    • I love digging up the old and new Halloween Specials from this site.  Thanks Mal.  and Podcasters in general should never think the Halloween special gets old; I think most people are waiting for those.  garage punk and Halloween go hand in hand.

      I have a mess of 'em in THE MAL THURSDAY SHOW Halloween Special, but I left out a whole set of psycho killers: "Strangler of Boston Town" by Thee Headcoats, "Albert, Albert" by the Bugs, "Night of the Sadist" by Larry & the Bluenotes, "Richard Speck" by the Chesterfield Kings...

    • Of course , The Horror Rockin' Horror Rock King , Roky Erickson , and The British Prime Minister of The Sinister , Screaming Lord Sutch.

      The Fuzztones did a respectable "Night of The Vampire" , but , Roky Erickson's original version is one of the greatest non - Novelty Hallowe'en Hymns , ever.

    • 3-D Invisibles , to my knowledge , are still around , but , only playing around Hallowe'en in Detroit (They used to sometimes play the odd Hallowe'en night in Chicago , as well , and opened for Rudi Protrudi , here , about 5 years ago.). bUT , GOOGLE 'EM OR CHECK THEIR MYSPACE OR FACEBOOK - YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ORDER THEIR CDs , which are all great. They've been around since the early 80's. They refuse to grow up. THEY WON'T STAY DEAD.

      Every 3 weeks I do a series of shows called The Eggman Collection which is a big potpourri of every song I've ever liked in my life...EVER! It's literally a huge mixing bowl full of songs written onto tiny pieces of paper. Over 15,000 songs that I've been compiling for the past 20-plus years of my life. Every song I've ever liked has gone into this bowl, and every three weeks I draw them out one-by-one and play them for you in no particular order. A mix of everything and anything I like, no matter what genre, era, style or year of release...if I like it, then I'll play it! No repeats of the same song ever! Tune in tonight (Friday) at 10pm EST for the 104th installment of The Eggman Collection and hear bands and artists like: The Chocolate Watchband, The Rolling Stones, National Lampoon, The Status Quo, The Mothers Of Invention, The Dirty Wurds, Peter Hammill, John Fahey, Nick Garrie, The Savage Rose, Beggars Opera, The Dragons, The Easybeats, Grapefruit, The Bonzo Dog Band, Strange, and many many more!!!

    • Yes , highly recommended. I made the mistake of not buying that Live album when it briefly appeared...I got in touch , very briefly , with Andy Blade , a few years ago. He seems like a good cat. Eater was unique , not just for their ages , they also had an unusual sound for the time. That guitar sound , especially....Other UK Punk bands were influenced by Glam , too , but were probably much more closeted about it.

      "The Eater Chronicles" is highly recommend!

    • Some younger people are impressed that I even saw Thunders , but , WITH The Viletones? There's no"Only" in that sentence. Did'nt know about the live album.  Hope I can find it , some day.  Their myspace had or has some really good , more recent , live footage....Leckie's people contacted me a month or two ago , because I sent him a message....Three years ago ! But , they were very gracious , regarding the delay. When Johnny played in Chicago for the last time , in '89 , well...it was'nt very good. There were moments. But , a friend saw him in Vancouver the week before of after , backed by members of Teenage Head , and he said that it was everything Johnny should have ever been.

      Although it wasn't the original line-up, the Viletones' Saturday Night/Sunday Morning is a great live lp. There wasn't any of their output that I didn't like. I only got to see them once--they were opening for Johnny Thunders at (I think) the Horseshoe Tavern back in '85.

    • In St. Paul, back in the early 80's, there was a band called "The Attack" who were an amazing Stooges clone. I used to work in the stock department at a major store in that town and often saw the lead singer who would be coming back from physical therapy! Now we both work as librarians in our respective cities(minneapolis for me and st paul for him).
