    • In my expeirience I think the hospitality you get on the continent is second to none, Belguim, France, Italy and Spain in particular. Here is an example, On my arrival I was picked up from the Airport, taken for something to eat, then to my hotel, then collected from the hotel in the evening and taken to the venue, via a visit to a restuarant for dinner, the following night I was taken out again for something to eat, then picked up from the hotel in the morning and taken back to the airport. My Flight, Hotel, food and drinks were all paid for, plus they paid me for doing it. Going through some of the reply's on this thread, someone did mention that it depends on who the organisers are. The weekender I am involved. I have taken on board the way I was treated as stated above and we have decided to do our best to set a standard of hospitality. I think if the organisers are DJ's themselves and have done a fiar stint over the years, then they have an understanding of what effort is made to entertain crowds, as we know its not just about turning up with a box of 45s is it. BTW A GOOD TOPIC TO BE DISCUSSED

    • I hit reply by mistake....The Plastics (80'S NEW WAVE) , SHEENA AND tHE ROCKETS (same), The Stalins ( Punk.80's , still active ?)

    • It's been a while , but I'd still recommend Mescaline Drive , a 80's - 90's (?)  all - Female Psych/Garage / Pop / Punk kinda band . A guy in Japan was nice enough to tell me about their current offshoot band , their name escapes me , now.

       Sleez Sisters - All Female , 90's , Punk .ONE 45 ON SYMPATHY with a version of "Sick on You" by The Boys and a great "Theme song". Holds up pretty well.

      Sledge Hammer (80's?) - Surely the only Japanese skinhead band to cover "Merry Jingle" , the Christmas medley recorded by key members of Thin Lizzy and The Sex Pistols as The Greedies.

      70'S -VODKA COLLINS , Glam , fronted by roundeye gai - jinius , Allan Merrill (He wrote "I Love Rock'n'Roll". Joan Jett still owes him one. ).

      60's - Yuzo Kayawa - Spearheaded the "Eleki" movement ( Influenced by Surf and The Ventures.)  , movie soundtracks , even Garage and Psych . Considered one of the true forefathers of Japanese Rock'n'Roll. Still active.

      Group Sound ( Garage /Psych and Pop sung in English and Japanese) - Spiders , Tigers , Golden Cups , Playboy , Carnabeats , Dynamites ( Also with Allan Merrill), Outkast (yes.) , Mops , Beavers , Swing West , Voltage ,. A ZILLION OTHERS.

    • Dead Boy,

      Thank you so much for this!  I'm going to try to order it through diskunion, and, if that doesn't work out, I'll try to contact them via myspace to see if I can purchase some merch from them directly or find out if they plan to come to the USA for a tour!

      Hi.

      I know nothing about that band, but I just found these record shops which sell their CD.

      The Disc Union  (It's a big record shop.)  They have some MP3 samples.  If you can buy it from their, you may get a bonus limited edition CD only for the Disc Union which includes unreleased tune(s) (about 15 minutes).

      Happyend (I haven't bought anything from their.)  If you can buy it from their, you may get their badge.

      http://e-happyend.sakura.ne.jp/blog/2011/06/_s_gos.html

      But I don't know if they can accept international orders. :/

      They have:

      If you can't buy it, ask me.  I'll ask a friend of mine who runs a record shop.  If he can special order it, I think he can sell and send it to you.

    • I'm bumping this thread, as it is relevant to my interests.  Yesterday, I just discovered The Mercies and The Captains, and am on my way to owning merchandise for them.

    •      That's too funny. I still think the funniest instance of hot (NOT!!!!!) tidy whitey action on stage was when I saw The Damned , I think , in 1997. Of course , The Cap'n was known for lettin' the ol' boy out  , from as far back as the first U.S tour in '77 (With The Dead Boys) . But , at this gig , he was down to his not - so - tidy whities, toward the end of the show ("Make 'em beg"). They were hangin' so low on him , he could have had a hammock - stuffing contest against Felix and his Amazing Underpants , AND WON !  But , WHEN THE SHOW WAS OVER , INSTEAD OF GOING BACKSTAGE (There was'nt really a backstage entrance from the stage , itself.), He just lept off the stage , still in his underwear , until , predictably , a female fan yanked them off. He carried on , smiling , shaking hands , giving people the "Thumbs up" sign , going , "RIGHT , CHEERS! BRILLIANT ! NICE ONE !".

      ......OH , AND THEY TELL ME OF THIS BAND CALLED NAZ NOMAD AND tHE NIGHTMARES.  THEIR REISSUE IN THE 80's OUTSOLD HALF THE EVA CATALOGUE AND "PEBBLES VOL. MCXVIII . Vatican City Lashes Back.". DAMNED if it did'nt.

    • Yeah, I went to Keene State College in Keene, NH and was heavy into the garage scene of the early 80's.  There was a great record store in Lowell, Mass that I bought a ton of great stuff from in those days, can't remember the name. Maybe it was RRR Records and Nashua had a great little store for my garage jones, you dig.  Lyres, Prime Movers, Plan 9.Saw about every great show in Boston duing 83-88.  Awesome times!!!!!

      Boston Paul said:

      "old timers"?  Well, aren't you just the cutest little thing!?  Growing up in Boston, Lyres were my favourite band by a wide margin at least 10 years before I heard the phrase "Garage" or "Garage revival".  They were just the best rock'n'roll band in town or any town.  Also loved the Malarians.

