greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 9:50 am I've gotten a few emails asking about this and I figured it was only a matter of time before someone else posted about it so I'll let the cat outta the bag. The Gories and the Oblivians are currently working on booking some shows for next summer. One in Memphis, one in Detroit and two weeks in Europe. I'll post more when the dates become solid.

chicago kevin Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 9:56 am HOLY BALLS.
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 9:58 am is that really you "ed?" i wanna be your friend again.
greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:00 am Yeah, I posted so infrequently I forgot my old password.
dtrain Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:01 am wow! How about, GONERFESt! That would save some Europeeans some dough and make it a little easier on those of us who have to travel...
Ding Le Dangle Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:02 am Is it april 1st? Am I dreamin? is that really you "ed?" Gonna sell my Shell stock right now anyway so I'll have the money to travel, just to be on the safe side.
greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:05 am \| Edited by: greg O Gonerfest is in Memphis. We're doing a Memphis show. How would it be easier?
Seamus Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:07 am just in case you forgot your geography, there is a west coast to these united states. then again, i always wanted to see detroit in the summer.
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:11 am congrats on scoring "orphan boy"
greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:13 am \| Edited by: greg O Making everyones schedule work (the dirtbombs have a pretty rigid touring schedule next year) did not allow for a full US tour and we thought it most important to do home town shows. sorry west coast.
dtrain Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:13 am Easier cause those of us hwo don't live there would only have to make 1 trip for the year to see everything including said show. Thats all. Financial reasons basically.
greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:16 am I gotcha Mike. Unfortunately schedules could not conform.
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:17 am i'd take oblivs vs. gories over g-fest, and i'm not slighting g-fest at all.
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:18 am and i'll eat a whole bag of smashbooms too!
dtrain Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:20 am Deff gonna try and make this.

lightning69 Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 11:42 am Greg, That is excellent news indeed. I just replied to your last message on my "SEEKING COMPULSIVE GAMBLERS / REIGNING SOUND Footage" post. Please send me another email at: brokenstringrob@yahoo.com I have been working on a documentary film about modern Memphis music and too many roads lead to you on this subject. I would like to arrange to film an interview with you by all means necessary (as I have filmed interviews with Eric and Jack). Thanks, Robert
deadcityrebel Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 11:56 am looks like i know what i'm doing next summer
greg O Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 11:59 am I just emailed you Robert.
Pistol Pez Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:36 pm ok - i'm quitting my job next summer & going to all these shows like a deadhead. whenever & wherever.
Pistol Pez Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:42 pm not really. but at least dee-troit. gambling afterwards.
nicks name Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:43 pm OK, this is starting to look legit... SWEET! This Oblivians Memphis reunion will not go down like the last one when we got there too late and missed the whole thing! But I'm still skeptical about this lightning69 guy- somebody check him out.
jenna Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:45 pm that is glorious, glorious news.
Jack Stands Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:46 pm Well, I'll be damned. Never seen the Gories.
cococomas Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 1:50 pm I'm freaking out.

saint sarah Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 3:08 pm \| Edited by: saint sarah My applications for driver, roadie and merch girl were already rejected by Peggy. Said Gred, "knew some reliable Europeans folks." pffft!
chicago kevin Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 3:20 pm which has more weight, a "reliable european" or someone willing to work for the worthless american dollar?
nicks name Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 3:31 pm which has more weight, a "reliable european" or someone willing to work for the worthless american dollar? Is smell a factor? YOU SAID IT, my man! You better hope it's not at the same time as your other life changing event!
tapecase jackson Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 3:39 pm WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cococomas Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 3:56 pm You better hope it's not at the same time as your other life changing event! they said it was summertime, so it should be good - baby's coming April 4th-ish Maybe I'll bring my baby to see the Gories… BABY SAY UNH!
