Gary Lucas 20th Anniversary Show--"One Man's Meat"

Celebrating 20 years of recording and performing with his band Gods and Monsters, guitarist extraordinaire Gary Lucas put together an evening length show booked by Live Nation at the sumptuous Gramercy Theater in NYC on 6/11/09 that spanned the length and breadth of his career. Here he performs with Gods and Monsters on instrumental free-for-all version of his original song "One Man's Meat", which was featured on his last Gods and Monsters studio album "Coming Clean", which received 4 and 5 star reviews worldwide. Rolling Stone called Gary Lucas "one of the best and most original guitarists in America...and a songwriter of established invention", referring to his co-writing of "Jeff Buckley's signature songs 'Grace' and 'Mojo Pin'. Gods and Monsters have been called "an underground rock fan's dream team" by the New Yorker, and Time Out NY raved: "The group is mindblowing!". The lineup of Gary Lucas' supergroup Gods and Monsters is
Ernie Brooks (Modern Lovers) bass, Billy Ficca (Television) drums, Jason Candler (Hungry March Band) sax, and Joe Hendel (The Latest Show on Earth), keyboards and trombone. This clip also features special guest Mike Edison (check out his book "I Have Fun Everywhere I Go") on theremin (ooo eee ooo)...
