seeing these guys live was easily the highlight of my 2008 year, what an excellent live band. getting to see them live with mastodon in october will probably be the highlight of my life.
From FirstAct dot com: For Matt Pike of High On Fire, we created a distinctive 9-string guitar, with three strings on the bass side and six on the treble side. Each treble string is doubled for a chorused twelve-string guitar sound. The maple and mahogany body features a gorgeous, classic cherry sunburst finish and intricate 5-ply binding. The pickups are a pair of First Act custom made Duomags with super-wide frequency range.
i hit traffic going into the city so i missed them open for mastodon. i was pretty pissed. i've seen mastodon twice since then though, they are pretty damn great. disregard that "highlight of my life" thing though, i was smoking copious amounts of weed three years ago, and that was a bit of an overstatement...