Joe Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 4:00 pm Can I finally press that 2xLP w/10" from the Blackout? Yeah, seriously. Just got a new credit card... Eric has my email. Greg too, I think... but here it is again: shakeappealrecords@gmail.com
michael baker Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 4:04 pm can you add an emo band on the bill?
peg Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 6:08 pm all i said was that we're not flying anyone over to do merch, drive, etc but if you want to fly yourself over, might have a job for ya.........
dale Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 6:14 pm All kinds of coolness. Hardly ever got to see the Gories and only seen the Oblivians a few times.
Craig Daniels Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 9:47 pm That is basically the best news I've ever heard.
bvalentine Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:10 pm are currently working on booking some shows for next summer That leaves little time to find a bass player.
dustymedical Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:41 pm Hardly ever got to see the Gories and only seen the Oblivians a few times. i feel TERRIBLE for you, dale
Useless Eater Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 10:51 pm Please make the Detroit show before the Memphis show. Unless the Memphis show will be on Saturday and Detroit show on Sunday. Boners!
billiams Member	Posted: Sep 30, 2008 11:09 pm Greg, give me a ring. We should talk about some stuff....
dont wanna be a fat boy Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 12:51 am well hell yeah; I always wanted to go to Memphis anyway (I've seen Oblivians twice and Gories never, but I'm really curious about them)- alright then, sounds like a blast Mr. O!!
dutch hercules Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 1:58 am Kalamazoo aint that far from Motown.......ya know...
luke batarang Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 2:26 am saw the oblivians about 5 times and the gories once - sorry, reunions are boring - just come over with the reigning sound! signed, selfish luke
tet68 Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 3:36 am add an emo band that's another disgusting suggestion
Minus Matt Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 7:21 am CANADA? dammitttttttttttt I am happy enough to drive down to Detroit and possibly Memphis too. But yeah....Canaduh would be cool too!
thememphiscreep Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 7:57 am this made my day
greg O Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 9:00 am Hey everybody. I've received lots of emails about the booking of the european end of this. Though the time frame is still not definite, our booking agent is Ankie Snass out of Holland and she may be reached at ankster@chello.nl for serious inquiries and offers. thanks.
trickknee Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 10:47 am Can't believe I'm agreeing with Luke, though I'd like to see the Gories, even as a reunion thing, for the first time.
Ding Le Dangle Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 10:53 am I'm gonna see 'm I'm gonna see 'm I'm gonna see 'm Hell Yeah!
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 11:36 am Ankie Snass out of Holland Wooohooo!!! Ankie, from Holland!!!! So surely some Dutch shows I guess!! I had a chat with her at the Black Lips show last thursday and she didn't say anything??? Ankie's cute!!!
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 11:38 am oh, and sorry Luke, but FUCK LUKE!!! I'm so excited about a few Oblivians/Gories or Gories/Oblivians shows!!!
tomdash Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 11:47 am Any thoughts on adding NYC gig???
greg O Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 11:52 am Sorry Tom, only home town gigs. Detroit is a good option for NYC folks though.
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 12:15 pm Somehow I always knew Europe was the hometown of you guys!
Jesse Garon Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 12:40 pm Why not book this guy to open? http://cgi.ebay.com/RYDER-MITCH-DETROIT-MEMPHIS-EXPERIMENT-CD-NEW_W0QQ itemZ140270778056QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item140270778056&_trkparms=72%3A1 205%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 those oldies but goodies remind me of you
dutch hercules Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 3:01 pm this would be a good excuse to go to Europe..THE NETHERLANDS..yee haw! if i could afford it.
schmatt Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 5:40 pm is there an Asheville, NC show?
elle Member	Posted: Oct 1, 2008 5:54 pm i'll probably be moved outta memphis by then, but i'll be damned if i won't come back for this shit. holy damn.
BigKegShandy Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 4:16 am Fingers and toes crossed fer a UK gig, I've just emailed PJ from the Dirty Water Club with Anke's details... Greg, are y'all playing Memphis this New Year's Eve?
luke batarang Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 5:02 am oh, and sorry Luke, but FUCK LUKE!!! I'm so excited about a few Oblivians/Gories or Gories/Oblivians shows!!! jasper, i would be excited too if i was your age ;-)
jenna Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 5:13 am Gories, please cover Louis Jones' The Birds Is Coming! http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/28516 starts at 20:18 you'd rip it!!
