Or do people really think Kim Fowley is that important? I've perceived Fowley as a clever opportunist and mostly a poseur...tell me what makes him great. I guess I don't know a lot about the guy. Bob writes: Guess I could've stated my position a little more clearly. I don't think anyone will mistake Kim Fowley for an important (or great) musical artist. I don't know much about him either, and I was fishing for insights from other Bompers. I was surprised to find some decent garage rock cuts on this disc. The Zappaesque tracks are Bad Early Mothers of Invention. The writer of the liner notes makes some hay about Fowley's membership in the Mothers (but I don't remember the particulars). On balance, there's enough of interest that I'm inclined to keep the disc. I don't think it will be to everyone's taste.

This is the story that ran at the Wall of Sound Music News site concerning the stage-diving accident at the Boston Everclear show: Thursday, December 11, 1997 Everclear, NFLPlayers Sued by Mosh VictimA woman who suffered serious injuries when an NFL quarterback landed on her after he stage-dived at a Boston Everclear concert last month has filed suit, the Associated Press reports. Tameeka Messier claims that New England Patriots players Drew Bledsoe and Max Lane dove from the stage and landed on top of her. She maintains that Everclear singer Art Alexakis encouraged them to jump. "With Bledsoe and Lane together on the stage, Alexakis began to encourage them to stage-dive," read a portion of the civil suit. Messier says quarterback Bledsoe, who weighs about 235 pounds, landed on the left side of her head and her left shoulder after he dove from the stage. "Ms. Messier felt her body go numb, and felt as if she was blacking out," the suit says. The twenty-three-year-old Messier underwent surgery in which two discs were removed from her neck and replaced with part of her hip bone. Bledsoe, Lane, Everclear, and the Boston nightclub where they were playing are named in the lawsuit. Shortly after the injury occurred, Alexakis issued a statement denying that the band had invited the players onstage, much less encouraged them to dive off. "We had no idea that Drew and other Patriots were going to come onstage, and not in our wildest dreams did we ever think they were going to stage-dive. Once they did, we immediately ended the show and went back to our dressing room," Alexakis said in a statement. "We cannot condone any actions which put the safety of our fans in jeopardy." No criminal charges were filed in the case. Messier requested a jury trial in the suit, which does not specify damages. ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

Earl Carroll was also the name of lead singer of the Cadillacs("Well they often call me Speedo/But my real name is Mr. Earl mm-hmm-hmm") Perhaps they are the same person, which is why I thought the Cadillacs did it first. The All Music Guide lists the Coasters doing it, which seems to be in their millieu of novelty-tinged lyrics. >It's probably not much of a lead, but a song of that description was also >covered by the Kaisers on their 'Beat it Up!' lp - the song is credited to >Carrol/Guy. ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

I was quite shocked the Master Plan turned out to be Keith Strange & Bill Milheizer (sp) of the Fleshtones, Adny Shernoff of the Dictators and Pete Lightning of the NC band Waxing Poetics. What can I say besides ROCK'N'ROLL....Keith is still The Roman God! I was surprised that none of the usual people were out for the gig.

Yeah, the Master Plan have also been doing Wednesday nights in February at Nightingales. Unfortunately, weeknights are tough when you're getting up at 6 AM to face teenagers all day. However, I should be out next Thursday night to see fellow Bompster Rob and his group The Baskervilles play their first NYC club date.
