Courtney and Fathead are interviewed on Sirius Satellite Radio this Thursday (October 2) at 5pm, with five rebroadcasts that will happen at 8pm Thursday, and then midnight, 3am, 7am and 10am on Friday (all times EST). They tell us that anyone can listen by logging onto the Sirius website and hitting the link to stream 100 for Sirius Sessions and entering an email address. Nice one.
If you have not been able to catch us on the road this year, we have a fifteen minute sliver of what awaits you at one of our jam packed, sweat drenched three hour experiences. Recorded by our sound guy Clark Stiles in Boulder, CO on September 2nd, we have an extra groovy version of “Genius” that you will have to hear, followed by an out of control rendering of “Solid”. You can find these tunes on the SOUNDS page. Have fun, and we’ll see you soon.
What do most people do with a week off? Lay in bed all day? Sit around and get smashed? Watch Dr. Strangelove for the five hundreth time? Feh! Slackers! With the week off we had from touring, we’ve set up our video editing studio and shot and edited the video for our next single, “Plan A”. And we still have four days left, we may end up shooting a feature film. Look for our video to debut in England within the next few weeks.
Hey. They’ve finally put up the video for “You Were The Last High” on our website. You might want to check it out, because we think it’s like nothing you have ever seen before.
Ouch! Quit twisting my arm!! Okay, you’ve seen something like it before. Sheesh!!
Remember a couple of weeks ago when The Slimmer Twins (Court and Brent) were at KCRW to record some songs. Well, as it turns out, the show wasn’t taped. It was recorded via the internal memory circuits of this experimental robot. It’s true! KCRW has a fancy robot, not unlike C-3PO, who records all the programs and encodes them for use on oil rigs….five paragraph nonsensical account truncated ….and that’s how they invented tubalcane.
We have just been alerted to the fact that the kids at GAMMON RECORDS have a fantastic proposition for you. On November 4th, they are going to be releasing a LIMITED EDITION VINYL release of Welcome To The Monkey House to the general record buying public. With its shiny yellow vinyl and one-thousand copy press run, this record has invertors from Kenneth Lay to Martha Stewart taking notice! Should you purchase a copy of this “collector’s item” you could very well find yourself rich, rich, rich within one year! We hear that’s how Jack Benny made his fortune.
Or, you can just buy it, smoke some grass, and stare at the big ass banana on the cover, which is really what it’s all about.
The Slimmer Twins (Court and Fathead) will be performing on the legendary KCRW this Thursday morning (Sept 4) at 11am. The performance was recorded live in the studio, oh, a couple of weeks ago, so it’s still not beyond its expiration date.
Hey, we want to say thanks to everyone at college radio in the US for making Welcome To The Monkey Housethe NUMBER ONE RECORD at college radio this week. Hey, it’s our first number one of any kind in the US, so we’re pretty happy.
Can you actually believe that for hundreds of thousands of years, mankind lived quite happily without the aid of electricity. In fact, it was just about one-hundred years ago that electricity began to make it’s headway into the lives of everyday man. One-hundred years ago. Socrates didn’t have it. Shakespeare didn’t need it. Oscar Wilde got on quite well without it.
Of course, life back then was also excruciatingly BORING.
Ah ha ha! But nowadays electricity is our slave!! It goes where we tell it to go and bends to our will!! And there’s nothing it can do to stop us!! Join The Warhols tonight, 12:35 et/pt, high atop the GENERAL ELECTRIC (!!) building in New York City for NBC’s LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN and celebrate of mankind’s complete domination over electricity!!
