    • Just read this on Facebook... Thee Vicars have a page here on the Hideout.

      Sad news. Chris Langeland, guitarist and co-songwriter with Thee Vicars (the one on the right in the photo below), was found dead late on Wednesday evening. I'll be attending the funeral in Bury St Edmunds on Tuesday 7th August.

    • Thank you , M.G.    -     A "SLAB" OR "FULL SLAB" IS A FULL ORDER OF PORK OR BEEF RIBS.    A Half - slab , half of the same.....

      I'm surprised they have'nt mentioned that on that program. If they REALLY wanted to see "Man vs. Food" , they should have see me tear away at a full slab at Rendezvous Barbecue in Memphis (Where , just by chance , The Stones have been known to get their 'cue on.).

      You never fail to put a smile on my face JB! What is a 'full slab?' never heard of that before, and Ive watched a lot of 'man versus food!'

      John Battles said:

       No , it's true. Mick is from The Deep South . He led the big migration to England that was later followed by The Walker Bros. , Jimi Hendrix , Suzi Quatro and Sparks. He had to take a course in Assimilation , though when he attended The London College of Economics. IN OTHER WORDS , WHEREAS AN ENGLISH PERSON MIGHT SAY "BANGERS AND MASH , PLEASE" , MICK WOULD HAVE SAID , "A FULL SLAB , WITH LOUISIANA HOT SAUCE , CORNBREAD , AND WHAT SIDES HAVE YOU GOT?".


       "TEA , milk and sugar , with lemon , if you will".        "Sweet tea , ma'am"

       " I SAY , I DON'T ARF FANCY HER !"    "Gaaahhh damn ! She's hot as July Jam".

      " I quite like Muddy Waters on Chess Records , me. It'd be an HONOUR  to share the same stage with him , one day....AHHHHH. As if that'll ever happen." 

      "Muddy Waters? I filled his car up with Regular , once. Purdy good guy to shoot the shit with.".


       Mark George Harrison said:

      Are you trying to imply Micks not from the deep south JB? The ever changing Jagger voice has always amused me, from well spoken middle class young man to naughty cockney to cringe inducing faux American accent. Still, when you've got his money!

      John Battles said:

      Mark George ,    WHA' , Y'MEAN , SOUTH OF LONDON?

      I've been too busy to just look it up , but , for eons (That's aoens in Yankeese.)

       I thought Jagger was saying " I'm gonna hit and run rape her in anger"
      (In "Midnight Rambler" ) , which , I thought , even for him , was misogynistic as Hell , though , obviously , not coming from the First Person P.O.V. , but from a role played in the song.     But , then , it occured to me , he was probably saying "Rapier" , as he's reading off a list of weapons ( " Knife - sharpened tipee - toe , shoot 'em dead....cloak and dagger....stick my knife right down your throat".).

      I also thought an audience member was saying "CODS , HAM !!! CODS , HAM !!!" , BUT , Rock'n'Roll fucks upyour ears.


      Mark George Harrison said:

      Sorry JB, I did wonder at you getting something wrong!

      A lot of Jaggers lyrics are hard to decipher due to his 'southern drawl!'

      John Battles said:

      THAT'S WHAT i WAS SAYING  , THAT THE CORRECT WORD WAS RAPIER , THE WAY I ORIGINALLY HEARD IT , THOUGH , WAS RAZOR.   FROM "HONKY TONK WOMEN ON , IT'S CORRECT LYRIC , FIRST.           ANYONE WANT TO TACKLE "MIDNIGHT RAMBLER , AND STAY FASHIONABLE , WHILE WE'RE AT IT?

      Whiskey in the jar is rapier JB, not razor. 

      John Battles said:

      "Hot and Nasty" , Black Oak Arkansas - "They call me hot and nasty , they call me Mr. Pansy.".       Actual lyric - "They call me Mr. Fancy".

      Johnny Thunders (And Walter Lure's Heroes) "Too Much Junkie Business"

      "Your the coolest thing in town , with your face flat on the ground. Friends went through your pockets as the coffee went down...."

      "...AS THE COFFIN WENT DOWN".

      ( I thought they were saying "Coffee" in reference the suposedly surefire way to revive an OD victim by pouring hot coffee down their throat , which , reportedly , is how original Dolls Drummer, Billy Murcia , died. ).

       

      "Honky Tonk Women" , YOU KNOW WHO. "I laid a Divorcee in New York City..."

                                       "I LATER DID THE SAME IN NEW YORK CITY....". 

       

      "Whiskey In The Jar" (Trad.) - Dubliners , Thin Lizzy.

      " I first produced me pistol , and then produced my rapier." 

      "And then produced my razor.''.

       

      David Bowie - "Hang on To Yourself" -     "And we move around like tigers on vaseline"

                      "If you like f*gg*ts and vaseline".  I'm sorry , that IS what it sounded like until I saw the actual lyrics.

       

      "All The Madmen "- "My libido split on me , give me some good old lobotomy."

                                 "And The Beatles split on me...." (Very topical for 1971.)

      "Ziggy Stardust" - "He could lick 'em by smiling....." . Do I have to say it?

    • To Kopper - Yeah , Tony Barber from the (Latter day) Buzzcocks was playing with The Creation at this time...Barber also played in Sham 69 , UK Subs , and reportedly (Tho' he denied it.) The Pork Dukes. In 2001-2 , The Buzzcocks were making plans to reform , after an extended hiatus , so Barber was alternating between The Creation and The Buzzcocks.....Pardon my Rock journalism. I was at the New York show and the two Chicago gigs. They were ON FIRE !!!! 

      Trace - I was'nt able to access this recording , but I will try again.

      I do know one person who made a top notch audio recording of , I think , the second night , but , I have'nt seen them in a long time , and don't know if they made copies for anyone , except , presumably , the band.

       I did hear , recently , The Creation are still gigging on occasion.

    • July 27, 2012 10:27 AM CDT
    • Cool, thanks for sharing. I saw the Creation the year before (Oct. 2001) at Cavestomp in NYC, a month or so after 9/11. They were fantastic... and, if I remember correctly, they had a member of the Buzzcocks in the band?

    • Hey Andrea, of course I "know you from around Boston" haha. Giuda was supposed to be Sun. which is only a hair better than Mon. but I have high hopes that it's worth going out early in the week. Unnatural Axe is on the bill and I'm not sure who else. That record is pretty darn good.

      Joanie,

      Hey, Andrea here (you know me from around Boston).  Thanks for posting about this.  I've seen the name Giuda bandied about but hadn't located anything about them yet.  This is some great stuff!  Shame they are playing on a Monday night, but I still may have to go check it out.

      For those of you who want to see someone new sounding like the heyday of upbeat rocking glam, check out Giuda from Italy doing a short tour in Sept.
