here's a good one for you ....

i dunno...i guess we have different ideas about what constitutes punk. THAT is the key word here - "garage PUNK hall of fame" not garage hall of fame - throw in that punk word & it's a whole other ball game. i know - can't have one without the other...i'm tired . out. Marko's Garage Gig said:

I agree, this discussion may have gone out. I wanted to point that out, but got a little soft on the approach. 60's Garage Punk, would you say is US based? I lean that way. Then came bands like The Stomachmouths and many others from all over the world following that glorious period of 1963-1967 in Garage Punk that I love.

i just want to add one more thing and then i'm done here- i thought this was garage PUNK hall of fame. these are all good/great artists, but some of them miss the mark. i love link wray, can't deny his contribution, but he's not garage PUNK. i mean, am i taking this too literally?

http://www.nervebreakers.com/mp3.htm This is a link to a site for a Dallas band called the Nervebreakers. You can listen to a live show that pretty much sums them up, but it doesn't seem to be in the correct order for some reason. They were a pretty cool band and they opened for the Pistols when they played the Longhorn Ballroom during their infamous US tour.

Has anyone found any cool live performances from bands they like online? I'll start first. My most recent finding was from a band called Red Car Wire. They have a pop punk sounds and if you want to see the video you can go to http://www.teen.com/channels/tv/index.vm?vid=d_9Yf_qJUb3mJDAJ5r1qvl4ZTroUHWgs Trevor umgd

Of course London Calling, Rocket to Russia and Cheap Trick's first album.

Wire - Pink Flag, the origin of the under one-minute song.

From the Nathaniel Mayer's myspace page: R.I.P. Nathaniel Mayer 1944-2008 It is with great sadness that we report the passing of our dear friend Nathaniel Mayer. After many months of complications and illnesses following a series of strokes, Nathaniel left us November 1, 2008. He will always be in our hearts. As soon as funeral arrangements have been made we will post the information here. I had the great pleasure to enjoy his awesome gig at the Funtastic Dracula Carnival in Valencia, Spain, in 2005. I met him also during the weekend and he was a great, fun guy. He partied along as anyone else from the crowd. He'll be sadly missed. Love and affection (not the house of correction!)

if come across anything, plz let me know....

yes i know, but i will want the video live in the 60s, not in a tv show, and not the official video... the same thing for sonics, seeds etc etc

try you tube, there is eagle never hunts the fly, talk talk and cherry cherr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKCl8cN90Kk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AT6ZJlmVuV0&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RzwvPk8Aqo&feature=related http://www.beyondthebeatgeneration.com maybe there are more there...

where can i find the music machine in the '60s in video?

Wierd on the 3 Volts power supply. Does it have a 'Wall Wart" Adapter socket or not?

It may use a Germanium Transistor which lots of the older Fuzz units used. The unit the Stones used on "Satisfaction" was a Gibson Maestro fuss pedal. Those are pretty easy circuits to copy.

I got a guy here in Auckland, New Zealand to build me a Maestro clone. He made a cross between the 1st and 2nd versions. It runs on 3volts dc which is weird but that's what they originally came out running on, 2 AA batteries. It sounds like the Fuzz from 'Satisfaction' but you can dial a bit more in if you want and get a really crazy sound out of it. The only other fuzz I'm after is a Mosrite Fuzzbrite, I have played the clone copies of them but really wanna hear an original one. What I really wanna know is what fuzz the Sonics used? or was it just the amps?

"Do you care, but believe that your comments don't matter much?"

Yes. The shows get recorded, then aired~ we listen, dance, enjoy and preserve the better ones. Any music "suggestions" I'd have aren't likely to fit in a GaragePunk box. But- back to the question, this comment doesn't matter much.

maybe they don't have anything to say......

well, i listen to all the podcasts at work and REALLY dig them all .but most of the time there is no time to leave comments, or for my part to say that a job is well done, is really pointless, you know what you do(a great job that is!).I know that most of my friends in greece also listen to most of the podcasts, but we never leave a comment. i never thought it would be frustrating...sorry. but as a listener to podcasts, i was led to the hideout!
and now that i am thinking of it, i guess it would be nice to get all the moral support possible...

I've noticed the comments have been picking up lately, Michael. During my show I've been inviting listeners to comment on the main site as well as encouraging them to join the Hideout. I suggest we (GaragePunk Podcasters) should all devote a small amount of time on our shows to persuade our listeners to give us some more feedback. But as I said, I have noticed more feedback lately.

I CARE!!!!!! I listen to the show religiously (since i dont believe in jeez-us) I love your show and your voice and all the badass tunes you spin that help me discover cool shit i would have never known about otherwise!! Maybe people are just busy. But i say unto you, dont go on feedback or comments alone, for those are only for those who have the time or gall! there are plenty of silent listeners im sure of it. for that is what listeners are best at....listening. so what does that make me??? I have no fuckin clue...all i know is i love your show and it makes me crazy!!! (the good kind)

From Japan, the Surf Coasters (guitarist can do Dick Dale like nobody's business) and the Whys (love the grass skirts).
From South of the Border, Sr. Bikini and Los Elaticos. (Side note: What's with South American Surf bands and Luchadore masks? Is there a reason? Am I missing a cultural connection?)
From the US: the Sir Finks, Satan's Pilgrims and the Volcanos.

Special plug to my hometown faves the Diamondheads and the Atomic Mosquitos!!!

AND, while they are NOT a surf guitar band, Southern Culture on the Skids always includes an original instrumental number on albums and shows that never fails to please.

thanks Mike, I did go through those episodes which was great coz I'd missed some of the early shows, but 'wolfman boogie' isnt the track I was looking for, I seem to remember (although this might be wrong) that it was a link wray tune with wolfman jack over the top, i'll keep looking/downloading, might have been on one cup o coffee....cheers tho Michael Kaiser said:

Are you talking about Wolfman Boogie Pt.II by Wolfman Jack & the Wolf Pack?

I played that on some episode of RadiOblivion. Don't know which one; I'm kinda dodgy about playlists. Not ever sure of what I have played exactly... That track would be somewhere on episodes 9 - 15. I have no idea what I played betwixt 5 and 15. Really need to go through those and write 'em down.

But, I digress. If that is the song yer looking for, it's available on the "Mondo Frat Dance A Go Go" disc on Arf Arf. Or, you can re-listen to all the RadiOblivion episodes; you probably should anyway.

Hope that helps.
