That's right... legendary '60s garage rockers GONN ("Blackout of Gretely" from Nuggets and "Doin' Me In" from Pebbles) will be appearing for the first time in over two years when they return to the stage on Saturday January 5th at Off Broadway in St. Louis. Opening the show will be two of St. Louis' best bands: The Vultures and The Nevermores. Tickets are just $10 and are available in advance through TicketWeb.com.

I know there was a thread on the old forums...but besides the double down what other places are there to play in vegas...

does anyone promote shows there?

Sounds good. Bummer i missed it...

You missed a pretty good show last night up at the Comet on Cap Hill. It was a blast.It started early about 8 p.m. and went late. There were 2 bands (The Tripwires and one other band opening up) and then Wreckless Eric and Amy Rigby took the stage around 11 p.m. He and Amy played until almost 1 a.m. He did a pile of his new stuff and then had the Tripwires come up and do all his Stiff Records hits at the end of the show. He also did Johnny Cash's "I Still Miss Someone" and the Cyrkle's (actually Paul Simon's) "Red Rubber Ball" and a few others I kinda knew, but was too tired by the end of the night to remember. I got home way late and it took me another hour to get to sleep.
A fun time was had by all!

I won't be in Seattle for Wreckless Eric. :(

Here is the poster for this gig!

That should be a good show. I hafta miss it though due to other (over) comitments. I hope you can make the Wreckless Eric show at the Comet on Sunday Dec 9th though! That one I won't miss for sure!

Also I just got a band show on Saturday Dec 15th at the Shanty Tavern on Lake City Way (9002 Lake City Way N.E.) with Mama Tried. This should be a good roadhouse type show too.

Keepa Rockin'!

Cool...I fucked with my trip so I will be in Seattle on Friday for Head and the Paper Dolls...been awhile since i seen either of them...

I am playing solo at the Boxcar Alehouse (3407 Gilman Ave W) in Magnolia on Friday Dec 14th and it's FREE. I'll be opening for the band Southbound Union.

Lots going on that week too. Stay tuned!

I'm jealous...I will be in seattle the week of the 9th, wish this was happening on the 14th....

FREE! on Tue Dec 4 at El Rincon in San Fran is Statutory Grape, Psychokitty, Lucabrazi and Ol' Cheeky Bastard. It should be fun

Then there is Wreckless Eric at the Parkside in San Fransisco (with Old Cheeky Bastard) on Friday Dec 7th and then at the Comet Tavern in Seattle (with the Tripwires) on Sunday Dec 9th. Both should be cool shows!

Also on Friday Dec 7th in Seattle at the Funhouse will be The Paper Dolls, Head, Jaguar Paw and the Pranks!


Hopefully someone can make one of these shows! They are all real good bands!

Hey, I heard Wreckless Eric and Amy Rigby will be up at the Comet Tavern on Cap Hill in Seattle with the Tripwires on Sunday Dec 9! Could be cool. I hope to see you there!

CoCoComa will be celebrating the release of our first full length album (on Goner Records) this coming Monday, December 10th at the Empty Bottle in Chicago.

I heard that Ian Fisher singer of the Seattle band The Cowboys died yesterday (10/23/07) but have not seen any info on it. Anyone know anything? Nothing has been posted on their MySpace page; http://www.myspace.com/thecowboysrock or their label here; http://www.chuckieboy.com/cowboys/cowboys3.html Here is some thing on their 1997 reunion show at the Pain In The Grass Summer Concert Series; http://www.offcenterdesign.com/Bands/Cowboys%20Reunion/TheCowboysReunion.htm And something from the Seattle PI; http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/thebigblog/archives/124955.asp also the Seattle Times; http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2004010430_ianfisher13m.html These links will get everyone up to speed. The memorial at the Tractor Tavern in Ballard was a good one. I saw lotsa folks I hadn't seen in ages. Folks I worked with at the Old Central Tavern in Pioneer Square back int he day and elsewhere, plus people who gave me a break when others in this town wouldn't. I was probably one of the youngest in the room (at age 40!) I think Dave Deder of the Presidents (and honorary Cowboy!) had me beat by a few years though. Anyway the "Ian Fisher Memorial Roundup" started out with a short video put together by Michael Stein of Chuckieboy Records with interviews of Family and clips of Ian in the Cowboys and prior to his joining this band. It was good. There was no "moment of silence" but a "moment of noise" (as they said Ian woulda wanted it that way). It was a great way for me to end a hectic weekend of shows that started with seeing Girl Trouble & The Pierced Arrows at the Funhouse and ended with seeing members of some of Seattle's ledgendary 80's rock bands pay tribute to one of their own. Some of the folks on stage were; Steve Pearson (of the Heats, Rangehoods, Fighting Cocks and tons of other bands that elude my memory at this time) Mark Gunther (of X-15) on drums and long running Cowboys' bass player Jack Hannan, and guitarist Ernie Sapiro, plus Rick Smith handling the vocals for the night. There were a host of special guests like Jim Basnight (of the Meice and Moberlys and many other bands) It was a regular "who's who" of the Old Seattle (pre Grunge) music scene. Even John Keister (of "Almost Live" fame) was in the audience. Also a good chunk of my musical contemporaries were there too. In the "Old Days" I was way to young to see the Cowboys, and only got to see them on TV once (on a local music TV show called REV) It wasn't until 1990 at the last night at the Central Tavern that I got to experience them in their original form for my only time live (I missed their 1997 Pain in the Grass Reunion show!) and I was the schmuck that handed Ian a brand new mic stand (which he smashed to bits at the end of the set!) It is one of those memories I shared with folks I knew at this memorial. Sadly I only know a few titles of the songs they did at this Memorial (fortunately they were my favorites! "Rock N' Roll Cowboy" "Rude Boy" and many others were among them!) It was more a social scene for those who remember those times. If anyone of you were there and remember more feel free to post it here. I had a blast. It was fun and they say there will be another bigger event to come in Feb 2008. OK I need some more dang sleep!
