I'd go with '65-'69.
and I'd hafta find some way to travel around the country & the world in search of garage I haven't heard yet (:

And you can watch it all on DVD too. EGO the Living Planet said:

All of the best of the past is easier than ever to get at and you can get your own thang goin' like never before too.

The toys are better too! I can carry pretty much all my favorite albums around in my pocket. If I hear about a sweet new band at work I can look up their info on the net on my phone while I'm waitin' for the bus.

Late 60's-early 70's for sure cause of some triple bills I've heard of. Try Blue Cheer/Capt. Beefheart/13th Floor Elevators in Frisco '68 (how could you ever be the same after a show like that?), Stooges/MC5/Sun Ra Detroit '69, Suicide/Modern Lovers/New York Dolls Valentine's Day NYC '72, I mean come on.

Personally, I wish I could have lived in NYC from the early to late 70s, specifically 1972 to 1979. I would have loved to have seen the New York Dolls in the Oscar Wilde Room at the Mercer Arts Center, then I could have been there for the early days of the CBGB scene. The Ramones played their last gig at CBGBs in April 1979, that would have been a great capstone to an extraordinary time period.

Hell yeah, if I had a Wayback Machine (ha!), I'd love to go back to the '60s knowing what I know now and knowing what bands to seek out and see live, etc. But the late '70s would be good, too. Tough choice.

It's cliche, but I'd have to go with the 1960s.  There was so much change and such a shift from being locked-up to being yourself.  Speak/sing your mind.  Do whatever you do as long as you believe in it.  That's what rock'n'roll is - believing.  (and if I had to pick a specific area, it would be in NYC going deaf to the Velvet Underground)

Checked it!
Very very interesting.Thanks!

I'm downloading it now, but you should do an episode devoted to spaghetti westerns.

awesome!! and suggest some movies!!

That sounds great.

Looks good...

Don't forget Beauregarde http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRLQZspS4MY His band included a teenage (pre-Wipers) Greg Sage Then you also have Exotic Adrian Street http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbSfgOHun1w I think he release about 3 albums worth of material, quite a lot of it was covered by Rancid Vat

wrestling and rock n' roll have had a long past of intermingling, from WADE CURTISS who was a wrestler himself to Los Straitjackets and those ubiquitous luchador masks...right?

THE CRUSHER of the Novas anthem fame

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fzn_Z2w8K_k&NR=1
the johnny thunders of wrestlers?

he also looks and like a young version of The Kid from Brooklyn dot Com!
and that's TODAY's trash culture I really dig coz I'm was raised up a Brooklyn kid myself and this guy represents what south Brooklyn is really like - here he is screaming drunk about aliens
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZx6kNl_BGo&feature=channel

my question is who are the trashiest and punkest wrestlers? The Crusher gets my second vote for the beer remarks and sunglasses and Novas - I don't know maybe I'm just out of it - but he only get's my vote after Wade Curtiss! Mama Meow Mow Puddy Cat!

PORTLAND, OREGON -- TRY THE EAST END BAR IN S.E. PORTLAND. GREAT JUKE BOX SELECTIONS ON C.D. THOUGH. GARAGE, 60'S, POWER POP, GOOD OLD PUNK,N.W. ROCK. COOL BASEMENT AREA BELOW. LOOKS LIKE THE CLUB SCENE FROM RIOT ON SUNSET STRIP. THEY GOT A RECORD STORE DOWN STAIRS NOW AS WELL. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO SPORT BAY CITY ROLLERS HAIR TO GET INTO THE PLACE, BUMMER!

In Bonn (Germany) you can always go to the "Blow Up" (Rathausgasse 10). Almost any day of the week good music usually from the 60s, and every day from 11pm to 5am. For punk and sometimes garage punk we have the BLA (Bornheimer Straße 20) from 4pm to 2am.

If you take an iphone or your netbook (lots of places have wifi) you could also tune in to an internet broadcasting station like www.yeahright.eu or alike! Sure makes the airport-bar a more bearable place on your travels :-)

Last year I was in Austin at SXSW. I liked the Beerland a lot. Thanks for your quick answer. Probably i should make a Garagepunk map for good Bars around the World.

Austin, Texas; During the day and evening, check out Dog & Duck pub, really great food and a very nice selection of old and new garage tunes on their jukebox. At night, Beerland, Red 7 or Emo's has a wide variety (really broad spectrum) of live music most nights, ranging from 60s style garage retro to spacy trashy trance to thrashy hardcore to rockabilly to hipshake inducing, beer-drenched party rock with low, low cover prices and decent drink prices.

When I travel around it's often hard to find a bar where I can stand the music. It would be nice if some of you can tell me about some fine places you know of in your hometown or places you have been to when you were traveling.

One under appreciated comic: Dirty Plotte by Julie Doucet the French Canadian. I believe there are ten issues.

Nice R.D.

Cool rides guys !
Best,

I think you are right. If you could cut the price in bars and maybe "retro-up" the packaging, "BUD CLASSIC" kind of thing, skinny jeans wearing dipshits would all be swilling it. theeGrayson said:

I may be getting out of the demographic at 39 but for me Budweiser is the drink of your dad if he is a redneck mechanic. The reason the kids are drinking PBR and High Life is because you can get it for a dollar at the local hipster hang out. If I'm going to pay more I am going to buy a local craft beer with flavor.
