conclusion to a jarring performance.

Would love to hear a recording of this show
