Right on man! Thanks for making these great shirts with my artwork! It's an honor! ..Can't wait to get one!!!

I don't get paid till next Thurs. but I will be ordering a Large. Then I shall wear it till it is threadbare.

Thanks to everyone who's bought a shirt so far! Keep them orders coming! I'm gonna keep posting stoopid comments to keep this post near the top of the page!!!!

I saw him several years ago with Boss Hog, he looked a little bored just playing rhythm guitar,not like the guy who's ready to jump out of his skin that we're used to seeing.I'm going to try to make it out to see him,the only problem is he's part of that festival deal and there is tons of filler(only my opinion).

Just saw Heavy Trash a few weeks back, KILLER show!!! Looked like the whole band was having a blast as was everybody in the place! Jon really dug the opening band, catl (killer 3 piece blues/punk outta Toronto) and was getting those cats drinks during their show....fun time had by all!!

you´re so right man. seems like everything he twanges turns to gold... lawrence galvan III said:

BLUES EXPLOSION shows are lined up between now and the fall on the east coast, and some west coast dates....can't wait!!

HONEYMOON IS OVER AND I NEED A PUSSY...

anyone know what John Spencer is up to right now? Heavy Trash is helluva cool motha fucka!

These tunes (versions) of Screaming Dead are pretty good! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rU6whvPxt1o

Some people also consider Lords of the New Church, The Mission/Mission UK and Dead Can Dance Gothic too.

Haven't seen any mention The Fields of the Nephilim yet or maybe they have. Basic shit goth rock. I'm sure someone likes them... maybe.

If ya wanna hear something a bit freakier try Diamanda Galás. Litanies of Satan or Plague Mass should help you sleep well.

The Desperate Twisters said "Or, check this dead cool thing : THE HOUSE OF WILD DELIGHTS #3 . He's another friend ours...but I'm not sure he's still alive too ! Fucking suicidal freaks !" Thank you Desperate Suckers ! See I'm still alive ! Well am I ? In the same "who switched off the light, it's so dark here now I feel like a mole wearing shades and I can't breathe anymore but I don't care coz I've already reached the depths of the well of misery and I know I'll never get out and I don't give a fuck coz I don't want to ever see the light again anyway"mood, you could chek THAT too. Have fun you handsome little black wearing creatures of the outside world ! p.s. : About THE SOUL DERVISH , haven't heard from him for a while... he's probably hanging swingin' on a rope in his moisty cave... Cheers !!!

Well, after going all WHO-ish with a 50 Watt Hiwatt plus matching cabs, I´ve recently found out that Solid State Amps can be way better than their reputation.
Currently I´m using some very rare, but neverthless pretty unexpensive Jennings amps (O-50, B-50 and J-100) from the early 70s. Although there´s not one single tube in them, you can crank them pretty much and they´ll crunch like an AC 30 (not too astounding, since Jennings himself IS the inventor of the AC 30).
When playing a tour with the great Jim Jones Revue, one of their Twin Reverbs passed out and guitarist Rupert Orton was pretty freaked to use one of these - but after two seconds he smiled again.
Plus, they do take EVERY pedal extraordinarily well.
I get my heavier crunch sound with an Orion Effekte Silverdrive (the clearest Overdrive I´ve heard thus far), plus some fuzz with wether my beloved Roadrunner Supersonic Fuzz or a Barber Trifecta or an Earthquaker Devices Hoof Fuzz. Reverb comes from an Earthquaker Devices Ghost Echo - one of the best Reverb pedals there is. It´s true.
Plus I play two Hollow Body Guitars - a Gretsch 5122 (the "Cheapo-Gentleman") with TV Jones PUs and - a Hoyer Cat - a korean take on an old german brand guitar.
It´s not an expensive setup, but that should never be the point, anyway. It just sounds darn freakin´good. To me.
And my two bands.

I have my Roadrunner Supersonic since 2005, when talking to the (now Ex-)Mooney Suzuki Guitarist Graham and he praised it over the moon. But really: It is indeed all the rave. The best sounding vintage fuzz unit there is. Plus the loudest, if wanted. Pricey, but as I dig the look and the sound since five years, toured and recorded with it - it´s worth every Euro. Or dollar. Or Yen. Plus: It´s not just Jon posing with a rather cool looking fuzzbox - he actually uses it. I´ve seen Heavy Trash a couple of times and there it was in all it´s beauty... The Barber Trifecta Fuzz comes pretty close, but is not that brutal as the Roadrunner, its more vintage, but really great. I´d recommend that one, too. If you wanna go all Black Keys, check out the Earthquaker Devices Hoof as well. I have all three pedals but keep coming back to my Roadrunner thing. FREDDI said:

Anyone heard about a France built fuzz by Roadrunner,and called Supersonic?
It is "sponsored"by some garage players as Billy Childish,DM Bob,Mooney Suzuki,Jon Spencer.

This trade makes lots of non-conventional shape guitars and basses too..

Ooops, I meant SOUL CHARGE !!! "Go go power" by Sugar Pie deSanto seems a good bet too. As well as "Tell mama" by Etta James of course !

HOT SLOP !!!

And what about stupid podcasters from the Voodoo Dimension of Wild Delights trying to speak and yell English/American when they can't even speak properly their own native language ?!?!?

Oh shit...I feel sorry for your ears now...

wow... really? I've never seen the words 'tasty' and 'liver' in the same sentence... Matt said:

I had some tasty livers at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles last week...

I like my kidney's. You can have my liver... it smells kinda rotten at the mo tho...

he should put a teabag in it and make it worthwhile.

whoa! yer blood boils?? I would see a Doctor about that, it sounds fucking horrible! ratoonie said:

i never would have thought that when i joined this site that i would have this kinda shit in my face....Comparing Gang music to garage music is like comparing heaven to hell....when im forced to hear Rap ..my blood boils as if i were in hell!!!!

Apperently it should have been Cold Crush Brothers or Cassanova Fly who should have recorded Rapper's Delight. http://www.oldschoolhiphop.com/features/rappersdelight.htm Ryan Katastrophe said:

Well...Malcolm Mclaren, manager of the Sex Pistols, is somewhat of an early pioneer in rap music. I always thought it was interesting that Sylvia Vanderpool Robinson of Mickey & Sylvia was responsible for Sugar Hill Records and releasing the Sugar Hill Gang record.

P.S. I dig rap.
