Now,this band, I was lucky to see play live.They did several shows in Chicago as part of the Estrus Records live showcases that feature all of
the latest and greatest bands on that label, and this was surely a great
band. No longer performing together, because they all splintered off into
many other groups, and putting out records of their own. Too bad.
Because I thought this band was really incredible. I never heard a
punk band mix in blues standards like this, and make it sound so cool.
This band features Austin, Texas's best indie/punk guitar player
Tim Kerr, who was also in twenty other bands(it seems): The Big Boys,
Monkeywrench, Poison 13,The Lord High Fixers,and quite a few others.
I would call Tim Kerr the 21st Century renaissance man. Since he plays
other instruments, makes visual art, and records many other bands.
And records them well-check out The Cynics (Get Hip Records) recent
records, which have revitalized them musically more than ever!
He has a website put together just by his fans, that's how well loved
he really is. He's also in the Texas Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.
If you liked the Doo Rag disc I posted a little while back, then you're
going to love this too. Just give it a chance and it'll grow on you.
I promise, you might like it! Judging from the tracks, this should really
want to make you investigate this further!

Hello again Garage66. I wanted to invite you and your readers to my new social network that I have created. It's similar in appearance to myspace (minus all the hormone-crazed teenagers), but it is intended to serve as a hangout for artists, musicians, and music lovers. I have also included a forum category for music bloggers such as yourself to promote their blogs and share updates. If you are interested, here is the url:

I hope to see you there. Take care.

Included on the album are covers of songs by Blue Oyster Cult, Antiseen, Black Flag, Devo, Bo Diddley, The White Stripes and The Vaselines, as well as an interpretation of the '60s Batman theme. No money should change hands for this album. Feel free to post it on your blog or share it however you choose. We're marketing this album specifically toward bloggers.
