Saw Zombies perform with Love at 4th & B in San Diego. Love was spectacular but Zombies were ruly atrocious. We suffered through a half dozen poorly executed songs and split immediatly after God-awful version of Time of the Season. Interesting how some bands age well and others do not. On this night I took special issue with Argent's unsympathetic synthesizer palette and a little too much fumbling notes with one hand while waving at the crowd with the other. Would have been more enthusiasm if instruments were played by actual zombies. He could take a page from Arthur Lee's book, if the original members aren't up to snuff, replace them with musicans at the very least equal to the task of faithfully performing legendary compositions.
