thats my point actually. In a nutshell. Its my up growing to punk music. Covering huge stuff outside punk defenition fence. I was sort of greaser, a pre-punk if you please. This is my soundtrack from that period and beyond. I really loved teddy boy rock and roll, rolling stones, yardbirds n all the brit blues pub rock glam whatever. Forefathers for the 77 punksters. Think Richard Penniman. Being the punkiest of them all. 77 was kind of in the middle of all this. Thats just my own way of punkin'

A few years ago I got totally bored with guitar music and started to discover Dubstep and related electro-stuff, and I thought "Well, that was that with me as a guitar guy", when I discovered "In Blood" by Billy Childish and Holly Golighty, and I'm lost to primitive garage rock ever since.

But I like to believe that what started my love for music was a The Who tape my father recorded for me when I was five or six years old. Don't know if I remember this correctly, but I like the story.

It's amazing what the Cramps brought us, ya know?  Link Wray, Hasil Adkins, a lot of necessities in real music to say the least!

yeah makes total sense.Looking at it now, without link wray,I wounder what The Cramps would have sounded like?
It wasn't until I picked up a album by wray that I relised poison ivy's stlye of playing comes from the man himself and she used it wisely I must say.

I know what you're saying Wayne, just like you can't really classify the Animals as "garage"...To most music historians, garage started with surf music and Link Wray, then when the British Invasion hit, you had all these bands trying to emulate these groups, yet (to me anyway), sounding not as good, but better because it was so "punk" (hope that makes sense)...1966 is "Ground Zero" for what we know as the beginning of "garage rock", but if you go back and listen to Link Wray, you wonder, it's like it was garage before it was garage, like garage was punk before there was punk...I hope I'm makin' sense...And still to this day, I'll take '60's Stones over any decade they have been in existence...

For me It was hearing louie louie by the kingsmen when I first watched quadrophenia when I was 15, but it took a good five years to get realise that the records that were popping up was this creature called garage,but where does garage start?

Some say ? and the Mysterians, but could you call the kinks, the Who the Rolling Stones garage, they got classed as mod I know but they influenced a lot of garage bands, infact every garage band 

That Bay City Rollers tune is a good one, my favorite by them is "Yesterday's Hero"!  And once it gets in my head, I can't get it out!  Like now... :)

Blitzkreig Bop without a doubt. I bought it in 1976, I think the single I bought before that was Rock N Roll Love Letter by the Bay City Rollers so maybe that was the one :)

Wow!  No, can't say I had a garage band play at my wedding!  Great memories indeed!  Another "brush with fame" moment I had was when I was in Norfolk, VA at the Taphouse for a show...Thee Apostles, the Rats, the Needles, and a couple of others were there, and I was there to do a "Whiskey 'N' Waterbeds" show there..Well, my co-host was waaay to fucked up, some equipment got stolen (including my fucking 80 gig ipod), but I was able to hang out with the Needles for beers...but I also hung out, drank with, and did shots with none other than Steve Baise formerly of the Devil Dogs!  He was at the time in the band the Villains, and he had contacted us about meeting up and maybe getting in on the interviews...I was like, "THE STEVE BAISE"?!?!?!?!  Well, since the taping of the show got flushed down the shitter, it was still cool to hang out with a legend like Steve, talk music, and drink like we were old college buddies (along with the Needles)...the guy was a class act!

For me having a long drink & chat with Graham Day backstage after a gig in Dublin. I had met him a couple of years before this but was starstruck and didn't know what to say to him so I just got a photo. So glad that when I did finally get the courage to chat to him,  he turned out to be really nice and interesting as well.

Also met and hung out with The Revellions in Spain when they were recording their first album. Really nice guys.

But the biggest stars in my eyes are The Keepers from Belfast, who became friends after I had booked them to play here on the Isle of Man and they even returned to play my wedding a couple of years later free of charge!

Anyone else on here had a garage band for their wedding? It certainly clears the place of all the old folks but gives you truely a day you never forget.

 

No, they didn't, but when I did a podcast that night, I did!  Anyways, they did do "Theme From Vindicators" and Keith and Ken walked around on top of the bars, playing in unison, even walking around in the audience, while Bill played drums...It was so surreal!  I love that tune, and for them to just jump off the stage with their guitars and walk around and play...?!?!?!  THAT was SO amazing!!!

Did the Fleshtones play Blowjob???!

Did the Fleshtones play Blowjob???!

The best night of my life came back in 2008 when I went to Arlington, VA to see the Fleshtones play at the Iota Club.  Being that I have loved these guys since I was a teen, it was a no-brainer that I along with my co-host of "Whiskey 'N' Waterbeds" at the time, would make it a road trip!  At the club, I hung out with Ken Fox beforehand and talked music, then I was able to speak briefly with Bill Milhizer and Keith Streng!  I thought that was awesome enough!  When they took the stage, it of course was amazing, especially since I had never gotten to see them live before!  What was even more amazing, was Peter Zaremba and Keith Streng pulled me onstage to pluck away on Keith's guitar during an instrumental!  I don't play guitar, but Peter convinced me that all I had to do was strum during this instrumental they were performing....I nearly fainted!  After the show, I got to hang out with Peter Zaremba and talk casually like we were old friends, plus get a cd autographed, get my pic taken with the guys (except Keith, he vanished), and walk away with their Sharpie scrawled set list that Peter used!  Second, I would have to go with the only time I had gotten to see Southern Culture On the Skids at a bar and grill here in town...Both Mary Huff and Dave Hartman are from here (Roanoke, VA), and you would think they would play here more, but they don't...Before the show, I was able to talk briefly with Dave, and afterwards, he autographed (along with Rick Miller) a cd I bought at the show.  Then I went to get Mary's autograph, and the sweetheart she is, invited me to sit with her in the booth she was lounging in...I had e-mailed them previously about remembering when Mary was in a local punk band and they did a commercial for a local indie record shop called "Penguin Tracks", and we had a good laugh, plus talked a little about the punk scene, got her autograph, and a kiss on the cheek (!)...  Lastly would have to be hanging out with Jeff Clayton of ANTiSEEN.  When I was still on "Whiskey 'N' Waterbeds", we landed an interview with him, and got in his good graces when the local music reporter from the newspaper did a shitty job with his Q & A...I brought him some moonshine, got his autograph (along with the band on a cd), and his address (so I could send him some burned cd's of some stuff he was interested in hearing)...Not long after, took on a roadtrip to Charlotte, NC to the Milestone Club to see a show, and he happened to be there.  Well, I had brought along some Grade A apple pie moonshine, so me, my former co-host, Jeff, and Jeff Williams of Charlotte based hardcore band "The Dead Kings" went out to the car and drank that whole jar of 'shine together!  Nice memories, indeed!  So what's yours?

I had the pleasure of seeing them at a non festival show last year and they tore the place apart. More energy and passion than most bands I have seen recently.

I can only imagine how crazy their gigs used to be back in the day.

By the way, have you heard about that :

Yep, pretty addictive indeed !

I'm taking a sonic trip through the podcasts these days and it suits my present state of mind quite well (whatever that means !).
