I "saw" "them" at the Kennel Club (once the VIS, now Justice League) in San 
Francisco probably nearly a decade ago.  After two sets by others oriented 
more toward visual performance than toward sound, a deep droning wall of 
low-frequency rumble seeped into the club anonymously through the speakers, 
with Andrew M. nowhere in sight.  The sound itself was powerful as it shook 
the floor and the listeners, but even more interesting were the latter, 
several of whom began to writhe together as the effects of the music made 
themselves felt.  As music or performance alone the event would have left 
me wanting more, but after a hour of mind and body-altering bass bin 
trembling among what seemed a sea of quite surprisingly aroused people I 
found myself looking back upon one of more unique live situations in recent 
experience and a fascinating demonstration of the power of sound.  Perhaps 
H3O should be relocated from the experimental to the "booty bass" section 
after all...
