I can tell you that they're playing in DC on Thursday 5/8 and, I think, Philly on Friday, 5/9. (The Trocadero, I think.) I don't remember the page, either, but you can get there via Steve Coleman's Prepare To Enter The Garage page. (Sorry, the URL's at home and I'm at work.)

They are friends and, I know this is a stretch for some on this list, it's possible to criticise (or poke fun at) a person's band without it being a personal attack.

This is one of the reasons the Boston fest is not happening: we wanted to do it the weekend after the Detroit fest, but Thee Headcoats are playing Boston that weekend! Oh, well. As far as the dilemma goes, it is always great to catch a band as many times as one can on a tour (as I have done with the Smugglers), but imagine ALL THOSE bands playing! As a regular festival attendee, I can tell you, they're usually fun-packed, friendly and have this unified party feeling to them. but I don't think I need to tell you that, T.J. -- weren't you in Denver?

It stars Glover and a cast of mentally challenged actors and snails, who get the most abuse of all. I won't give away the premise. I'll just say this: it's all about power and control, and it may be glanced back at 20 years from now as a possible ERASERHEAD for the '90s. He then showed slides from several of his books(possibly some unpublished), like RAT CATCHING, and gracefully narrated them in a way that would make William Shatner jealous of his Shakespearean delivery. He looked rather dapper, too, his hair in a page-boy, much like in the Glover/Harry Dean Stanton(sp?) film TWISTER(see it!) and suit. There was a mob scene after the 3-hour performance/film screening, so we didn't get to press the flesh. But if his lil' show makes it to your burg, GO, BABY, GO!

I talked it over with my girlfriend, and it looks like we're doing the Detroit fest after all. I'll still get to see Thee Headcoats/Makers at least once. I especially hope that this Mono Mann/Hentchmen thing comes together and that the Cynics do, indeed, end up playing, too. I also hope that the festival organizers have enough sense to put an emcee on the stage that knows what the hell he/she is talking about. That dork in Denver kept getting on the stage between bands saying that Jeff Conolly and the Mono Men were going to be playing! If Mono Mann had heard that, he probably woulda kicked his ass, as he HATES the Mono Men. And as far as the unified party feeling phenomenon goes, Treble Fest coulda used a little more of that. I saw a couple of scuffles (one with a really cool eye-gouge!) and I almost had to engage in fisticuffs after my girlfriend hauled off and hit some asshole that had been repeatedly slamming into her. Oh well, that's alcohol for ya... Nevertheless, we're makin' the scene, anyhow. When the Hatebombs break into "Go Go Gorilla", I'll keep my eye out for you and your monkey mask.

Robert Palmer from the band is the writer and critic (NY Times, Rolling Stone, etc. - not a bad one. He has a nice knowledge of blues and jazz). Also which of the two Lp's did you get. I love Hoboken Saturday Night and think that the ballad "Eyes of A New York Woman", with lyrics from Thomas Pynchon's great novel V, is an amazing lost classic.

This song has also appeared on a couple of comps, Sin Alley vol. 2 and one of the latter Born Bad volumes. No-one seems to know anything about the band, etc which is a pity 'cos it's one helluva song. The Cramps also cover it on the Blind Vision demos EP and more recently on the Flamejob LP. Speakin' of bands on Sin Alley, anyone know anything about The Frantics Four (TV Mama/Down By The Old Mill Stream)?
