I agree, I don't sense any "rivalry" between Chicago and Detroit. From what I gather, we have a pretty neighborly attitude to Chicago over here. I mean, it is the coolest big city close by; not that Detroit isn't cool, but in all reality you don't hear about people from Chicago longing for a road trip getaway to Detroit so much as it is vice versa. To us, getting a gig or seeing a show in Chicago is a fun treat. I know of many Michigan bands that start to "expand" and either move to Chicago or simply play shows there regularly. 

Right now, The Metrotimes Blowout is going on, which is a pretty big deal (one of the biggest local music festivals in the country) and I know some Chicago bands manage to get a gig playing it (even though the point is that it is 98% metro-Detroit area bands). 

http://www.mtblowout.com/

Like John said, the increasingly higher overhead for touring really weeds out a lot of the "wimps", sadly. Plus, I simply think that live music doesn't have the appeal/draw it once had several years back (as indicated by the shrinking numbers of live music venues).

On a side note, the Hentchmen still play out here and there, and they happen to be playing a small/intimate $5 gig in Ann Arbor next weekend (see this link: https://www.facebook.com/events/1473225816227529/) as well as the Blowout. 

So, despite the "chance" they had a few years back, they are still rocking the garage, in the literal sense of the word... I, personally, love the band (one of my favs that came out of the Detroit "garage revival" of the early 00's).  

......I WON'T FORGET SOMETHING Damita (is it?) from L7 told me ( Not a fan , but , I met 'em twice , they were very nice people.).  She said "Yeah , we clawed our way to the middle.".

Sometimes , you may have more success with your band than expected , but , I think a majority of bands are not so delusional. They know it costs more to tour than they're likely to make doing gigs , and , possibly , selling merch , besides.  Some bands are too proud to take a "For gas money " gig on a weeknight. Even your big name Rock stars you may or may not care about are having to cut the costs wherever they can.

It's kind of funny how The Hentchmen got lumped in with this post - White Stripes Detroit (Area) Garage "Explosion". I first saw those guys in '90 or '91 , maybe.... If they had more success after they changed their sound, more power to 'em , they're great guys. I saw The White Stripes about 5 years before they made it. I thought they were competent Jeffrey Evans wannabees (But not as good at it as Knoxville Girls.) , but , I could'nt have foreseen their success.

What's amusing is , I saw Steve Miller and Tesco Vee promoting their book , "Detroit , Rock City" (Yeah , you should buy it.). Miller said he happened upon  flyer for a "GARAGE !!!!" show in Chicago , and said "Hey ! We started this ! "(Umm..no , it started in the Northwest while Elvis was in the army .)......Yeah , Detroitland had The Hentchmen , 3-D Invisibles , Gories , Snake - Out , etc. , when the only Garage band happening in Chicago was The Cunts , and they only played private parties to assembled groups of 10 or more. But , as far as that later stuff is concerned , much of what I've heard from Detroit AND Chicago , in recent years , does'nt sound very Garage at all.     However , I had to tell Miller , when he said there's always been a rivalry between our cities , I said , on the contrary , I think there's always been a camaraderie between us.

You can buy it pretty cheap on Amazon.

Hm, I hadn't even heard of it, but I'll definitely check it out. It sounds really interesting.

currently listening to lots of Mudhoney after reading their new bio. This song is aimed directly at Love- "why don't you blow your brains out too?" is one of the more obvious jabs in it. The whole record was an indictment of the Seattle scene, came out a year or so after Kurt's death.

Firstly, I would like to say this about Courtney: She was in Alex Cox's Sid and Nancy AND Straight to Hell (er, tho' that's not such a great film, but then S&N has it's faults).

Hole weren't that great, but then neither were Nirvana (Kurt was always bitter about Eddie Veder basically cos Ed got to sing on Hungerstrike and be in Green River v.2).

But she is wrong (sax is one of the horniest instruments, if played properly, and getting the horn is what it is about, after all that's what ROCKIN ROLL music is all about), but then as none of you have said the Stooges (Funhouse) or John Coltrane, I wouldn't be so quick judge (and yes I award myself 5 garage points for name dropping them)

People hate Courtney cos she got to suck Kurts dick and they didn't. If you watch Kurt & Courtney and see the interview with her dad, you'll quickly realise "Oh, that's why she's fucked up").

Courtney has made a career on saying shit and guess what, it's worked, if you talk about her, either positively or not, she wins.