Thomas Savage Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 6:31 am damn! that's cool!
Mullett Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 6:52 am This'll work.
greg O Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 8:05 am No show in N.C., no Memphis new years show for reigning sound.
m t millionaire Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 8:13 am show for reigning sound. perhaps a tour with the new album? when's that coming out again?
luke batarang Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 8:23 am The more I think about this reunion eurotrip, the more I realise it’s gonna be total FUN. Think I’m gonna spin some party pounders at the Belgian show. After all, it’s all about havin’ a good time, right? (+ disagreeing with trickknee always feels good)
Minus Matt Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 8:46 am Any idea of when or where in Europe? More so where? I am going a few place next summer, nothing important, I'd almost plan my trip around it, if it was at all practical.
luke batarang Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 8:54 am Both bands should play the Colosseum in Rome like true r&r gladiators!!
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:06 am both bands, all new material!
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:36 am both bands, all new material! hysterical!
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:43 am hope you like our new direction!
m t millionaire Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:48 am our new direction! this is going to be like MTV unplugged, right?
Will Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:53 am new direction = please let there be a funky funky hip hop dj adding superfluous scratching p.s. The Gories Outta Here is Allmusic's album of the day
Rich Balls Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 10:02 am hope you like our new direction! does this mean the Gories will have two drummers?
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 11:10 am both bands, all new material! New albums too?
Joanna Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 11:44 am I think I just peed myself. This is too much!
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 12:26 pm \| Edited by: eric o all bass, dj, keytar & midi stuff! we realized that when we stopped playing together, we still had so much to say... and that we really needed to stretch out and grow artistically. now that i know diminished, inverted, and minor chords we'll really sound great! holding us back no longer! gories new album: Back Into Here!
pheezy Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 12:30 pm God knows I love kiwi pop. Can't wait!
BigKegShandy Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 12:49 pm no Memphis new years show for reigning sound. Poot! Thanks for the definitive word tho', Greg... still holding out fer a TJs gig, or Ross & Jeff on NYE... mebbe have a beer or ten, whatever! Hope to bump into ya if you're in town, visiting...
jewbacca Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 9:40 pm hope you like our new direction! hope you like my nude erection!
paristheatre Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 11:01 pm Detroit is a good option for NYC folks though. So you're bringing Detroit to NYC? Very cool.
bradx Member	Posted: Oct 2, 2008 11:40 pm just recreate the emos set and rap along with the drum machine...
GrunnenRocks Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 5:04 am HA!
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 10:44 am i still gots that drum machine... will put to "surf" beat and let it fly!
trickknee Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 10:46 am By the way, I think this is great for both bands, they deserve it. But, you know, reunions.
greg O Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 1:00 pm Alright already Todd, you don't want to see it. Stay home. Yeesh.
markenstein Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 1:39 pm is this a joke??
Plastic Fag Baby Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 1:49 pm I'd rather hear new tracks from you and Eric, I don't think it's insulting to say that!
dale Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 3:39 pm I usually don't care about reunion shows (cuz most of 'em these days are missing original members and/or they haven't kept musically active in the off time) but this will be all original members, they've stayed for the most part active in music AND are two of my favorite bands of all times so THIS IS VERY EXCITING NEWS IN MY WORLD! Hell, if the Detroit show is all ages I'm bringing my oldest son too.
Shaun A Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 5:07 pm Don't play England, it'll give me an excuse to go on holiday to Europe. It'll be like National Lampoon's European Vacation but even funnier
deadcityrebel Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 5:42 pm is that possible?
Paul Lips Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 6:01 pm Ain't England in Europe?
Theresa K Member	Posted: Oct 3, 2008 11:22 pm i hope you play in paris so i can relive my 1997 relative youth!
