Corndogorama blasts off

Posted by Mosi Reeves on Fri, Jul 13, 2007 at 2:13 PM

Corndogorama 11: Stick to the Future opened with a bang last night at Lenny's Bar. And even though there wasn't a headlining act, the venue -- and the parking lot -- was filled with people. I only stayed for an hour, and when I left I could barely drive out of the lot because incoming cars kept blocking my path. It's an early indication that festival founder David Railey will silence his doubters (admittedly, I was one of them) big time this weekend. For more information on this year's Corndogorama, refer to Chad Radford's story in this week's issue here.

The highlight of the evening was a reunion set by Fiend Without a Face, the power-rock/punk-metal group that spawned Mastodon. The three band members took to the stage wearing red Masonic Temple hats and pantyhose over their heads, and unleashed a killer 45-minute set of hard rock. Great stuff. Mastodon will perform with considerably more fanfare Sunday, July 15, Corndogorama's closing night.
