I've finished uploading all 22 episodes of The Mal Thursday Show and all 42 installments of Florida Rocks Again! to the Hideout. I've added new graphics, label shots, and vintage garage band pics to spice things up a bit. Stop on by and download 'em all! THE MAL THURSDAY SHOW on the GaragePunk Hideout:

Good to know. Thanks. kopper said:

Most (except for maybe a handful) of our shows are actually on Blip.tv, and some of the more recent ones are either there or Mevio.com (some are on both). That's where they're uploaded and stored. So even when the blog goes away, you'll still be able to find most of them there.

If the archives can at least stay up for the next year, that’d be great and helpful. There’s so much I’ve missed when not having home internet. Thanks.

Hopefully past show will still be up? There's been times when I've been without the internet at home and haven't been able to listen and am only NOW trying to catch up. Also hopefully, it'll be metioned in Latest Activity when you upload? As I've actually not subscribed to anyone yet.

The main feed (the one with all the shows) is going away, as is the GaragePunk.com blog. The 'casts are moving over to the Hideout, but now you'll have to subscribe to each show individually.

Hi, I might be out of the loop but I've been noticing these messages lately: PLEASE NOTE: This will be the final episode of the Mal Thursday Show that is posted on the GaragePunk.com blog. As of January 2010, you’ll find Mal’s podcast posted on his blog at the GaragePunk Hideout. If you would like to continue receiving his podcast, be sure to subscribe to his show’s feed using the link below, and/or befriend him on the Hideout. Thanks! I read a similar message from the "Get Drunk and Play Records" blog, too. Are podcasts getting the axe? What's happening?

St. Louis has a few good ones: Vintage Vinyl, Euclid Records and Apop Records (the last one is definitely the most "underground" of the three... it's very similar to Goner Records in Memphis).

Since they invented cd's, I've been getting into different styles of music.

Don't know if you'd call it obscure, but the Goodbye Babylon 6-cd boxset of fire & brimstone pre-war gospel is amazing - especially the sermons (over the songs).

Sublime Frequencies releases are on my list too, especially the Middle Eastern and African ones, and the frog song on the Singapore-A-Go-Go cd sounds like some Jamaican dub thing.

Speaking of Africa, for some reason, I really like Pekos/Yoro Diallo (which reminds me of Capt Beefheart) and Tinariwen, although some people say this stuff sounds like Santana.

I'm not a fan of "Tak Tak punk" or "myspace crust" which is where someone in Malaysia, or somewhere else on myspace, has heard Agnostic Front or whatever, and does a straight up imitation with nothing to add. Probably the internet's fault, right?

hi everyone! its me your old freind JIM CARROLL. just a quick note from beyond the grave (using my good freind WARREN'S body as a host) to say dont worry, stay in school, and im fine here with princess Diana and the baby Jesus. also before i forget. God asked me to pass a message on (thats God! as in never wrong God.) "mclusky are the best band ever!" i know, could have said anything,but this being the ultimate, spout what ever shit you want . if i have one thing to tell the world. then like i say "MCLUSKY the best band ever ."

The Apemen from the Netherlands (i think), Satan's Pilgrims, Phantom Surfers and The Mummies did some pretty cool instro-thrash.

Excellent! Smash it up tonight! Jannell said:

Ah man AWESOME suggestions guys. These are hitting the nails on the HEAD! Yeah Yeah Yeah!

Not even Beatles stuff like "I Saw Her Standing There", or their versions of stuff like "Slowdown", "Bad Boy" or "Long Tall Sally" (I really loved the comp ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC VOL. 1)? Seriously though, you also got some cool stuff by Paul Revere and the Raiders and the Kingsmen, and The Young Rascals are pretty cool, I think, at least in their first year's worth of material. I know this sounds like blasphamy but you could do a quick scan of Little Steven's playlists archives for suggestions. You don't have to be a member to look at the playlists, only just to listen to shows. He actually has some GOOD familiar tunes, not just your standard oldie moldies.

Hope that helps a little.

I respect & endorse your conditions - gotta have standards. I’m pretty old (55) and still love some of the old stuff (but love the new stuff more to be honest).
Trashmen would be great, followed up with the Cramps would be awesome – hopefully your client is a little bit adventurous. Mixing up the “eras” is always fun. I’d do some old Animals, Kinks & Stones with some good old Sex Pistols, Clash, Ramones & the Zeroes. And Devo’s “Satisfaction” is always good for a bridge to yesteryear. Here are some other bands whose stuff is still fun to hear – Standells, the Count Five, the Sonics, Nashville Teens, Moby Grape (just the rockin’ stuff), Syndicate of Sound, Yardbirds, Them, the Seeds, there’s more I’m sure but my old memory is fading fast . . .

So I've been commissioned to dj a new years eve party by this old guy who owns like 5 bars in my town. I djed for him on halloween and he reeeeally liked all the garage music I played and wants more of the same. But its a private party for him and all his old ppl friends - and one thing I've learned as a dj is that ppl (especially old ppl) want to hear either familiar, danceable, or crappy music. I won't play crappy music - but what are some suggestions for some slightly aged hepcats from the 60s who want to party down? I've got a lot of stuff but any ideas might help. Mitch Ryder? Trashmen? And part of my condition of doing this was that I would NOT play the beatles. at all. ever.

I've used it several times, but only for stuff that I'm desperate for that I absolutely can't find anywhere else. It's a last resort, but I've never been burned, nor was I ever ripped off or anything.
