Doomtree Blowout

Tomorrow (Thursday night) I am going to this concert with ten other people. I have never been more certain of anything than this - we are going to be part of a helluva show.

I say "part of a show" because Doomtree concerts are participatory events. Not in the stereotypical hip hop way of being told to wave your hands, being told to make some noise (after you have waited two and a half hours past showtime for the act to take the stage). Doomtree come from the heartland and they are punctual and they don't have to ask for the crowd's enthusiasm because it is given freely.

Here are a few videos to whet your appetite. Doomtree can be very serious:

AND Doomtree can have fun. Warning: this video features a nearly nude Har Mar Superstar!

Here is one of the expertly shot tour diary entries that has been stoking the flames of my anticipation:

Lastly, this one is for Mr. & Mrs. G$ who refer to this concert as "going to see Dessa," I understand why you say it, but you might want to watch the video above this one or else you are in for a bit of a jolt when FIVE mcs take the stage at once:
