This week the Dandys are recording a cover of the Runaways’ “Cherry Bomb” (only one of the greatest rock songs of all time). Here’s Zia getting ready to put on some theremin. We’ll let you know when you can hear it.
Courtney’s collaboration with The Wolfmen yields another single with the release of “Marilyn Monroe (Wam Bam JFK)” next Monday, November 29th. I’ll have the links for you to buy next Monday. What, you think I have all the answers right this minute?
If yer lookin’ fer something fun to do Saturday after Thanksgiving, I’ve got just the thing:
Free show at The World Famous Kenton Club.
All kinds of great country covers-Counterfeit Cash and my band Brush Prairie with Norman (they got banjos ‘n shit) headlining.
Our wonderful day at the Moog factory. Naturally they have an all-Moog studio there. We jammed for about an hour and they recorded and filmed some of it. We also did an all-Moog per-version of “Green” which will heretofor be known as “Greener Than Green.” I think it might be awesome. We’ll see.
Now for the gig: well…speechless. Okay, no. Actually a religious experience for a lot of people. Including us. Besides being in love with this town, we are deeply in true love with this venue, The Orange Peel.
Asheville. Wow. I think I need to buy this guitar…. before someone does who takes it a little too seriously.
That circuit board sitting on the desk is Zia’s keyboard. Really. We’re at Moog HQ and they’re tricking out its little guts for her.
This band Hopewell is amazing. Giant two-drummer thing going on with art school vaguely jonestowny other thing. They’re very Janes Addiction-y too. Would make the most badass movie soundtrack ever.
