Happy Holidays! Please don’t miss the RULIN’ YULE show at Il Corral on WEDNESDAY, December 27th.
Anavan, Attractive & Popular and my new band with Bret B., COCKWIND, will be playing.
Show starts 9:30pm. It is all-ages / $5 / music by DJ Z Kyle as usual. There may also be surprise guest bands, so watch for announcements!!!
Il Corral is at 662 N. Heliotrope Drive in Los Angeles.
See you there!?
Enjoy the Yule photos below. Richmond and I are celebrating our first Xmas in our own place. Richie decorated the tree with golden dinosaurs. I hung the stockings. I can’t wait to relax (and brainstorm new events & movies).
Don’t forget to wish Richmond “Happy Birthday.” He was born on the same day as Jesus—imagine that!
See you on the 27th!!!!!!
Peace

A big shout out to Bob Bellerue, Christie Scott and Stane (and Burgess and Cory) for organizing this AMAZING noise fest.
Part IV was the dramatic conclusion to the whole weekend.
I showed 40 BANDS 80 MINUTES! at 6pm and friend & former neighbor Cathie came down to see it. It was so fucking great to see her! I can’t tell you how many times she saved my life with a nugget of kush or a shoulder to cry on.
About 10 people stayed for the whole showing. I had never met any of them before. I sold four DVDs at the end, so this was a very successful screening. Hopefully these folks will take the DVD back to their towns and spread the word. Quality music needs all the help it can get.
Photo highlights are below. Treasure Mammal (from Phoenix) was a stand out. They will be coming to Il Corral Monday nights in 2007 so watch for that.
I can’t wait for the next noise fest! I am sad that this has ended… What a phenomenal experience!!!!

OK Audience! This was a “noise potluck” where the performers played any junk the audience brought in….. fucking brilliant.

Ok, so the show went until 4:15am the night before. Then, everyone got up and came back to Il Corral at 12noon on Sunday for vegan pancakes and thrashing noise!
This was SO MUCH FUN!!! Damn, we gotta do this again, right!?
I was a bit late (I was sick and needed sleep… then the damn bus kept passing me by) and I only got photos of Beach Balls (aka Kyle and Bill… two of my most fun, intelligent & thoughtful music fanatic friends). They played in the corridor by the bathroom. This was an amazing burst of noisy fun. Enjoy the pics!
Beach Balls!

Part II of Turn The Screws Fest was an absolutely incredible night. I have never seen so many people at Il Corral!
Aaron Dilloway, formerly of Wolf Eyes, seemed to be the main draw. Interestingly, Aaron was also in the Flying Luttenbachers for a hot minute and I had just seen the Luttenbachers’ Weasel Walter at the Echo. Too bad these guys couldn’t have teamed up again, eh?
This was another night where I was having so much fun, I forgot to take photos!
Anyhow, enjoy the pics below. I think they capture the best of the night.
