SWEET LITTLE ROCK N ROLLER

My Friend Esme Barrera was murdered in her home early in the morning hours of new years day. Esme did everything and lived her short life to the fullest.She could always bring a smile to my face. I feel honored to have known her and spent her last hours in her presence. I miss her very much. Darling of the jukebox and queen of the weekend she will forever be a rock n roll angel.FOR OUR ESME B

Three of my favorite bands in town right now are Sweat Lodge ,The Wolf and The Bad Lovers. If you like doom, doo-wop,psych and pop, they do it all and do it well. They are an incestuous lot, hailing from somewhere in North Texas and other parts unknown. They are comprised of Dallas Cowboy Cool Cody Lee, Caleb Dawson, Jimmy Wildcat, Alex Capistran, Alfie Bernal and " shock me, make me feel better" Austin Shockley.....

You can see The Wolf next Monday at The Grand with Flesh Lights BAD KIDS KRAMPUS CHRISTMAS BENEFIT

AND WITH CHRISTMAS JUST AROUND THE CORNER AND ITS TIME TO THINK ABOUT OTHERS. I'M SURE ALL OF YOU REMEMBER HEARING ABOUT THE TORNADO WITCH DESTROYED JOPLIN MISSOURI THIS PAST MAY. A LOT OF PEOPLE LOST THEIR LIVES, THEY LOST THEIR DADS, THEIR MOTHERS, THEIR CHILDREN, THEIR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. SOME FOLKS LOST EVERYTHING. ITS ONLY BEEN SIX MONTHS AND THEY HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN AND THERE IS STILL A LOT OF WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO HELP THIS COMMUNITY GET BACK ON ITS FEET....

ALL WE IN BURGER CITY ARE ASKING YOU TO DO IS COME HANG OUT, SHOOT SOME FREE POOL, LISTEN TO A LOT OF GOOD ROCK N ROLL, SEE A COUPLE OF GREAT BANDS AND DRINK SOME CHEAP BEERS. A PORTION OF YOUR BAR TAB WILL GO TO HELP THESE PEOPLE OUT.

BY DOING THIS MAYBE YOUR ARE GIVING SOME KID THAT ONE THING THEY REALLY WANTED FOR CHRISTMAS, HELPING SOMEBODY PAY RENT, PAYING FOR A BABYSITTER, PUTTING SOME GOOD FOOD ON SOME FAMILY'S TABLE OR JUST TAKING A LITTLE BIT OF THE WEIGHT OFF SOMEBODY'S SHOULDERS FOR A MINUTE ANDI KNOW FOR A FACT THAT JOPLIN LOVES ROCK N ROLL. SO, LETS LOVE THEM!

UPCOMING FLESH LIGHTS/ NAW DUDE SPLIT ON 12XU

THANKS TO MR.GERARD COSLOY FOR DOIN ALL THAT HE DOES!!!!THANKS TO MAX, ELLISA, AND THE "TEEN "DREAM" JEREMY STEEN FOR KEEPING THE JAMS COMING! YOU CAN PICK IT UP RIGHT HERE! DONT FORGET TO GRAB A COPY OF THE NEW CRUDDY LP OR THE CASUAL VICTIM PILE II WHILE YOUR AT IT! FLESH LIGHTS PLAY THIS SUNDAY AT THE 29TH STREET BALLROOM IN AUSTIN, TX WITH THE BARRERACUDAS, THE DEAD SPACE AND THE BAD LOVERS BEFORE THEY HIT THE ROAD MONDAY. BALLROOM DISASTERS!!!!!

Two Austin bands with seemingly little in common dared each other to cover Freestone's KBD exploitation classic. The results are either deeply disrespectful (Naw Dude) or equally reverent (Flesh Lights), or perhaps it's the other way around. Two new Naw Dude originals (recorded by The Golden Boys' Bryan Schmitz) and one new Max Flesh Light classic are included. There's a download code for the originals - not for the cover, sorry. SHIPS ON OR BEFORE DECEMBER 12, 2011. First 100 on blue vinyl.
