If it interests anyone, I am going to be deleting the "Hayride" Facebook page and posting anything related to that show on my "40 Oz. Nonsense" page. It would just be easier to keep anything podcast related all under one roof, rather than give me one more thing to have to worry about maintaining and keeping updated. I already do that with the Twitter account anyway, so it only makes sense.

Here's the link for the "40 Oz. Nonsense" page: www.facebook.com/40oznonsense

Really dig these guys myself, ESPECIALLY Roger Miller! And who can argue on your Cash claim? I especially love his '50's rockabilly and '60's tunes. Early '70's were fine, but after that, I didn't have too much of an interest in his musical career. And I may ruffle feathers here, but I just wasn't a fan of his "American" series of recordings produced by Rick Rubin. I'm not saying they're bad, it's just a matter of personal taste. So many people seem to they were the greatest albums of his career, and maybe they are, and I'm just missing something?

Roger Miller and Johnny Cash doing some serious fucking around.

here's a suggestion...

We'd definitely be down for that in August if you need a lot of heads up time!
Maybe do a two night thing where we just pop in at whatwave on thursday, play grooves, then the next day we hit up brennan's.

Very cool ideas, thanks dave!

If you're willing to make the drive to London, you can always do an instore at Grooves Records...doesn't pay, but it's fun AND you get staff discount on anything you buy at Grooves while you're there. Plus if you have any merch to sell, Grooves doesn't take a percentage off the top.

 

And Brennan's Beer Bistro is right next door, so you can work out an all ages gig there for the same day...you get the door at this place. Plus you have to do all of your own promo and have a door person.

 

And if you're down on a thursday eve, we can probably work something out to get you live on Radio What Wave...need lots of advance warning to work this out.

As far as Canada goes I was just looking for anyone from any country's experiences and what tips or suggestions they'd have!
And i'll definitely do that for next time.

Thanks!

Great topic but ya should have posted it in the Bands And Musicians Group. Also use your local regional group; Canada. You'll be able to tap into a ton of local knowledge in that group. I won't close this discussion since there's a couple of replies but next time remember to use the appropriate groups for this sorta thing.

Good luck with your tour!

That could be cool, but my friends and I have been hankering to road trip for quite a while now, and this would be the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

It'd be kind of like a vacation and a tour at the same time.

But I do see what you're saying with the whole making connections thing, maybe that's something a first tour can do, you know?

But I'm new to this so I don't even know.

true! i will forward your suggestion to a friend who actually need them. 

Make up your own lyrics. More fun that way.

couldn't find...

Does somebody know where I can get the lyrics 

for 'Blood Blank Blues' song?

Thanks!

If I remember right, Red Sovine co-sang that...Speaking of which, Red could really do some honky tonk singin' pre-"Teddy Bear" era (In other words, before most of his albums became just storytelling set to music).

webb is the man! ever heard his cover of George Jones " why , baby, why" ? i think its even better than the original

Yes, my ad here at the Hideout will start running soon -- but I wanted opinions on the other best places online to advertise garage-psych releases?

It is so hard to reach the actual people who still actually BUY new garage-psych releases, lol -- so I'm llooking for any online locations that are worthwhile.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Ok yes when you put everything into it's time frame, for 63 it's way out there! Also the Kingsmen version is thee one which is totally recognisable as theirs, if you know what I mean. In fact "Louie, Louie" by the Kingsmen was/is the "blue touch paper" that sparked my adolescent imagination. FACT!

If people are going to keep saying Swamp Rats (which is awesome),  my assumption is that you like the Sonics' version more than the Kingsmen since that's what my question was, not what OTHER versions you like besides the two.

Absolutely. And The Cramps' version , based not on The Sonics , but The Swamp Rats.

DFA '79 is a two piece (formally just death from above but had to add the '79 cuz i guess the name was taken)  with a bass player ripping on super distortion and a drummer/lead singer. They were a pretty big underground canadian band then broke up when they were getting really popular (started in 2001 broke up in 04, apparently they really hated each other) Bass player went on to form MSTRKRT (not really a fan of that) ANYWAY they put on an amazing live show and excited they got back together. They have a lot of electronic remixes out there so make sure your listening to an original not a remix. anyway enjoy.

Kyla Marie , What are they like? Good name , if a little long. I've never heard of 'em.  If anyone cares , I remembered the third song of The Damned's set , last tuesday. It was "Antipope". Sounded good , too....

Honestly, if their  is a way you can get your recordings onto tape you'll be surprised by how good it sounds. Its my opinion, but the natural compression of tape does wonders.
