Concert Review

GAM
Possibly the best live band I've ever seen. Savannah, Georgia's Gam is a band that you have to experience to appreciate. I could try to describe them, but I'd never be able to get the message across...but hey, I'll try anyway. This band plays psychedelic, acid-drenched rock music that sticks in your head like glue. And every one of their performances has left me feeling like I've been on heavy, heavy drugs. A Gam show is unlike any other rock show around. These guys utilize strobes, colored lights, and stage props (which is not all that unusual), but the sum of the parts--the music, the images, the performance--is overwhelming and hard to believe while you're witnessing it. Though they are still virtually unknown, this band plays with enough passion and energy to be filling big, BIG concert halls. For this particular Halloween show at the Velvet Elvis in Savannah, the band presented some new material as well as some new "headgear" that pushed them into the next dimension. This was possibly the best show I've seen this band play, and that's saying a lot since every show has been a complete KNOCKOUT. Get the CD. See them live. I don't know how they do it, but Gam keep getting better and better...
