    • By Flamin' Groovies , do they mean Roy and Cyril ? Because they WILL crush , kill , destroy ! , but they have'nt been calling themselves The Flamin' Groovies. maybe the promoters insisted they do.    One guy I know had the same idea , to do an all day festival in his garage and alley. He asked me to be the M.C. , telling me they might be getting Patti Smith and David Bowie.

    • Sydney now has the Dig it up festival, last year The Sonics ,5678's and tonnes more played, this year we got the flamin' groovies, the stems, blue oyster cult, buzzcocks to name a few.
      I'm thinking of starting an anti-fest deal, just getting a few bands together, couple of kegs rolling the garage door open and blasting it out of there, have everyone spilling out my front and into my dead end street

    • A few bells and whistles here and there, but mainly in the controls/pickups, in lead circuit you can isolate either pickup or throw them In together and adjust the individual volumes. The neck rocks a dimarzio humbucker dp103 and bridge has a dimarzio dp100 super distortion, isolating that with an old beat up big muff I got and I've almost found heaven

    • I never picked up on the protagonist in "St. James Infirmary" singing about The Clap , tho' it was'nt uncommon , then. I saw Charlie Louvin , twice , the first time , I almost had to beg him to do "Knoxville Girl" , and NO ONE had my back. Lame - o's . HE DID IT , THO' (HE ALMOST did "On Top of Old Smokey " , instead.). The second time ,he explained that "Knoxville Girl" was based on a centuries - old Murder Ballad from England.

    • I don't feel that Likes are important on any social network.

      Facebook is the nearest thing we have to Satan (thassa joke :P), it's a way for Zuckerberg to get rich off peoples' personal data.

      Use any other account, Wordpress gets a lot of hits, GaragePunk should be yr go-to for posting yer band's info. There are lots of other sites out there that aren't EEEEE-VIL.

      And no, it's not killing music, but FB isn't doing it any favors, either.

    • facebook is just another promotional tool.

      Off the top of my head, Big Sugar's "Sleep In Late" is one song that comes to mind. It fits my current mindset.

    • "Serious as a bowl of cocoa puffs.....Look at this picture , look at me , look at John. I look like Dracula! We both look like we're serious about Dracula.". Arthur Lee (To Gary Beeson).

      "It was IMPLIED that we lived on Bela Lugosi's estate , but , we never did" Arthur (To Me).

      I PRESENTED JOHNNY WITH A COPY OF LOVE'S FIRST LP , THREE OR FOUR YEARS AGO, AND ASKED HIM TO SIGN IT. ARTHUR HAD ALREADY SIGNED IT FOR ME IN THE 90'S.....

      JOHNNY : WOW ! YOU KNOW , IF YOU CAN GET AT LEAST TWO MORE ORIGINAL MEMBERS TO SIGN THIS , YOU COULD GET $500 FOR IT ON E-BAY.

      ME: UM....I DON'T THINK THAT'S QUITE POSSIBLE.

    • Y'all are killin' it, exactly the kind of suggestions I was hoping for. "Searching In The Wilderness" just went to the top of my list.

    • The Lost Legends of Surf Guitar series (I think there's about 4 of them) is really good.
