Gotta luv Elvis :):):)......great find..I wannna a copy 2:):)

I just picked  up a copy of this great book about the history of Memphis garage bands.  I'd seen in whilst visiting Memphis about 6-7 years ago but didn't buy it and have been kicking myself for not doing so.  Thanks to Amazon.com I am relieved to have found a copy.  Can't wait 'til it arrives.  I have two of the 3 accompanying compilation CD's as well which are highly recommended.  Any other Memphis music fans here? 

Strictly speaking this should have gone into the Shameless Self-Promotion. So maybe next time you could put these events in there? Also make sure you add these sorta things to the events calendar so that everyone in the Hideout can see them. Cool?

Thanks a lot! Will do!

Hey All,

Wasn't sure if I should put this in here or in shameless self-promotion but since it involves 17 other artists I put it here.  The opening reception is Friday, May 6th from 7-11pm.  If you're in NYC and like monsters and art you should come by.  It's gonna be an awesome night!  Poster by Patrick McQuade.

well, i don't think i'll have enough time to leave the city.

But if i can find a cheap Danelectro 59 or 56, i think i'll not resist...

If you want to buy old records or old musical gear you need to go outside of NYC.  Seriously.  They cost an arm and an ear in the city.  If you've got serious money to burn, then I'll tell you some places.  But honestly, I have to leave the city to buy that kind of stuff.

Is anyone can give me some adresses for musical instriment shop ?? vintage/garage/cheap guitars amps etc etc...

they're totally different. botanica is a pretty low key 60's soul affair. motor city is more of a ludlow street garage/punk bar hang. both fun.

ok ! i 'll try Crif dog so  !

maybe on 7th or 8th !

There the Mr fine wine soul dj night at botanica or Newyork train punk dj night at motor city on the 8th , i'll try to do both ! which one is better ?

tell christophe to put up a party !

I'll be gone 9th to 12th of June, so we can meet up before I leave.

The first issue of Bananas I wrote on Crif Dog.  Second issue I wrote about Honey Chiles, which closed.

Will we have a chance to meet ?

Maybe around a pizza (love it) !?? it seems that you like food , what is the place you talk about in Bananas #1 ? i lost my issue somewhere...

Sam Black Church...oh, wait..nevermind.

Hey there! I have a friend that's going to Boston shortly and she wanted to know about any cool bands active in Boston. What bands should she ckeck out?

Thanks!

Anyone in here in SW FL who wants to put a rockin lil project together? I got drums.  VERY sleepy down here, this place needs to wake up BAD.   Thx  Elisa

Looks like I'm gonna be in Denver (from Calgary, Alberta, Canada) for a couple days in early July.  The 10th to the 13th I think. 

What's the best stuff to do while there?  I'm talking record stores and venues mostly.  Where's a guy go to pick up some cool punk LPs and 45s? 

Also, any info on the brewpub/micro brewery scene in Denver would be greatly appreciated. 

Mark.

My brain must've been flickering when I went past your original post.  Sorry 'bout that.  But glad we agree.

ELECTROMAGS said:

The Sights were one of the first ones mentioned in this thread, for the same reasons you mention.


Blair said:

Nobody's mentioned The Sights?  Seriously?  Eddie Baranek has gone through a number of different lineups, but ALWAYS gets very talented musicians.  AND the songs are great.  And he's a fantastic performer.

6 hours west of Brooklyn, its just east of Erie.  We can also hook you up in Waterloo, ON and maybe Toronto too.

sounds doable for rond juky 15- whjerei s jamestown?
