Atomic Suplex and Theee Bat if they haven't been listed yet. 

Some of my favorites: The Cheater Slicks, the Gories, the Mummies, Magnitude 3 (from Japan), the Go Devils (Japanese girl band), Andre Williams (Silky LP), the Sonics, Thee Headcoats, the Bassholes, Pussy Galore, Demolition Doll Rods, Supercharger, the Oblivians, Thee Bat, Atomic Suplex, etc... I could go on and on.  There's lots of great trash rawk waiting for you to unearth it!

The bad times, the Chrome cranks, cheater slicks, and the rat traps.

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.

I really need to find a way to control the vocal reverb from the stage. In the past, I have used a reverb pedal but I can't remember what I was using. Any suggestions? I want a pedal; I don't want to go the asshole musician route and use a rack mount anything. The cheaper the better (like Electro Harmonix cheap).

Also want some lo fi trashy vocals. I have always used an old Shure bullet mic but just can't get the volume I need without it feeding back like a beast. Really need that trashy sound but the Shure is out. I'm thinking that maybe a pedal is the way to go with this as well, so I can maintain the volume without feedback (I have a DI box to connect to so it can easily go out to a PA). Maybe an overdrive? Any experience with these?

The crowds will always be there to see the trendy bands (flavour of the moment, indy or whateverthefuck you call that trash) so what i've done the last 2 years, is get bands i like to play at record store day events. It gives them a little bit of exposure and a few people usually end up digging the bands. It's about the only way i can get kids out to see the bands i like....i'm old but refuse to give up...hahaha

I like going to record stores on any day BUT Record Store Day.  The crowds are ususally there for bands that I don't care about and the stage is usually at the vinyl section (which is never discounted on this day anyway).  I just find it a hassle.

I met someone on myspace 6 years ago who spent almost all ten years of the 60s in Vietnam so he was mostly just familiar with what he heard on Armed Forces radio.  He spent the 70's through the 90's listening to a bunch of corporate stuff but in '98, he specifiacally asked for a copy of the Nuggets boxset for Christmas wanting to start a collection of 60s music that he missed when being overseas.  Since then, he's also collected other garage rock collections and revival bands as well as 70s and 80s punk bands.  Only band he didn't like was the Mummies.  Oh well.

I think the key is too unhealthy to rock as G. Wood says below...age seems to have little to do with good musical taste or the ability to rock at any age! I just turned 55 and if anything, i'm getting more and more into this as my kids are now older and i've given up trying to get them into rock'n'roll.

I'm 57, for another few weeks. I've been rocking since I was about 10, I guess, the breakthrough moment was Meet the Beatles. My band, Undercover Bonobos, was on Hideout comp #3. There may come a time when one is too old, or maybe too unhealthy to rock, but I'm not there yet, just completed a series of recordings with my 58 year old drummer, and a youngster in his 40's.

Meeting someone who was into punk never use to be a problem.  Finding someone who was into garage punk only happened at shows or specific record stores. Now it's never.

It's an absolute shock if I do.  Rarely ever happens, and happens less as I get older.

I used to write for a Greenwich based magazine and I interviewed Michael Graves from The Misfits, which I'll post up on here if anyonre asks.

Huzzah! Thank you, respondant!

Hi, we're Dead Nachos from Toulouse, France.

We've just changed our identity from Buenos Nachos Taco Grande to simply Dead Nachos after having sent to hell our drummer and bass player. We're back with two new members, a couple of new recordings. Check them out on our page if you're curious.

We play wild rock n roll, somewhere between The Cramps and French band Les Wampas, with a surfesque touch sometimes. Just let us comments if you appreciate. If not, go and meet our former members in some rotting place.

yeah we dress up......if you're gonna be a band, then look like a band

peaceloveandrock'n'fuckin'roll.....trigger

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.

Surf's up again :):):)

Mr. A, please continue to post your show updates in this thread. Thanks!

I have a blog called Revolution Rock.  Its a blog that usually has two things to offer music and music profiles.  The blog is a source to download and podcast a radio program that I do on CJAM FM in Windsor/Detroit that focuses on 60s garage, 70s punk/new wave, indie and alternative music genres.  Every week I feature a post on a different band or several different bands.  Following the post about a band i will post a play list to my radio show/podcast that can be downloaded.

Hope you like it i've been doing it for a while now:

Thanks, Jeff. Episode 7 will be done by next week at most.
