PWRFL Power is a Japanese guy from Seattle who plays the acoustic guitar.

To be totally honest, I had zero interest in sticking around for PWRFL Power…not because I didn’t like the music (I’d never heard it), but simply because it was a weeknight and I would rather go to bed. I came out for Needlegun, and being the first band I figured I’d be in and out. Then I listened to some of Teeth Mountain’s music and wanted to check them out as well. Unfortunately, Teeth Mountain was slotted to play third, so my in and out plan didn’t work out too well. I had every intention of leaving until someone I knew at the show said, “you should stay for this.” Against my better judgment, I stayed and didn’t really like it. I thought he played guitar well, but I wasn’t digging his quirky delivery and lyrics.

This recording is a perfect example of why I love taping. I really didn’t enjoy the show, but I really enjoy the recording of the show. Being there didn’t do anything for me. Maybe I was distracted alot during the set and that’s why I walked away thinking, “I can’t believe I stayed up for this crap.” But now that I’ve listened to it again, I like it. I don’t think I could listen to alot of it, but it’s very nice. But without taping, since I didn’t enjoy the show, I’d tell people it sucked. I can happily say that PWRFL Power doesn’t suck…at least not in this case.

NOTE: Recording removed by request of artist. I apologize to the artist for my failure to understand when he said it was ok to tape that I didn’t realize it was not ok to tape. Confused? So am I, but what the hell…