And Bruce is only acceptable because Manfred Manns Earth Band did such a bitchin cover of BBTL.

That is all, you may return to your lives a better person for reading these words.

I GUESS i MISSED MY MARK....WHAT I MEANT WAS , HOLE WAS THIS CLOSE TO BEING....UM ....A RIOT GRRRRRL BAND . CHOSING TO PLAY BADLY. i DON'T TOTALLY HATE ALL THAT STUFF , BUT , AS LUTZ VIPINDERWOMAN POINTED OUT ,   Poly Styrene was truly innovative, she took on the Punk Rock Boy's club and won. There were others , Siouxzzzzzzzzz , Pauline Murray (Penetration) , Gaye Advert , and the lovely Fay Fife (AND , BY THAT , I MEAN , SHE'S JUST A LOVELY PERSON), and in America , Patti Smith , Poison Ivy , Lydia Lunch , Exene , Alice Bag , Penelope Houston and many others. But Courtney and Hole never went though what these bands had to endure.  Anyone ever hear Hole's first EP ? MAN , IT'S GODAWFUL. I certainly dont think Courtney pretends to be a feminist , but ,she must not be listening to her own music , or she'd know how bad it is......IT'S LIKE Chris Horne , from the late , great Brood , told me ,"They put us on bills with other female bands , but , that does'nt always work......It's like , these bands that put being women , first , over their music , you can't listen to them , they're that bad.".

After Curt died , it seemed like Hole was doing Nirvana retreads. Maybe they always were. 

Nirvana was the band to co - opt in the 90's , just as REM were the same thing  in the 80's.

Maybe Courtney is'nt putting her gender first , but sh edoes'nt know the first thing about Rock'n'ROLL. eVEN IF REAL Rock 'n'Roll with fat saxes is'nt your preference , you're only talking out of your ass when you make a statement like "Saxophones don't belong in Rock'n'Roll" . Big Jay Mcneeley is in his 80's, and so is Dave "Bubba" Mitchell , from Milt TRENIER'S BAND. They still know how to put on a SHOW. Do you think Courtbey cares about that?

To her , it's all about being a trainwreck in the public eye. Who cares ?

I shared song to the group. Will it go to the comp if you like it? chers

UPDATE: It appears that Soundcloud Dropboxes have disappeared... I guess they got rid of them? Anyway, this means we'll have to change the submission process a bit. We'll still use Soundcloud, but instead of our drop box, use this group I just set up:

Thanks!

Cool man, I'll check that out.

Yeah. For anyone who lives in or near Chicagoland , the new Thunders Documentary opens Saturday , May 3 at the Logan Theatre as part of the CIMM music/film festival. It threatens to be better than "Born To Lose". We will see. MY DUMB ASS AGREED TO PLAY A SHOW TWO HOURS LATE R, BUT, I may still be ableto make it. It's only 2 train stops from teh theatre.      Google CIMM .

Beautiful.  Freaking love the New York Dolls.  If I could play guitar like Johnny Thunders, my life would be complete.

I would like GG Allin better if he hadn't taken himself so damn serious.  I think he was a funny guy.  I would see him if he were still around today.  But the whole "rock n' roll messiah" thing was kinda dorky in my opinion.

Haha... Myspace.

This band is pretty great, unfortunately that and one other weird page are all I can find about them with Google.  Any place I can buy this stuff?  Get in touch with them or the label maybe?

My old friend, Bob Thurmond (a.k.a. Bob Noxious) used to host a podcast on GaragePunk.com called Snake Alley. He did 13 episodes of this show up through sometime in 2007. Bob passed away a couple of years ago and I'd like to find all of his old podcast episodes to preserve them on Archive.org. The problem is, the site where he originally uploaded them, Blip.tv., no longer hosts audio files and all of those episodes vanished.

If anyone happened to download these files and store them on a hard drive or load them onto a CDR or DVD, please let me know. I thought I had saved them, myself, but I can't find them now, although I'll keep digging around, too.

Thanks,

kopper

I STILL HAVE TO WORK TO FIND GOOD MUSIC ON THE INTERNET.....But , I agree , it's an essential comp. There's another one that came out later with a few extra tracks like "Are Everything"....It's called Trade Transmissions , I think. I've had the cassette for about 25 years , but , it probably came out on CD at the time , also....

Singles Going Steady by the Buzzcocks. Yes it's a compilation of their singles but every track is killer. It introduced me to their genius back in the pre-Internet days when you had to work to find good music.