Rich Balls Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 12:51 am \| Edited by: Rich Balls Where is the Detroit show going to be?
Jason Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 1:06 am Cobo, duh.
peg Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 8:08 am and bob seger will be opening...ha! looking into the masonic, maybe majestic...
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 11:52 am some rubble somewhere?
peg Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 12:04 pm yes! who has a generator?
The Driver Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 12:14 pm some rubble somewhere? yes! who has a generator? hmm, how about The Carpet House?!!
Theresa K Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 2:14 pm some rubble somewhere? like old tiger stadium... what's left of it
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 4, 2008 2:51 pm GORIES LIVE AT TIGER STADIUM... whoah!
rocknrollnurse Member	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 4:06 pm now I've got a reason to live!!
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 6:10 pm reason to live! reason to live!
peg Member	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 10:28 pm what's the carpet house? if we're gonna do rubble, i'd prefer a more cop-free location than tiger stadium... nice concept though been thinking about an outside show like this fer along time.......
Large Marge Member	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 10:45 pm My vote for the location: Belle Isle!
Large Marge Member	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 10:46 pm ya know, Nolan Strong wrote "The Wind" while driving thru Belle Isle, making it sacred ground.
The Driver Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 2:29 am what's the carpet house? St. Aubin and Frederick...Sunday afternoons, when the weather approves. Mike Hurtt in Metro Times.
tet68 Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 4:30 am Detroit living!!! "house music all night long"
eric o Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 9:40 am that article is great. good job, hurtt!
Jason Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 10:44 am belle isle would rule! watch the gories and feed taco bell leftovers to scabby albino deers!
pheezy Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 10:56 am Carpet House sounds great. Man oh man.
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 11:17 am pheezy.
pheezy Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 3:47 pm bajoeka zoo.
Jesse Garon Member	Posted: Oct 7, 2008 3:52 pm Forget Carpet House or even Red Carpet Lounge. Resurrect the mounds! The mounds were crafted by Native Americans during the late Woodland period, circa A.D. 500-1300. Several dozen ancient mounds are believed to have been used as burial grounds and for decorative and ceremonial purposes in this area. The Native Americans who settled here later believed the mounds to be sacred, without knowing who built them, but most of the mounds were leveled when European settlers transformed Detroit as an agricultural town. "There were mounds right where the Rouge River meets the Detroit River, on the Detroit side," Hocking says. "The two largest mounds were right near the Detroit River, south of Jefferson and east of Rouge, and the one that was closest to the river was conical in shape, and estimated to be about 50 feet tall and 300 feet in diameter, but it was eroded by cattle. Now there's a giant brownfield there. Southwest Delray was heavy with native sites too, but the only evidence is on Fort Wayne. They do have a small mound they've preserved, but it's very small and fenced off and so overgrown you can't really see it anymore."
peg Member	Posted: Oct 8, 2008 5:17 pm we could have a reenactment of a gories show if we play fort wayne...
roche Member	Posted: Oct 8, 2008 5:53 pm Re: Oblivians & Gories European dates ... Any chance you'll be playing Albania in mid-June?!? I won't hold my breath ...
rivercityliver Member	Posted: Oct 20, 2008 6:42 am One in Memphis, one in Detroit and two weeks in Europe. I will so be at some of those European dates, woot! My better half is over the moon at the thought of a Gories/Oblivian gig.
Bam Bam Bigelow Member	Posted: Oct 20, 2008 4:46 pm Where is the Detroit show going to be? I vote Boblo Island. Even if the Boblo boat isn't seaworthy, organize a rocknroll flotilla to ferry the crowd across the river. It would be grand.
mattpendleton Member	Posted: Oct 20, 2008 9:28 pm I am so glad this is finally going to happen! it's about time! I wanna come to every show. two of my favorite bands together! if you need a reliable driver/merch guy/rockin' DJ Keep ol' Matty in mind! yes, I'll buy my own ticket over! just keep me fed with bread, cheese, and cuts of salami and I'll be happy! it sounds like it\s gonna be an amazing time
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Oct 21, 2008 11:46 am It would be great to see you back in europe too, Matt!!
