Seriously , when I was about 5 , and "Abbey Road" came out , I thought the first word to "Come Together" was "SHIT".

Seriously, this song ain't bad.

<---well, some of them are dead.

I developed a more forgiving attitude toward The Stones in 2001 , when I saw Chuck Berry for the first time , in St. Louis , at The Pageant. Kopper was probably there. Chuck KILLED . I figured , well , maybe I should give The Stones another go. I had'nt seen them since 1981 , but I'd tried to get into one of their smaller shows in the 90's. TheIR LAST ALBUM "a Bigger Bang" was their best LP/CD since "Some Girls" , if you ask me. MANY people would agree. But , I have'nt had time to listen to this song.  I WILL. i HAVE NO BEEF WITH tHE sTONES STAYING TOGETHER. What else would they do? It's a business , yeah , but the music has improved a great deal in the last 10 , 20 years.  

I know, right?

that aint bad man,i fuckin heard worse.

Deja Voodoo is great, it got to listen to a few tracks from House Of Knives in a Myspace page,  sounds very good! I like the Gun Club too and I listened to Blowstops and sounds good too. Thank you both. I found this other band that sounds similar to the bands mentiones before, 'The Purple Things' you guys should check them out in youtube. 

At one point, Deja Voodoo had a band that was imitating them...called House Of Knives, they only appeared on one or 2 of the It Came From Canada series of LP's in the late 80's. House of Knives were supposed to release an LP on Deja Voodoo's label OG, but it never came out. I'm still searching for a copy of those recordings...

Nobody else has sounded like Deja Voodoo since....sludgeabilly inventors.

I'm considering pulling out those stock EW humbuckers and throwing in some TVjones filtertrons.

Well, the Hagstrom Viking isn't in the same price range. The lower end model is still a couple hundred dollars more.

Hey!

I play an Eastwood Airline Twin Tone, and all I can say is that this is pure heaven.
It's a pretty heavy guitar, so I guess it feels like you can easily smash some heads with it and it's really well built, trustable.
Concerning the tuning, I tune it before the show, and it stays in tune all along most of the time. You can bend, trash some wild chords, do some noise shit, it always stays in tune. Fantastic.
It sounds very very good for a 399£ guitar, most of Epiphone, Squier and stuff don't sound like that. Sometimes mine has some kind of hollow body sound, and pickups are very good. I played a few humbuckers, and it doesn't sound that good for this price.

For the road readiness, Cole from the Black Lips plays Eastwood guitars, I saw him play a Eastwood Classic 6 at a festival, trying to smash it on stage but the guitar stayed alive haha. He played a Twin Tone too for a long time, so I guess, if Cole keeps a guitar that long, it might be a well built guitar haha.

Plus, if I'm right, Christian Bland used to own an Eastwood Classic but a bass guitar, and he was saying -on Youtube- it's a fantastic bass.

All Eastwood guitars have the similar built, neck shape, tuners, so I guess the Classic 6 might be a very good hollow body guitar.
Eastwood guitars staff is very active, you can ask them questions, if you any issue with your guitar they'll do their best to satisfy you. Very good brand.

GO FOR IT haha

This sucks. I was so excited a few years back when I discovered Nick Curran's music. It was EXACTLY what I was searching for. I pretty much live under a rock and did not know that he had passed.

A couple of years ago, Russ Gordon, who produces lots of free summer shows in Los Alamos, N.M. told me that he was bringing in a performer to Los Alamos he knew I'd love  -- Nick Curran.

As frequently is the case, Russ was right. I listened to a couple of sound clips from Curran's then-current album Reform School Girl. It became my favorite album of the year.

But I missed the Los Alamos show -- which I regret even more now.

When I first hear Curran, I assumed he was older. His raw voice sounded like he had decades of hard living. But indeed, he packed a lot of life into his short time here. I mean, hell, he started out as a teenager playing in Ronnie Dawson's road band.

Here's my review of Reform School Girl. 

Here's some more videos:

Sad sad day for r'n'r. 

RIP Nick, we'll always miss you!

Hey man, digging the latest show right now, thanks for that, lots of top quality rockin' sounds.

Not entirely sure CHRW have got things entirely right yet though, when I went on their site the downloadable 30 mins listed under The Freakout for Oct 11th seemed to be full of Calypso music! 

In a near future I will maybe buy this nice Gibson sg faded bass and I would like to know if some bass players around here use it for garage rock and how they like it.
He's the sound great for our kind of music?

that was a great tune,was'nt it on a bullshit detector or sumat.

HEART THROB OF THE MORTUARY

HEART THROB OF THE MORTUARY

Only joking!

I liked the ones I heard from Weed Siezure better than Cement Tomb Mind Control.  The studio songs are presented very differently than what I took away from the live set where I was much more impressed by the performance than the songs.  It's almost like two different bands.  There are different ways to look at studio vs. live presentation; 1 you can stive to reproduce the live sound in the studio (or vice versa) or 2 just go with the fact that you're going to sound very different in the two settings and just roll with it (unless you can cart around an entire orchestra).  I can understand either viewpoint and The Hussy seems to prescribe to the latter and that's fine.

Nope, I was right.  They all suck, all 39 of them.

It’s been pointed out in other messages that I am ignorant, insulting, and an opinionated ass.
I was wrong about The Hussy being on In The Red.  I’m not sure where I got that idea.  Maybe the Hussy guys ITR shirt or maybe a misunderstood conversation, etc I don’t know.  I did not set out to insult Larry/In The Red.  I don’t know the guy personally and I understand that many people worship him as a god.  While I have no problems in pointing out the emperor’s new clothes, in this case I was wrong.
I was also wrong about the drummer in White Mystery being in The Ponys.  I misread and / or misremembered the Program Guide “Brother / sister maelstrom …  Alex White’s a veteran of Miss Alex White & the Red Orchestra … and Hot Machines with Jared from the Ponys.”  It goes on to say “Together with her brother Francis, White Mystery…”  Again, I had my facts screwed up and was wrong.
If I were submitting this post as part of a professional publication or serious amateur blog, I would have done some in depth research and really done it up right.
I don’t have time for that shit and just wanted to hep some folks to Gonerfest and a bunch of cool music that they might be interested in especially since no one else on this social network had even mentioned it, that I am aware of, except Anna Lee Cleveland.

It's been suggested that I check out some of The Hussy's studio recordings so I will.

I can't figure the site out.. for each letter I can only seem to see the first shelf of records per letter.. A section for example only goes from The A's to Adam and the Ants.. is there a way to see more or have they only archived one section per letteR?

Woo! Badass, man! I can't wait to watch this thing. First person to really bring Meek to my attention was Mark Ryan of The Marked Men. When I was just a little kiddo (about seventeen prolly) he let me hear the song Telstar and it pretty much freaked me way out.

That last sentence is great advice. First you've gotta think about it a lot and then POW you wake up one day and it's second nature.

I learned how to sing while playing guitar using the Ramones. A song like "Rock-a-way Beach" has all the chord changes during breaks in the singing. So it allows you to do one thing at a time.

Here's the honest truth: Singing and playing guitar is like riding a bike. It takes a while to get the balance, but once you figure it out, it's easy to keep going forward.
