Of course you mean the 12" EP on Ready Records, right Pete?

The Snivelling Shits - I Can't Come (except the track 1.) I dommo if it's lesser knowm on the other country.
January 17, 2011 1:37 PM CST
I need many of these listed but I'm sure the majority are OOP.
Add in all the books/poetry and paintings and you'd swear the guy has to be twins or have a time machine or something.
January 17, 2011 7:54 AM CST
Hey Kopper, I know this list doesn't include any 7" or 12" records, but it's definitely worth mentioning that Billy Childish recently appeared in a new band, The Guy Hamper Trio, who put out a single on Damaged Goods Records in 2010.

That's good: Life won't get boring.

Hi Dave, If you in Europe you be pleased to know you can catch Cyril and Roy live in London on Sunday 24 April @ Le Beat Bespoke 7, cheers Rob

Detect a pattern here? Last time they played in Canada was 1978 and i didn't go to see them as i wasn't a huge fan. Now that i'm older (but definitely not wiser) and a HUGE fan of The Groovies AND Roy and Cyril are out doing shows, i gotta see them!! A-Bones are the perfect back up bands as Mirian was the Prez of The Flamin' Groovies fanclub for many years.
I did get to see Magic Christian (Cyril's new combo) about 2 years ago and that just whet my appetite even more for a real Flamin' Groovies show!!

Roky Erickson
? & the Mysterians
Von Lmo
Woulda put Jandek on this list but I got to see him a couple years ago.
January 17, 2011 8:34 AM CST
My wishlist would be.
The Who/High Numbers live @ Railway Tavern circa 64 set
Steampacket with Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & Rod Stewart
The Birds with Ron Wood Ali McKenzie and Tony Munroe

I have played for almost 30 years (you'd never know by hearing me play though) and pretty much have only played 60s/70s punk with a 5-6 year stint playing hardcore in the 80s. I have always played Ernie Ball Super Slinkys. They last, they're cheap and they sound good (trashy). The lighter the gauge the more trebly your guitar is going to sound - just something to keep in mind. I used to use a B string in place of my high E (always breaking it) but I gave that up a few years ago. It will beef up your sound.
I started taking lessons recently only because I wanted to learn some techniques/styles that were completely eluding me on my own. Other than that, I don't think that lessons are all that important.
January 17, 2011 9:50 AM CST
Yeah, heavier strings sound better on electric too. Fenders play heavier than other guitars. So if you like the feel of 11's on a Gibson, get 10's or an 11/10 custom gauge for the Fender. I like some of the custom gauges, but stock up, since those get discontinued without warning. As far as brand, Dean Markley, Ernie Ball and DR are all good names. And there's nothing wrong with skipping official lessons. Learn from your friends, and from playing along with awesome music.
January 17, 2011 5:08 AM CST
Hi!
I was always playing the cheapest strings I could get here in my town. Then I discovered that Thomann had Ernie Balls for pretty little money, and since I've heard of them back then, I now play those. Can't tell the difference in sound really, but they last longer than the cheap ones, and maybe they sound clearer and more poewerful. But that may be wishful thinking.
For my acoustic guitar, I use the thickest strings I can get (.13) - this may hurt a bit, but my guitar sounds that much fuller and richer and louder and more powerful. With the electric guitar I'm not so sure if that's also the case. Maybe the specialists here know about that.
Cheers, Doc
January 16, 2011 10:41 PM CST
I've played guitar for 5-6 years, I've never taken lessons and it shows, I suck. Just wondering if some of the more knowledgeable players could tell me about certain strings to try out.
Cheers.

New episodes: Yup! Checking it out of course!
I need to call in, just need to get my shit together there....
Hideout Admin said:
I don't think there were any voice messages "collected" (as if I get that many to "collect" them, haha!) for Savage Kick that were not used... but hell, I could be wrong. That was a year and a half ago, so one or two may have slipped through the cracks. But it's not like I can't start collecting new ones, so CALL!

And don't forget to listen to the new episode here!
IDON MINE said:
Hey man, great to see you keeping the rolling, uhm, rolling.
Cool to see the voice mail line up! Also, is there a chance we get to hear some old voice messages collected for the now long gone savage kick 70? Where there even any? It would just be fun to listen in.
Questions over questions...
Hideout Admin said:
Call and make a request, leave a comment, tell me a joke, whatever! I might use it on an upcoming episode: 314-266-8472
And don't forget to check my blahg for the latest episodes!

Now if I could get that extra bass boost with an intact brightness from the mids along with that cardboard crunch I'd be happy.

I'm thinking you might actually save money by just getting a different cab. A 6x10 Silvertone cab is probably pretty rare. I built one for my 1484 out of pine from Lowes. I just stained the bare wood and put some polyurethane on it. I ordered a fender style grillcloth online. It looks pretty decent. I might put a picture up here sometime.
I used some 12" Eminence Legends because 1. I found them cheap on ebay and 2. supposedly they have a vintage Jensen/JBL vibe to them. I've never played through any vintage speakers so I couldn't tell you how they compare. They are very loud and clean. They don't really break much at all. They have good bass but are also pretty bright. They're just about right for the Silvertone as far as clean speakers go but are just a little too bright for my blackface Bassman head. They might continue to break in.
I think I'm going to build another cab and try to find some lower powered speakers so I can get that cardboard box sound you're talking about. I may try some tens.

Mardy Pune,
It's sounding more and more complex to me. I thought it would be as easy as doing a little math, matching ohlms, and soldering. I have looked at the speakers. I actually had to solder the wire back on one because it came undone. The speakers are wired in parallel. No transformers on the speakers as far as I can tell. One output transformer to 3 speakers. I am wondering if I should just find a tech that knows old amps. I don't want to get fried.
January 16, 2011 7:46 PM CST
Very true, Gareth! It's great that there's podcasts like the ones on here (Im not including me on this because I'm not all that great) that helps bring good music to our attention! I didn't realize the situation was like that in the UK though, I figured it was pretty much a US problem...
Gareth Brown said:
It's the same here in the UK! The majority of music media here exists to push mainstream music. I suppose the situation is best explained by a tune called 'We Fuckin' Hate The NME' by Thee Headcoats (the NME being a very popular trend setting weekly music paper here in the UK). I suppose there's been a moment for each of us where we've realised that we're just gonna have to search for the music we want to listen to.

It's sad, I live in such a shitty radio market, I didn't even know who the hell the Clash was until "Combat Rock" came out! No friggin' lie!!! Of course I dug it, but then I had to dig deeper and buy such classics as "London Calling" and their self-titled debut release!
Gareth Brown said:Hi - i'm new to The Hideout... very much enjoying all of your responses... For me it was listening to 'London Calling' by The Clash that first got me interested in all things punk/garage/r'n'r related!

Just wondering if anyone any of you trashy artists/graphicy people out there would be interested in putting together a cover for the You Got Good Taste Lux Interior anniversary podcast show????
Appreciate any offers thanks Mr A
