I missed the 50/50 fertile section in my emergency preparedness plan. I really don't want humans coming back and certainly not from my seed. Then again, a new nation of long hairs that think only of surfing and RnR might be alright. I'm Irish Comanche though, we may have to eat the young to keep them from weeding out the old. It's not the guns you need to stockpile, it's the ammo.

No joke hunting tip for survival that I read in a '60s apocalypse manual recently acquired at my local thrift store. It was a fun read. Shoot the first thing that moves no matter how small. If it is unedible, lie in wait and shoot what ever comes to eat it.

I think it's fucking brilliant idea. They could do recipe songs on how to cook other survivors.

Maybe the "shittiest" tag was way off... when posting, the age-old question "Who's going to hire them?" sprang to mind 1st. If "Grizzly" wants to start a survivalist-breeder Sly and the Family Stone act, that's cool w/ me. (I own guns, BTW.) Just couldn't visualize the market~ hell, there might really be one! Might work with older 8-and-up kids, who knows?
At least he's keeping it secular; nomination is withdrawn.
Any fresh nominees for the Shittiest Band Idea 2009 trophy?

As long as they pay me, don't fucking care what or why they play.

What are you talking about? That's a fantastic idea for a childrens band. If there ain't uranium rock at the apocalypse, I'm not going!!

I think I agree with... "The self Masterbation", that's actually a good qoute. The thing about twitter is the speed of it. Your in and out. I've read alot of babbles back and forth amoung people on twitter, tons of self promotion and... self Masterbation. This new world is all about me... Me, me, me. What can you do for me. We are becoming more and more Vain with our teckno gadgets. We talk back and forth but nobody really knows anybody But, it is fun... for now Blaine said:

At least two responses to that statement:

Either

1. You signed up for an account and followed the wrong people

2. You have no idea what Twitter is for, and have only heard Whoopie Goldberg's take on it - because you said almost exactly what she said, which is a convenient and typical canned response.

Either way, thanks for not using it.

kopper said:

Too cool for Twitter, eh Blaine?

Blaine said:

Oh god. Seriously people?

Yeah, pretty much. Who gives a shit about what people are doing, it's boring. You're eating yogurt and you're glad it's friday. Woopie!

Wow, you and kopper really dig this website eh? Well, that's fine. I already use 2 social networking websites and I don't see why i would need a third. I don't see anything new on the table but, whatever. I'm sure there are some people promoting cool shit on their twitter page but, I went as far as clicking some of the links on this thread and saw a lot of self masterbation. Sure I might be missing out on what twitter is really all about. Can I live with that? I think I can. To each their own, right?

p.s. I paraphrased Whoopie Goldberg? From the View? Wicked.

I just started using it. lots of podcasts are ranting on it now so I checked it out. It's pretty cool for one liners and maybe rampant thought but everytime I type something political I loose all my followers so... I guess this means I should stay away from politics, lol but it is pretty cool. The last thing I posted was somewhat of a qoute and it went kinda like this... "Make up your mind and know what you want. If you don't you will fall to suggestion" besides, who wants to be a here and there anyways follow me at www.twitter.com/earlclifton if you don't like some of the things I say just delete me from your list of "following" you'll feel good about it when you do. It will make you feel like you have a little power over a nobody like me...

Solid review...now I really wanna hear this 7"!

Montreal Rock N' Roll revivalist Mark Sultan (The Spaceshits, Les Sexareenos, BBQ, King Khan and BBQ Show, etc) churned out this 7 inch for Sub Pop at the end of last year. Two very different sides of Sultan appear on this "double A-Side", one that is wholly expected and one that is clearly aiming for a different sound or possibly new direction in his "always evolving" career. "Hold On" clearly leans heavily on some of the cleaner sounds that appeared on his solo album The Sultanic Verses. Sultan has been pedaling his brand of garage rock for over ten years. Fans of his work will settle into this "A-Side" with little or no effort. This hip swaying tale of woe would be perfect for an early 60s matinee idol, but ultimately handled much better in Sultan's experienced hands. Veering away from that "safe place" Sultan literally takes Joe Meek's "I Hear A New World" in a different direction than the original. Given the airy, mood inducing music he incorporates elements of dream pop more often associated with Angelo Badalementi and more recently The Raveonettes. The original features three distinct repeating vocals; lead, backing, and chipmunk repetition and canned 50s scifi space ship sounds. Instead he opts for a warbly underwater vocal and at the end of the song is a welcome burst of guitar feedback. Creatively this might not rate as genre bending but the changes are subtle enough to make this a little more Mark Sultan than Joe Meek. Since this appears to be a one off single for Sub Pop it would be safe to assume that "Hold One" gives them what they want. Then taking a page from his own play book giving them what they might need. "I Hear a New World" experiment clearly begs, "Why not more music in this style?" Safe to say Sultan could pull it off.

met reg presley once in salisbury, no one else interests me

Amazing band and such down to earth guys too!!! And all of them were willing to sign autographs all nite when i saw them a few weeks back.... JackieRoman said:

I love photographing people who played on great records of yesteryear, and new stuff too. My catalogue of photos has a lot of faces in it. NYC can get pretty "name-droppy" which is annoying, but my favorite recent encounter was a couple glasses of wine with sammy yaffa (formerly of finnish glam outfit hanoi rocks, and currently the bass player for the new york dolls). Also in 2007 I had The Hives hanging out at my pad during Cavestomp, that was fun! Check out this fun photo of Magic Christian too! I definitely heart Cyril Jordan!

I met Fred Cole (Weeds, Lollipo Shoppe) 2 times when he played here neirby.

I've played the Teardrop model and it was great BUT the neck is quite thin, a bit skinnier than a real 60's VOX. The plus is the playability is MUCH better, the originals felt like shit to me. The price is also a plus considering it's a Made in USA guitar. I say go for it!!!

There are many ways to skin a cat. I own a small label called MAGPIE, and I've done a few things, some people will rip it, but I really have had the best luck with UNITED, www.urpressing.com/ My next release wil be the first time I've gotten them to master and cut the plates, but I feel pretty good about it. I will probably use I Love Imprint, www.iloveimprint.com/ for sleeves and possibly for a CD release coming up. Great guys to work with. As far as t-shirts, stickers and buttons I use Press Press Merch, www.presspressmerch.com/ They are really fast and will do limited runs for cheap. Seriously the easiest people I've worked with, and their t-shirt selection is bitch'n. Their website is bunk, so just e-mail for quotes. As far as press kits, I had one made with one of my bands, and it didn't do much. Most places don't need them for booking anymore. Sometimes newspapers will request one so they can use a pic, and get background on ya with little leg work. Though a high res. pic on-line with a bio will do the same thing. I hope this helps. Though from what i can tell there are a million good ways to do all these things. I will say I have never been able to do shirts as cheap as I have been able to with press press merch, and they are quality! So GOOD LUCK!

Howdy - so are press kits at all useful to any of the bands around this forum? We were considering putting one together but I hesitated because - well - it seems kinda lame and old fashion. Most venues we play (in the new york area) just take a link to out myspace page. Is it something useful when shopping your music around to labels?

Second - We've got an LP's worth of tracks recorded and now we got to figure out what to do with them.. I know we want them on vinyl... I'm thinking 45's - then maybe a Compact Disc for the LP. Maybe both. Can anyone recommend a resource for getting these pressed?

also - where do you get your t-shirts made?

Thanks

I got it at Permanent Records in Greenpoint, BKLYn $29.99.
decent, but not amazing.
but pretty good!