Fred H Member	Posted: Dec 3, 2008 10:38 am Seems that Christam is coming soon! Don't know where but I'll see this show! As the Chrome Cranks reunion, it's more than exciting...
dustymedical Member	Posted: Dec 3, 2008 11:06 am this still happening?
greg O Member	Posted: Dec 3, 2008 11:24 am Still happening, same schedule, next year.
BigKegShandy Member	Posted: Dec 4, 2008 3:21 pm Greg, PJ from the Dirty Water Club really wants to put y'all on, but said he's heard nowt from yer agent... he's done gigs like Radio Birdman and The Monks, so he's a stand up guy...
muddy spear Member	Posted: Dec 7, 2008 10:05 am I wanna go to Eur'pe, innit. Don't play England.
grrtch Member	Posted: Dec 7, 2008 12:40 pm Greg, I'll second that endorsement of PJ... he'd take good care of everyone!
thepest Member	Posted: Dec 8, 2008 2:16 pm And I'll third it. Great bloke, great venue!
skank police Member	Posted: Dec 8, 2008 5:45 pm same schedule which is??
greg O Member	Posted: Dec 8, 2008 6:04 pm It's still being booked but the gigs will start around the end of May. We're not going to England. Work permits and what not are a little stiff and the drive a little long for one, maybe two shows. Sorry, I'm sure he's a great guy and it's a great club.
Alex C Member	Posted: Dec 8, 2008 9:46 pm If I can't get any of the summer internships I'm applying to I think I'll take a European vacation instead.
Miss Faye Member	Posted: Dec 8, 2008 10:03 pm I just now am seeing this thread. Sweet! I hope, hope, hope I am here when you come to Memphis, or you decide to add a Czech Republic date if I'm not.
coleslut Member	Posted: Dec 9, 2008 1:00 am i know you ain't coming to old shitty charlotte sometimes but if you decide to tear asheville up, please let a fool know.
dale Member	Posted: Dec 9, 2008 1:15 am So when's the Detroit show? I might have to work on getting my 12 year old a fake ID or something (cuz he really wants to see the show)
dutch hercules Member	Posted: Dec 9, 2008 2:53 am Gories-Oblivians @ Tiger Stadium...Hurry before that shit is gone!! if not, one of the many HUGE floors at Cobo Hall.
BigKegShandy Member	Posted: Dec 9, 2008 3:04 am We're not going to England. Shame! Gonna haf to come see y'all in Europe, then! Can you post the dates as soon as they're confirmed, Greg? Then the Goner UK contingent can get booking flights and stuff...

Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 3:44 pm Don't worry, I'won't. Wednesday I'll arrive in Valladolid. Merry x-mas everybody!!!
dustymedical Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 3:53 pm By the way, Jesus Lizard are also reuniting! Yeah, super excited about that. Hope it's not a letdown!!! Seen Yow a few times since then, he doesn't seem to have changed much (at all), so there is hope.
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 4:08 pm Jesus Lizard, letdown? Not even possible! I just hope they play European mainland. Or maybe it's a good reason to give the UK a visit.
Adam K Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 4:26 pm This is the ONE GOOD THING about moving to NC...I'll be able to make the trek to the Memphis show!! WOOOOO!
dustymedical Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 4:37 pm Jesus Lizard, letdown? Not even possible! i know, just fucking with you!
dustymedical Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 4:38 pm easily the best live band i ever saw* *never saw the oblivians
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 4:58 pm For me the Fatals but then again I've never seen the Oblivians AND the Gories
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 5:00 pm nor the Cheater Slicks :-(
SJones Member	Posted: Dec 22, 2008 5:08 pm *never saw the oblivians really? I only saw the Jesus Lizard once, but they were pretty amazing.
