Well a few things to report this weekend.
First off, it was announced today the classic post-punk band
The Mydolls will be playing
Noise and Smoke II on November 15th. Awesomeness!
In other news
Born Liars have a fan in
Little Steven who has played the band quite a bit on his Underground Garage radio show. Bill Fool's a bit matter of fact about it all saying " We have been played a bunch on the Underground Garage station and last week Little Steven's assistant e-mailed me saying Little Steven loves us and wants everything we have to play it on the national show." Neat that this band is getting some well deserved national recognition.
Speaking of Born Liars.
Ditchwater zine is expanding into the realm of 7"s in the form of
Ditchwater Records and the inaugural release (which has been sent off to the pressing plant) will be by
Born Liars. If that isn't cool enough the second release will be a reissue of the classic lost
Gay Marriage EP (previously unreleased except via a few CDRs) with additional tracks. If you aren't familiar with Gay Marriage here is a review I did of their EP a few years back (
Link). Look for the band possibly reuniting for the record release towards the end of the year. That logo was created by none other than the great
Daniel Shaw.
Artstorm is also getting into the music release game and it seems that
Hearts of Animals is finally looking to release some new material on
Artstorm Records. In addition to HOA, the label has plans for other releases including music from
Ironic Bong.
Artstorm is located within
Caroline Collective which will be the location of a music conference of sorts called BandCamp (
Link) later this year. Ian Wells of the
KTRU Local Show/ Revelry Report contacted me about it:
"Matt Wettergreen, Phillip Beck (also from KTRU, great guy), and myself are organizing an event at Caroline Collective in late October, called Band Camp. Essentially, we'd like to get everyone in Houston who makes music together at Caroline and have a day-long "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about Making Music but were too Afraid to Ask" collaborative session/hang-out/bbq/whatever."
