So is today the big day fer vol. 7?

i hate it, but i'm going to go ahead and use this as an oppurtunity for shameless self=promotion! i play in a sludgy, reverb-drenched, garage band...here's the link to our bandcamp, i think there's everything we've released on tapes here.."under the stairs" was recorded on 4track - i hope it scratches your itch! http://magicshadows.bandcamp.com/track/under-the-stairs-4-track-demo

hey all,

I've been part of this two piece band since Thanksgiving last year and in that time i've realized two things: around here a lot of the hip and cool places to play are usually bars and that booking shows anywhere else usually means the shows are far apart and that we'll be playing with bands who's music is pretty different than the garage rock/punk we play. and since i'm still 20 and my drummer is 19, that severely limits where we can play.

One idea i've been having is to just rent out a banquet hall or something between 2-4 bands and just playing there with our friends and have a little party/show.

Thing is, i'm not sure where to start. I'm sure there are some of you who've had experience with DIY shows and whatnot, so i thought we could share some tips or ideas or stories here.

any wisdom from your veteran players out there would be especially helpful.

Like never.

But my wife is tolerant, and I do rule the garage, so that's OK.

There is'nt , but for the same reason some people say "Elvis Presley or Elvis Costello?" , some folks feel a need to make that distinction.....I don't LOATHE Bocephus , but, he does'nt do anything for me , either...."Hank III" , I SAW ONCE , EXPECTING A GREAT COUNTRY SHOW , BASED ON GLOWING REVIEWS (THAT IS , WHEN HE WAS'NT DOING AN AXL ROSE, and splitting after 10 minutes .)....If he wanted to do some Punk Rock , too , that was all right by me... Instead , he did this HORRIBLE  Sub - Rage Against The Machine/Ministry (Minus the drum machines, at least.) set that  never waivered in it's suckiness , with genius lyrics like "If you don't like our Hillbilly Punk Rock.....FUCK YOU !!!". THE GUYS IN HIS BAND WERE VERY NICE . iT JUST WAS'NT COUNTRY or Punk , Nor anything I needed to hear. I've no doubt he does good shows when he wants to , but that put me off , pretty much for good....

I'm probably more forgiving towards Hank Jr. than most people (and I'm still on the fence about Hank III), but even so...there is no need to put the word "Senior" in front of Hank Williams' name.

 I used to meet people in my own neighborhood with similar tastes.....But , we had a great record  store , which helped.Now , there's no small business , because the University (Fuck you , Loyola.) has taken over everything , no sense of community. It's all college students. I don't begrudge them , but , it's a REALLY square environment. Even Goths or Hot Topic Punks ARE A RARITY .....a FEW YEARS BACK , THO' , I was making some flyers , at a Kinko's driven out by Loyola , TWICE , when a young guy asked me if I knew about THE (fIRST) Nuggets box set. He asked if I thoughthe should buy it.....I said , yes , because it took years for me to find those songs , and now you and I can have them all, with GOOD sound.......I told him , he's lucky to be around now , when there's so many great re-issues . Then he asked me if I liked Hank Williams , Sr.    I told him ,there's only ONE Hank Williams.

Thanks!

Nice.

Hope you are okay.

Hello everybody!

I'm Kekka from Finland, been a record collector more than 30 years. Been singin' & playin' on few different rock'n'roll/rockabilly bands. First band started '78. I collect all kinda roots music mainly from 50's to early 60's... stuff before them "fab four".

(http://www.myspace.com/rockin8balls) We're planning to get on gigs again with rockin' 8-BALLS...

(here's 1 of my projects: http://www.facebook.com/pages/SPUDNNICK-The-Roughshods/164103173676854 )

Dave: It was a rockin' show here in London On too!!  Rudi hooked up with a real young girl at the show here, Jailbait by Andre Williams springs to mind!!

dave machine said:

Yeah, have to agree with whatwave dave, I saw the fuzztones in Waterloo On around the same time at the City Hotel, and it was a rockin' show. I have the album, Live in Europe on  Right Side Records and Fringe, and  I still like it. Don't be ashamed John, some of us don't give a shit about the poliitics, we just remember a good time and still rock out to your tunes. I do remember someone in the "scene" of the time complaining about the singer coming on to their girlfriend. So he's a womanizer, no shortage of them in the world. Act accordingly.

Sorry John, couldn't resist, but here's a picture of John C as a Fuzztone in London Ontario Canada 4/5/87 in the Fuzztone uniform!!  And it was a great show that night too!!

Don't go getting so hung up on the obscurities that you forget the hitmakers. If you're going to do a documentary on the genre, the Gentrys and the Castaways are just as important as Ned Nobody & the Never Heard Of. Maybe more, since they were more visible (and audible).

Well, to be done right, it would have to be enormously comprehensive. With thousands of garage bands sprouting up all over the world from '65 thru '67, it would be quite a task. The best way to go about it would be to do a series of documentaries and focus on regional scenes, such as Texas, the Pacific Northwest, Michigan, Australia, etc. Sort of like how the later volumes of the Pebbles comps were focused.

CHARLIE DON'T SURF!

John- That's true, I think most of us want to know that we're fighting the good fight, and you can't mass-market cool (not to toot our horns, ahem ;) There are still people out there who are shocked by the ideas contained in punk songs.

HE WAS RIGHT , OF COURSE , BUT PEOPLE THINK ROCK'N'ROLL HAS BEEN GENTRIFIED....

ONLY THE CRAPPY , STREAMLINED STUFF HAS BEEN.....LIFE HAS A WAY OF REMINDING US THAT ROCK'N'ROLL IS STILL OUTSIDER MUSIC , AND , I THINK MOST OF US PREFER IT THAT WAY.....

dID'NT sPLODGENESS aBOUNDS ALSO DO THE "tWO pINTS AND A pACKET OF cRISPS" or whatever , song , too? ....It seems I saw different versions on TV and in the movies in the mid - to late 80's. I remember being surprised to see Invisible Sex , English Beat , Splodgeness Abounds ,  and Chelsea when I saw it on the big screen....BUT , i THINK THEY SHOWED IT IN IT'S ENTIRETY AROUND THE SAME TIME , ON CABLE.......I only taped a few bands , at the time...You've got to remember, blank video tapes were at least about $6 in '86 ,when I first started using a VCR in earnest..

HERE ON MY BUS , i'M NOT SAFE HERE AT ALL...MY  TIRE GOT STUCK IN A MANHOLE, "THANK YOU , NORTON " , THAT'S ALL.....