luke batarang Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 2:29 am Gories (Effenaar, Eindhoven - 1992) Cheater Slicks (JH Nijdrop, Opwijk - 24 March 1996) Jesus Lizard (Democrazy, Ghent - 27 March 1991) Oblivians (about 5 times in Bloody Belgium)
rich riggler Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 9:09 am Jesus Lizard was the worst band I ever seen.
dustymedical Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 9:12 am hahahahaha good one
cococomas Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 9:24 am I saw the Jesus Lizard about 8 or 9 times - living in Chicago during their hey-day helped alot - and I must agree with Kevin... a show at Lounge Ax I saw (right around when 'Liar' was released) was one of the best shows I've ever seen…
muddy spear Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 9:25 am I saw the Oblivians once. I needed to vomit the whole time. No fun. Play somewhere sunny and warm and coastal.
rich riggler Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 10:45 am I guess some of you guys like to watch little dudes sweat with their shirts off. Whatever. (Lisa, call me.)
LisaLisa Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 10:56 am Ned, you called it years ago.
Jasper de Wilde Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 12:01 pm Gories (Effenaar, Eindhoven - 1992) Cheater Slicks (JH Nijdrop, Opwijk - 24 March 1996) Jesus Lizard (Democrazy, Ghent - 27 March 1991) Oblivians (about 5 times in Bloody Belgium) I was about to get born about then!
cococomas Member	Posted: Dec 23, 2008 12:50 pm I guess some of you guys like to watch little dudes sweat with their shirts off. Whatever. (Lisa, call me.) it's not matter of LIKE - it's a matter of WANT. Ned - call me.

mtwallet69 Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 8:23 am I just found out my X-Mas present!!! thanks so much! and pleez, come near France!
Scott Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 8:32 am How could a band possibly think "Puddle of Mudd" was a good band name? "Ian, what should we call the band?" "How about...Puddle of Mudd!" "I don't know..." "No wait. Here's the catch...We spell mudd with TWO Ds!" "SWEET!" "Swiggity- Sweet."
Scott Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 8:33 am I'm sorry. That was way off topic.
mtwallet69 Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 8:40 am "Eric, what should we call the band?" "How about... Oblivians!" "I don't know..." "No wait. Here's the catch...We spell Oblivians with an A!" "SWEET!" Swiggity- Sweet." it works with the Gories too... but those 2 bands rule...
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 10:14 am and their names are halfway decent.
Glenn DC Member	Posted: Dec 24, 2008 12:19 pm Every band name sucks, unless the band happens to rock. Rocking cures stoopid.
Matto Member	Posted: Dec 28, 2008 10:46 pm any more updates on the U.S. show dates?...we're tryin' to book a little tour in april and I don't wanna miss out on the show(s)....
Oliver Twist Member	Posted: Jan 1, 2009 9:10 am Any news on East Cost dates (MA, NY, etc) ?? Would like to add a couple of Canadian gigs to the stretch if interested... I'll write the booking agent I guess but would be helpful to know what's lined up so far. Happy New Year to all! ~ Oliver Teenbeat Takeover www.myspace.com/teenbeattakeover www.teenbeattakeover.com -- coming soon!
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Jan 1, 2009 9:20 am Would like to add a couple of Canadian gigs to the stretch if interested... I'll write the booking agent I guess but would be helpful to know what's lined up so far. One in Memphis, one in Detroit and two weeks in Europe only home town gigs. Detroit is a good option for NYC folks though. jessus goddamn motherfucking christ already.
Rich Balls Member	Posted: Jan 1, 2009 10:08 am Hey, will the Gories and Oblivians come over to my house and hang out with me? My mom said you can come over and hang! maybe play a set in my living room? get at me dawgs!
bazooka joe Member	Posted: Jan 1, 2009 10:11 am the coke machines will come over and FUCK YOUR MOM IN HER ASSHOLE!
