Ian Hunter, June 5: The Bell House, Brooklyn NY

Jesse Patterson, Ian's son, opened the show with his band, Thousand Mothers. They are a thrash metal band that reminded me of Black Sabbath though Jesse said his big influence was Weezer. He has a big tattoo on his right arm inspired by the band though the reference escapes me. Jesse said his father was against and said it makes him "look like a fucking idiot and that is not a paraphrase."

The bass player, Matt, broke his strap and had to borrow Paul Page's.
