Try the first 2 Loli and the Chones singles (Weenie Choker Rock N Roll and Straitjacket Baby/Makeout Party) .... also the first, greatest Donnas album (The Donnas)... and Thee Tee Pees... All the Rip Off Records compilations too (Spoiled Brats etc) ... and of course the very first recordings by Jay Reatard under the name of The Reatards... Not to mention the mighty Supercharger / The Brentwoods and any other stuff made by the lo-fi genius Darin Raffaelli.

We think outfits add to the excitement of live rock-n-roll.  We recently saw a band we like and were very disappointed that they put absolutely no effort into their stage presence.  They looked like they just got off the sofa after sitting in front of the TV all night. Musically, they were great but we'll think twice before shelling out cash to see them again.

I'm not too sure what everyone else's process looks like. Mine involves lists. A ton of lists. 

I spend most of my free time listening to music on my commute to work (30 minutes) and writing them down. It's not really safe driving that way but its safer than golfing in a thunder storm. Those dozens of pieces of paper end up in my pant pockets and washed once in a warm/gentle rinse. Then my wife irons the pants (relax equal opportunists I cook and do all the dishes) =. Honestly I wouldn't wear clean clothes if I had to launder them. I fear the washing machine and have been at war with it for quite some time. The dryer is starting to switch allegiances, but only, I think, because they share an outlet. 

Once cleaned they accumulate on my dresser until I get pissed at myself for making a mess and transfer them to the W.B. Mason Yellow Legal pad. I don't use College Ruled because I don't really believe in in supporting something that wasn't true. On the W.B. Mason Yellow Legal Pad I create a set list and sketch the cover (Cover Creation to be discussed later). The monologues get notes and outlined as well. 

These, to be discussed later, tend to range from formal pieces to more ad libbed speeches. I try to connect the book as much as possible but have difficulty feeling like I'm saying too much (To this you are welcome to weigh in on).

I do this mainly because I love music and books. I made tapes as a kid. Lots of tapes. Mainly to people who hated my music that I wanted to convert. I saw myself as a musical John the Baptist. At least the living and converting part; I have no desire to be decapitated. 

And that is how I start the process. Next month I'll share the exciting world of shutting up cats and how much coffee is too much for podcasting. 

Rage Well,

Erik

Many thanks for your kind remarks, Muckas...!!

Nuthin's been pulled, Chris... just had to focus on other things for a while is all.

I got a the raw mats for a next Nasty Grind which I'll get out for June. It'll have some proper good tunes, you have been warned...

Till then I'm off to Vancouver where I'm gonna get Lady Muck legitimized... :)

Hey, and thanks for the downloads of old shows while I've been inactive, that's been very encouraging...

Oh yes, one the best podcasts around !

I wish you all the best dear Lord !!!

(And please come back to fondle our ears again, someday.)

Cheers !!!

That's right, I did indeed find the Donny B. Waugh 45 at that Numero show, among other goodies. That was my main destination point on RSD. After that, I bolted straight for the Jazz Record Mart to see Rockin' Johnny play. It was nice out, so I just kept making the rounds of the stores all day. Bought a lot of stuff, even though I mostly stuck to the cheap bins.

James did you FIND this at the Numero Record Swap?  I know that you "Talked'' to Donny's Bass player , years ago. I recently heard from his Second Cousin , who used to work at Manitoba 's !!
 
James Porter said:

Yep, Melissa, that's the one I was talking about.

Waugh was supposed to have an album on Vanguard (titled You Better Believe It) but it never came out, even though it was advertised on Vanguard inner sleeves...too bad, because Waugh would have been an excellent addition to that comp of Vanguard's late sixties rock bands that was released on last year's RSD...

OK , I misread this....I thought whatwave dave's comment was James talking....Because , we really only have one official record show in Chicago , proper , anymore.....Personally , I don't care if the people who only dabble in it are'nt getting at all the records before we can....But , SO many people only come out on RSD , and if a store does'nt have the Ltd. Edition items , they turn tail and walk out ,I've seen it happen. BUT , it does'nt help the local stores if so many people only come by once or twice a year....Same with record shows , but , you have to WANT to go to one , around here....cause they ain't 'round hyar a'tall!!!
 
whatwave dave said:

James: That sums up exactly what i've been seeing on RSD....now if these same people came out to our 2X yearly record shows (and more often to the record stores, once a year is not enough) they might start looking for some of the same gems we are!! And start digging some of the crazy shit that's right here on the Hideout!!!

James Porter said:

John, that's the thing right there. The person who only goes record shopping only once a year is only going to want the obvious - Dylan, Stones, Beatles, etc. Everytime I hear a non-collector flip out over vinyl, it's never the rarities we're into, it's more like the dollar-bin staples we bought long ago. These RSD releases are aimed at that person - the one who finds a copy of the Byrds' Mr. Tambourine Man and thinks they've got an honest-to-goodness collector's item that no one else has.

John Battles said:

Well , there's the irony . Even in the "Ma and Pa" stores , you see ALL these people that never go record shopping EXCEPT on Record Store Day , or 4 or 5 times a year to our once a week. I don't understand why a label like Sundazed can't cough up some rarities ( I guess there were a couple), if they're going to charge the price of an LP (or more) for a single that may , in itself , be exclusive , but not the material

James did you FIND this at the Numero Record Swap?  I know that you "Talked'' to Donny's Bass player , years ago. I recently heard from his Second Cousin , who used to work at Manitoba 's !!

James is right  , though , in Chicago , where we live ,almost all the record stores are out in Bum Fuck , Egypt , Not in the city or neighboring suburbs like Evanston or Skokie (MANY years ago , they tried , but , not enough interest.). They are'nt accessible by public transportation , so , if you want to go to one , somebody has to have wheels. Or James could've been referring to the CHIRP Record Fair , and/or the Numero Record Swap that was part of RSD....I did'nt do either , this year. I hit three stores on RSD , after which I was very tired and very nearly broke....

He's right! Surf, you dirtbag!

You mean like Dick Dale and Stevie Ray Vaughn in Back to the Beach? Or Arch Hall jr. in Eegah. The Ramones were in Rock and Roll High School. Guitar Wolf and the Royal Pendletons in The Sore Losers.

So far, I have really been digging the show. Keep up the good work!

FROM WOMB TO TOMB, FROM ZERO TO ZOOM, THE BUBBLEGUM FUZZ IS THE FUZZ THAT GOES BOOM!!! I don't even know what that means! i just like to say things that rhyme!

THE BUBBLEGUM FUZZ is a bi-monthly fifty-odd-minute effusion of 60's beat, 70's punk, 80's powerpop, 90's garage punk, and whatever cool newer gunk is currently titillating my tympanic membranes ((plus bubblegum, and fuzz!)). I caulk it all together with love, and, by "love," i basically mean ranting and raving. Regular listening is surely your passport to a fulfilling and largely torture-free afterlife! Thank you for your concern.
