Upper's is a hobby label. Dolores is serious shit. I hope they become massive all over the world. Youth is wasted... sold something like 10000-12000 which is not bad for a record that good. Ismail Samie is a great fucking guy. He's a pro who hasn't forgotten his mod-garage-psych roots. He's a gentleman and one of the best soul&60's dj I know ( the clubnights Lolita & Soulastatic they throw in Gothenburg are the best. We've played Lolita twice and it's the BEST party!!) The new Caesar's Palace is further removed from garage idiom but it packs just so much punch it's amazing. You'll love it I'm sure. Pekka ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2000 02:52:08 -0500 From: "Lenny Smith" Subject: Song I.D.??? Hi all-- OK, this is a weird one... I've not heard the song in question, and it sounds kinda artsy, and quite likely not very Bompish at ALL in nature, but I promised a pal I'd see if I could get any info for him through the internet... I've had no luck anywhere else I've posted, but who knows, maybe here? Does this ring a bell with ANYONE? According to my friend, who acquired the tune while taping a college radio show (since tape long since lost), the song seems like it HAD to have been from the 80's, and all I know is it contained the line: "Birds eat the bugs off a rhinoceros' back, a symbiotic relationship that proves the existence of God." No sh*t. That's what it says. Any ideas what the hell it is??? TIA, Lenny ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2000 09:18:23 CET From: "Sylvain" Subject: Re: Caesar's Palace for president !!!(was Re: SWEDEN on my mind) l. >Dolores is serious shit. I hope they become massive all over the world. do you know if Mr. Samie 's got a email adress so that I can give him a call to complete my Dolores collection ??? I miss the early issues, sure he still have some in stock.... sylvain / switzerland ______________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2000 03:26:46 -0500 From: "Lenny Smith" Subject: Re: Favourite Gigs Iggy Pop--Harvard Square Theatre, Cambridge, MA, March, 1977 This was the Ig's big comeback tour, and this was the first US date on the tour (he did one prior show in Canada). Bowie played keyboards, rhythm section was Hunt and Tony Sales, Ricky Gradiner played guitar. I was too young to have caught The Stooges, but Iggy was sooooo pumped for this it was INCREDIBLE. Blondie opened, then Iggy came out and did a LOOOOOONG, KILLER rocking set--Blistering! I had a really hard time getting tickets (it was miscategorized by Ticketron, maybe because of the venue), and my tix were supposed to be waiting for me at the Box Office. When I got there, they couldn't find them, but they honored my receipt with press tickets for the 5th row center! Got some AMAZING pix that night, too, plus a look at the Runaways, who were in attendance that night. Run DMC, Whodini, LLCoolJ, Beastie Boys, Timex Social Club--Madison Square Garden, 1985(? I think; first show of the Raising Hell tour) OK, not Bompish I suppose, but I offer no apologies--this was EASILY one of the 2 or 3 most exciting nights of music I've ever seen. Ended up backstage at the Garden, courtesy of a friend who worked for Def Jam. DMZ--Casco Bay Lines Booze Cruise in Portland, Maine, Summer of 1976 or 77 (whichever year Elvis died). Changed my life forever, and got me off my ass and forming a punk band within weeks. Monoman says Don't Jump Me Mother was written about this gig (there was a really big biker who was really into the whole party scene of the event, but he made everybody a little nervous, hogging everyone's booze and pot and such). Real Kids--Casco Bay Lines Booze Cruise in Portland, Maine, Same summer as above. Whatta summer!!! Ramones--CBGB's, 1977 First show of the Rocket to Russia tour. I'd gone to New Haven, CT for a college interview--a bandmate and I drove down together, to stay with his brother, who went to the school in question. His bro' pulled out the listings for music in New Haven and in NYC, and within 30 minutes of arriving on campus we were on our way to New York. Turned out to be the kick-off of the Rocket To Russia tour. The Ramones moms were in the audience. They did two shows; after the first, everyone was supposed to be herded out and you'd have to pay again to see the second show. But the table in front of us was a Sire Records table, and a guy from Sire who was leaving after the first show gave it to us, so the bouncers left us alone. We were joined by some student nurses who watched the show with us and then took us back to spend the night at their dorm! My hearing didn't return to normal till 3pm the next day (just in time for my college interview). Needless to say, that's where I decided to go to school! A-Bones, Tryfles, Raunch Hands, The Hope--"Ognir's Nest" in Brooklyn, Ognir's birthday (whenever that is), 1984 IIRC, this was the A-Bones' first gig, a party on the ground floor or basement of a brick apartment building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. I hadn't been in NYC very long at all, and this was my first taste of all of these bands. Totally rocking night! The hardest thing about lists like these is having to figure out which shows to leave OFF. The Cave Stomps, circa 80's and 90's come to mind...

JEFF < Subject: Re: one more snow day (roach hammer? how > > big are the roaches > > down there?) > > > >The roaches are about the size of field mice. When I first moved to DC from Fla., one of my housemates was from San Francisco, and she ran away screaming at the sight of a large roach! I just stepped on it and went about my business, since I'm used to much bigger, anyways. They do leave a mess when you stomp on them, though.>> ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2000 09:19:57 GMT From: "Wings of Desire" Subject: Re: LVG programme I agree with Katrina's comments, and I was also disappointed that there were only 2 songs played in their entirety (including, of course, Thee Headcoats!).

Johnny's wife is expecting a baby in the spring which has put the blocks on their immediate activity (gigs etc). The band recorded a stack of new songs last year - which btw sound great - but are unhappy with the overall sound quality. I believe that they wish to re-record them in a slightly more hi-fi studio.
