It turned out his band was playing on the same bill at the Back of the Hand Studio. I had obtained the bullhorn somehow through my employer, the University of Colorado Recreation Center. The original liner notes indicate: "The opening number of the Strange Rituals gig, we opted for the studio version on this recording--Beware, the water rises!"
