A great honor to be in the Magazine of Rock & Roll America. A fitting combination, I’d say, right You and Me? Anyway, check out a copy online here: http://issuu.com/seangoblinko/docs/pork6 and if you have great clubs/DIY spots that carry the magazine then pick up a physical copy. Here is a link to the PORK website: http://internetpork.com/

Here’s a link to an article by the Christ Wire that I find very suspect, but nonetheless entertaining in classic, Black Lips mythological fashion. http://christwire.org/2012/04/coachella-lineup-2012-the-black-lips-cole-alexander-whips-out-twiddle-rompus-plays-guitar-with-it/
ALSO here’s an interview with 91X at Coachella: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CCc_LHWnJE
Fat Creeps are a sweet band from Boston I saw Friday night at O’brien’s Pub. It appears they have been making a name for themselves and playing numerous shows around these parts, including one with Bundles of Joy, a band with Wakefield roots (Wakefield, MA is KLYAM’s hometown!) Fat Creeps are not the most conventional rock band, but they crank out some really catchy, inspiring tunes. I highly recommend this band to fans of unique pop music that places a stronger emphasis on passion over musicianship; so basically good music.
Here’s a video of the Fat Creeps playing at the Dirty Douglas in Lowell on Novermber 22, 2011. I’m kicking myself now for not attending this show. I procastinated as usual and had to write a Psychology and Women research paper. The irony is that Fat Creeps would have fit perfectly with my researach on women in music!

and while we’re at it, here is the Creeps’s kickass music video for “Nancy Drew.”

Wes: I find myself drinking PBR all the time.
One week until the release of Natural Child’s For the Love of the Game on Burger Records!

Damn, wish I could have been there!
Hello everyone, check out SARALEE our latest Band of the Week, truly a unique group that deserves a lot of praise. We have seen and reviewed SARALEE a few times now and they get better each time. Definitely one of the best bands in Boston right now. The first time I saw them they opened for Peach Kelli Pop (PKP’s very first show in America!) at the now defunct Problem House in Allston, MA. Allie Hanlon from PKP wrote about SARALEE in her tour diary: “Saralee was a girl Sara, who has the cutest / best voice, and Lee a great drummer, who lives at the Problem House and was a gracious host to us! I was happy to see them play.”- http://peachkelli.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2011-06-29T15:52:00-07:00&max-results=7
I couldn’t say it better myself! Here’s their Band Camp page: http://saralee.bandcamp.com/
According to Hunx the customer is NOT always right…
Featuring two Arabia Mountain leftovers, “Sick Of You” and “Dance With You”. You can download the latter (HERE). Not quite a top Lips number in my book… maybe it will take some growing. Who knows?
Last year around this time the Lips were trekking across the US. It doesn’t appear they will be doing that anytime soon. June or July, maybe if we get lucky. Otherwise, not for a while! Here is a link to their tour schedule for the next few months: http://www.vicerecords.com/vicerecords/tours.php
This is from a little while back, when Billy Hayes was still with the group. Looking good Billy! Definitely one of my favorite Wavves numbers, unfortunatley the studio version has been taken down, so here’s a live cut from their performance at Amoeba Records on August 18, 2010. Also, here’s a link to the full set and interview: http://www.amoeba.com/live-shows/videos/wavves.html
