    The dulcet sound of Brent Hinds slowly closing in on you from the distance playing guitar. Then he stands in front of you, performs for a few moments twanging and rambling incoherent and moves on.

    I only saw Mastodon live one time. It was on the Remission Tour when they supported Dillinger Escape Plan. The entire band was pretty much broke, living in a small van, and all appeared to be homeless. They were all asking people in the crowd after their set, if anyone had a place nearby Detroit that the band could shower and crash at for the night. Everyone was like... umm NOPE! They destroyed that night though, and had no trouble selling merch. One or two albums later, they are on tour with Metallica, and that was all she wrote.

To this day I still feel proud of not once asking for a selfie and just wishing him luck for the rest of the tour.