    • Was a huge Kurt fan and saw them many many times. Saw Smeggys cock more times than I'd like to admit! Gigs were always messy, it started as a spoof of Alien where one of the band 'exploded' and sent entrails everywhere. Sheeps lungs were a favourite apparently as they were very messy! This all progressed to flower and water in various colours and eggs and bags of flour. Then there were the snakebite drinking competitions, firstly a bucketful through a funnel, this progressed to being pumped through, then the 'wheel of misfortune', basically strapped to a wheel and spun, snakebite, spun, cocks out, spun drink, vomit etc. Saw them once where they had the 'flying wires' used in theatres attached to people, snakebite, up, down spin round, repeat until vomit! Then there was the 'slammers' night(to promote the single of the same name) where all but two contestants ended up in hospital, cant remember if there were eight or ten involved but my mate Stef(RIP) was one who didn't end up in hospital! Carrying a 14 stone drunk across London underground was not fun.

      Id seen the advert for the Wigs JB but couldn't get it anywhere, we had quite a good record shop in the town at the time but Media Burn was quite hit and miss as to what you could get.

      I never got the Cramps and psychobilly connection which is what I was trying to say earlier, garage was a word that seemed to get added later on here, people didnt think of it as a garage scene as such, apart from Mike Spenser, who is American anyway. Garage always seemed a more American term to me at the time.

      Well, they got down to their tidy whiteys (not all of 'em) once when I saw them. And after being covered in sweat and flour, it didn't leave a lot to the imagination.

      Hmmm. No whipped cream when I went, but beer, sweat, and flour isn't a really good combination. Glue is the right way to put it. The crowd was mostly male and prone to jumping around and into each other. Good time had by all!

      I give that band an awful lot of credit for putting the FUN into a music scene that took itself way too seriously. Extra points to KK for their insanely good times.



      John Battles said:

       GETTIN' THEIR WEDDING TACKLE OUT  , huh? It's more than most bands will do. A friend of mine , who'll remain nameless , we'll call him "Bill" . He used to go see them and said he came home , once , covered in flour and other crap like whipped cream that was being projected from the floor and the stage, he said it basically turned to glue , and He had to sneak back in the house without Mum and Da seeing the state of his clothes.
       
      melissa scott said:

      *larf* Yeah, as long as you didn't mind sometimes gettin' covered in flour when you got too close to the stage. They were loud! And known to get their kit off. Not that I complained...



      John Battles said:

      Yes , it was around that time , I was beginning to wish I lived in England , so I could see my countrymen , The Cramps.   By the time I COULD see them , I'd been a fan for almost 10 years.   IT SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS THIS WHOLE NEW SCENE GOING ON , BUT , I KNEW THAT , BY THE TIME I'D FOUND OUT ABOUT IT , IT WAS COMING TO AN END......

      I did'nt hear The Cramps' influence in the Psychobilly bands , which is fine , I just kept reading and hearing about "Cramps copyists" . I think The Cramps' frequent sojourns to Blighty motivated some of the changes taking place in The UK music scene , even if  Paul Fenech and others still deny it..      BUT ,  WHAT ABOUT KING KURT?  I HEARD THEY WERE HILARIOUS , LIVE.

      I was around the London scene at that time, Hoodoo Gurus were the kings for me !!! Always loved the Cramps, Stems and The Prisoners, Long Ryders also played some great shows in that period. Always felt Milkshakes, Cannibals, Turkey Bones, Guana Batz et al were not very good, no memorable songs but the gigs were always a drunken laugh :)

    • 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.

      Hi Tim,

      Cheers, Coop

      Came across a band called Boneyards recently who are from Brighton, England, and they sound REALLY good. I think they sound sort of garagey punk, trashy, lofish with a pleasant hint of surf.

      Check them out!

      I'd be interested to hear what people think.

      Think they are pretty new and I only came across them because they are listed as support for Ty Segal who i'm seeing next week.

      By the way this is exactly the sort of thread that I love this site for. Mmmmmm new bands!

      Although some peoples definition of new is a bit.... well.... old... but I'll stop myself there so I don't become a meany.

    • There is a bunch of cool new bands. I particularly love the Tough Shits, Natural Child, Barrerracudas, Gentleman Jessie, Cozy (new powerpop/glam band on Hozac) Warm Soda (Matthew Melton's new band). Also, Puerto Rican garage like Davila 666 & Los Vigilantes is really great.

    • My daughter turned me on to BLOOD RED SHOES. They make an incredible amount of noise for a two-piece Think the Strokes meets th' Faith Healers. Their albums have been in heavy rotation in my house for the last 9 months. http://youtu.be/sob1cUVd-vE 

      She also is a big fan of a chick who's almost like the female Lou Reed--Regina Spektor who actually played at the White House for Barack Obama (!?) 

      Just saw an incredible show with THE INSOMNIACS, HOUSE OF FIRE (psych) and CONSOLIDATED FUZZ (60's garage)

    • Recently I discovered this great garageband, with some stonerrock mixed in, from France: Kaiser Bitnik.

    • Buzzzzzz Jimmy Gordon is one of my fave 45's, a great surf fuzz instrumental!
