Concert Review: The Nightwatchman & Friends - Troubadour, West Hollywood, CA - 4/15/08 - Page 3

The night was getting late, and some musicians had slipped out as the pop excursions were taking place, so it seemed like the show was about to wrap up. Then, Sen Dog and B-Real from Cypress Hill hit the stage with Slash and Vai.  They reignited the room’s energy and the place went wild as they all tore it up on Hill’s hits “Insane in the Brain,” “How I Could Just Kill A Man,” and “Rock Superstar.” The rock guitars fit into the songs seamlessly. Slash left, and the remaining members played House of Pain’s “Jump Around.” Sen Dog and B-Real exited, and the remaining band closed with Tom bringing it all back home by leading the audience in a version of “This Land Is Your Land.”

Morello stated that if the audience felt they got more than $10 worth, they could pay extra on the way out or visit the website. I can’t imagine any person in the place who didn’t, considering seeing just one of these gracious artists in so small a setting for only $10 feels like highway robbery.
