| Background/Composition |
It wasn't difficult to pick the members of White Cowbell Oklahoma out of the crowd prior to the show; they're huge cowboys. The nine-man guitar arsenal is intent on nothing less than world domination through country music and their bombastic live performances. I'd heard stories about Cowbell shows and frankly, hadn't believed that they could be as spectacular as legend describes. |

Nothing I could write here could properly explain the stage spectacle that is White Cowbell. A list of things I witnessed: Double necked guitars, a bikini-clad waitress serving band members drinks mid-song, sparks shooting from a band member's belt as he sliced into it with a circular saw, a chainsaw ripping through a three foot tall stuffed dog, breasts. |

As awe-inspiring as their on-stage antics are, White Cowbell would be nothing without their grandiose brand of country rock. People in the front row were swooning from the sheer ecstasy of their guitar assault. "Welcome to church," Sgt. Rock yelled. "White Cowbell Oklahoma is here to save you!" |

If you've never seen Cowbell in person, you need to put it on your "Things to do before I die" list.
