Re: cool guitar synth intros



Totally OT:

Back in '83 I went to see Glenn Branca at the SF Symphony's New and 
Unusual Music series. I was joined, quite by chance, by Paul Kantner 
and Marty Balin (of the Jefferson Airplane/Starship). They both tried 
to pretend I didn't know who they were, and I played along.

Branca was known in those days for having the loudest performances 
(at least in the artsy new music world), with a dozen or so electric 
guitars all cranked. Kantner was unimpressed, making a point of how 
much louder his own band was. But it was Balin, whose comment I won't 
forget, "He has a lot of nice intros, but I keep waiting for the 
song."
