Most of the time I hate living in Atlanta (traffic, heat, pollen...), but there are a few redeeming qualities, one of which is our thriving lowbrow scene. Also, Labor Day weekend is always super awesome in Atlanta because not only do we host the nerd fabulous Dragon*Con, but also the Official World Famous Drive Invasion

Every year my husband and my friends set up a tent in the parking lot of the Starlight Drive In Theatre next to a bevy of hot rods to drink lots of beer, listen to awesome garage, surf, and rockabilly bands all day, and then watch fun movies at night (this year will be Blade Runner, Big Trouble in Little China, and Blackula).  The music headliner for the 2012 Drive Invasion is the Black Lips, so if you live in the Atl or within striking distance you should head over to the Starlight on Sept. 2nd.

That really should be the title. Can't wait to hear Greg yelling at kids to get off his lawn.

Oblivians are fat and old. And slow.

Hot Pockets was right! DESPERATION is the album title. Oblivians are fat and old. And slow.

Even the Pagans got better when they got old and fat and slow!

Oblivians are playing Gonerfest 9 on Thursday, Sept 27. See for yourself, you gutter shop faceholes! (also SPITS, NOBUNNY, and a ton of other turkeys. gonerfest.com for more! )

And here we go! I heard back from Greg, and here's a direct quote:

"The Oblivians record is finished and should be out by the end if the year. Reigning Sound album is on the way for next year as well as a new Parting Gifts record!"

IT WON'T BE LONG NOW!! And remember, you heard it first here on Hideout! ;)

Another bit of Joe Meek film.... 

A few minutes of a BBC Doc. from 1964, with the man himself....

Yeah...and nice quality! Thanks!

I think this is the same documentary all in one view:

Well, that's a little more info about the song.  Didn't know about Deja Voodoo.  This version definitely isn't them though.

 I COULD'NT ACCESS THE mp3 , AND i DON'T HAVE THE ALBUM (I've probably seen it once in my life...) , but the title is a song by ( Miriam Linna -era) Cramps soundalikes , Deja Voodoo , from Montreal. I always associated those comps with Detroit (Once brimming with Garage bands no one within 100 miles seemed to care about.), it's possible they put Deja Voodoo on the comp under another name , as they may have still been under contract to Midnight Records in New York. Just a theory....

Thank you , Jarkko. Even Mike Hurtt does'nt think I'm a genius. Usually. You made my day.

GENIUS! We could collect collect a bunch of suggestions here and post a top 3 list or something to the ITR Facebook page! 

Or should we just propose The Great Uncles...? 

John Battles said:

 Maybe we could meddle and interfere by staging a contest to name the band. Actually , I think "The Great Uncles" is a great name !

Hi,

I am George from Athens Greece, 36 years old. I am a crappy self educated guitar player with passion for tone seeking and guitars.

in the web you will find me with the username SGACE.

I started listening to garage rock after I heard the Inside Out album of the Miracle Workers about 12 years before. After that i dig more into the scene and my favourites are the Gruesomes, Sonics, Monomen, Flaming Groovies, etc.

George

i lived in Austin twice and still miss the scene. May move back there. 16 years in NYC may have been enough.

Stoned Again Productions said:

Hi, I live in Austin. I am here because the music is exactly what I was looking for.  I was a teen all through the 70s.  Bands were playing / practicing in garages all over the city . It was way to cool.  You could pick and choose. The garage old school punk sound was considered pretty heavy back in the day, compared to today's standards.  I am just gonna enjoy myself. I did read the Terms Of Service before I signed up.  All is well. Good day, Drew F

I feel like a damn fool for having completely lost touch with the NYC music scene. I used to be in bands and have a lot of fun back in the day. Then I got in a relationship for 9 years and cocooned may way into nowheresville. Now that I'm single, and geezer-ish, I want to get back to my rocking roots. Is there any hope for me?

I have guitars, amps, pedals, time and riffs.

I'm Simon, live in Toronto. Grew up on '80s hardcore and got heavily into earlier punk etc at the end of the '80s, as hardcore started to get stale and the first KBD-style comps started to appear. Been into all kinds of underground rock'n'roll ever since. I really dig learning about older scenes and collecting records, and I run a label that mostly does reissues nowadays. The first Real Kids LP is my all-time favourite record, if that tells you anything.

Great seeing some classic Aussie 60's... especially the Throb. Have you heard their single 'Black'? Awesome!

Cheers

They have very good tone, and you don't have to worry as much about keeping them humidified (although common sense still applies, no leaning them against the radiator). They stay in tune better. No need for increasingly scarce premium tonewoods. A high quality guitar can be sold for less then a comparable wooden one. That's all I can think of right now. I've played a few, they were nice.

 ...it seems to be a graphite guitar

What's the special thing about them?

i made this song up last year. just off the top of my head. no vocals yet, cause i'm not a singer, but i have fun listening to it on my iPod while i walk the sidewalks of Manhattan:

Set your tone with a good amount of mid, some gain, and play hard. HAVE FUN.
