And talking of Billy Joel, I feel compelled to ask if anyone else remembers the track of that name by Blood Sausage... This then prompts me to ask "does anyone know what happened to Huggy Bear?" The last thing I can remember they were selling mail-order only singles about four years ago.
Huggy Bear turned into Pussycat Trash, who had a few great songs, and they recently turned into Red Monkey, who are TRULY FANTASTIC and the best thing to happen in post-punk music in a decade. A bit of hyperbole maybe, but still anyone who like Gang of Four and Huggy Bear should snatch it up. In the UK, they're on Slampt, which they happen to run, and in the US they're on Troubleman.
Bought an Elliot Smith album at lunchtime. Kiwi Mad Dog 20/20, heh heh, that was one of ours.
All of you Brit concertgoers are lucky to have an amazing opening act for the upcoming shows. The boy's a genius.
