Rippopotamus

These guys were very tight and very funky. My only problem with this band lies in the tight leash they keep on the horn section. Let those horns loose!

Possessing one of the tightest drummer/bass combinations I’ve yet seen in a local band, John Monopoly completely blew my mind.

This band has no leash on their horn section. They rip. The drum/bass connection was earthy and solid. The gorilla costumes they came out in were a nice touch.
