The last time I saw Watershed drummer Dave Masica, he was hunched over a cane, shuffling like Willie Wonka at the factory gates. A botched back surgery or three will do that to you. Make it hurt like hell to brush your teeth, let alone play the drum kit. But on Friday, 9/10/10 at the Rumba Cafe, Dave bashed it out like Keith Moon at Leeds, and it was the best thing I’ve seen and heard in a long time.
After the set, I said to Dave, “Christ, man, you’re a fucking rock star.”
“That’s right,” he said smiling. “I almost forgot.”
