This was without a doubt the most disappointing White Cowbell Oklahoma show I've attended (and there have been many).
Their showmanship was at an all time low, thanks in no small part to the departure of frontman The Sergeant. Several other Cowbell ‘musts’ were noticeably absent; there were no strippers, no costumes and no chainsaw. Most of this band's transgressions can be forgiven, but when they don't even haul out the Husqvarna for their traditional mid-set saw-fest, it's like there's a completely different group on stage.
Of all the shows to half-ass, why your CD release party? The music was decent (though not up to their usual standards) but the bombastic spectacle was completely missing. Their one redeeming gesture, aside from crafting a pretty wicked new album (Bombardero) was to offer up free shots of Jagermeister to pretty much everyone in the audience.
