The Queers

Got some early sounds in at O'Brien's. It was Monday and the club had a lot of people in it. This is not the norm. Seemed that people were there to see Let It Rot. They have a following in the scene. They are a duo with just drums and guitar. This is not the norm either. We have to hand it to them, they made believers out of us.

Yes, you can get something going with that line up. Their Bandcamp songs were exactly what we heard live. That bass player had good technique and in a way that can make a song. As the night went on there were less and less people, confirming that Let It Rot were the attraction.

The Lesson for the day: Myocastor Coypus, more simply the Coypu, is commonly known as the River Rat. It was also the name of the second band we saw. They were good musicians with elaborately written songs. Is it possible for a song to be over written? It's just that they went through so many changes. They did the soft loud thing. When they were playing soft it was well thought out material. When they went loud, it was fantastic. The singer was practically spitting blood. That intensity is food for the soul if you get into it. That one set satisfied our musical needs for the night. Good one, you River Rats. The Bandcamp offerings are mostly the loud material.

It was The Dickies at the Middle East Down on Thursday. It got the die hards out there on a work night. Though it wasn't sold out the place was very full. It was in October of 2016 that they last played. At that time it was the ME Up with Muck and the Mires. John Keegan caught that action.

Not only was having the Dickies a reason to go clubbing but the bill was packed. It had Cook Bag, Duck & Cover and The Queers along with them.

We missed Cook Bag but we saw them at O'Brien's a while back. They're a newer band and this was a good gig for them. People who saw them told us they liked the set.

Duck and Cover

We were there for everybody's favorite: Duck & Cover. They are nice guys, great musicians and they have songs you want to hear again and again. So, what's not to like? They play lots of shows. Often in small clubs but they commanded the larger ME Down with authority. Really they just did the bang up set they always do. They have so many good songs that there were favorites we missed hearing. It's great for a band to have that problem.

The rhythm section just rumbles and roars as the two guitars interact. The leads are often single string style and are longer than say a Buzzcock one that they resemble, and there's no end to them. The guitarist can crank them out. Now and then they do a harmonized guitar section a la the Allman Brothers. They have lots of influences and don't back off admitting them.

Duck & Cover

The sound at the Middle East can't be beat and the sound coming off the stage was big. Also, you could hear Chris' voice and that is one of the main attractions along with the songs. Be sure to listen to Duck & Cover's new songs "Live It Up" on Bandcamp. Give it a chance. We love when he sings, "Live it up, because you're going down again." The words are married to the melody.

Remember they're playing with the Adolescents at the Brighton Music Hall on 6/24.


The Queers
Photo:Blowfish

OMG. The Queers, you know? The Queers! You have to love them. They might not have invented pop punk but they codified it and showed all how to run with it. The audience went appropriately bat crazy for them. A vigorous mosh pit opened up and lasted the whole set. That's why our photos are from far away! The line up has changed through the years of course. 44 different band members by one count. They were in trio form and added Joe Queer and also Wimpy for a while.

The songs went whipping by. They played "Wipe Out" which was used in the animated movie Surf's UP. That seems like an interesting effort- check it out here.

The Queers

They did "I Hate Everything", Wimpy sang "This Place Sucks", Joe did "Punk Rock Girl". It was a wild set. The strong audience reaction made us think that most people were there to see them. That was not the case coz everyone stayed to hear The Dickies.

The early punk years where very exciting. The Dickies were part of that excitement. Coming out of the stodgy 70's where rock had ossified it was like blasphemy to hear the Dickies ravage "Nights in White Satin". At the time it wasn't just that we liked punk, it was also we hated those old bloated arena rockers. Johnny Rotton put "I Hate" on top of a Pink Floyd shirt to make that point.

Dickies

So, what about The Dickies now? They are still a big draw. And if the songs don't shock they still are fun pop punk. The group is still fast and sharp. The years haven't slowed the tempos. The vocals are still a big selling point. Leonard Graves has a distinctive voice. He can get away with just repeating a short phrase over and over because the gives it a semi-comic twist. The voice along with those wacky songs like, "If Stuart Could Talk" , just held you. And eventually the blow up doll made an appearance then the puppet.

No one claims The Dickies are politically correct. Leonard got in trouble a while back from some on stage banter. It was the over-the-top rocking and comical set that everyone wanted. What a night of music.

Amidst the plethora of tribute bands that play Thunder Road there is the good gig. Saturday was one, with the Nervous Eaters, Justine and the Unclean and Stop Calling Me Frank. This week Rum Bar Records allowed us to premier both Stop Calling Me Frank and Justine and the Unclean's new single releases. We felt that was a big opportunity for us and look forward to more of that.

Anyway, you couldn't getter a better line up for us!!

SCMF
Stop Calling Me Frank
Photo:Blowfish

Stop Calling Me Frank is different in so many ways. We have the interview with them which gives an insight to them. At Thunder Road their set was the best we've seen. The sound was punchy but clean, you could hear every instrument. This was true of all the bands. The sound system there does the job without being overpowering. Eddie on drums was a beneficiary of the good sound. He had some notable turnarounds and you could hear the tone of the drums.

Sax O Phone
Terry - Stop Calling Me Frank

John Keegan soaked up the sax work by Terry. He did a few things but one was the short riff that became the hook for the song. What he does goes back to the rock in the 50's. Both Terry and Lenny, the singer, jumped off stage into the middle of the dancers. That's right, the dancers! SCMF got people moving. They did some of their regular favorites like: "My Girlfriend is an Axe Murderer from Wisconsin", "Dash to the Haberdashery", "I Did It Just to Annoy You", "Bug In My Beer" and "Whale Baby" with it's urgent chant of “Save the whales, save the whales”.

They also did "Gimme Life" their new single. That song has a more serious tone to it and that's welcome. That new song is also representative of their new creative and career thrust. They're playing out more and are soon to have a new EP out.

Justine and the Unclean

Justine and the Unclean is the only band on this bill that hasn't been around for decades. It's only been a little over a year since the first recording came out. They earned a high profile in a short time. We heard a lot of people say, "I love Justine and the Unclean" during the night. It's from those amazing songs. Just the titles reflect an attitude: "I'm In Love With You, Jackass," "Passive Aggressive Baby," and "Love Got Me Into This Mess". Again we will refer you to our interview with Justin Covault that was in conjunction with the release of "Be Your Own Reason" where she gives some insights into her writing and what she's trying to achieve.

At Thunder Road the band was greeted with cheers and got whoops throughout. They looked like they were having fun. Charles Hanson was digging in and at points mugging as he played a riff that had a heavy rawk swagger to it. Despite his technical prowess he most often plays the simple chords and power chords that keep the song solid. Then of course he rips a section where his fingers fly and the notes cascade.

You could see that if you could take your eyes off Jim Janota. He's got to be the most visual drummer out there. He helicopters his sticks or throws them into the air as he literally never skips a beat.

Still it was those songs with the identifiable vocal blend of Justine and Janet that were at the center of the whole thing. There were a few songs we didn't recognize and assume they'll be on the new album.

The crowd ate it up!!

the Nervous Eaters
Nervous Eaters

The Nervous Eaters continue to burn a renewed career path. Amazing really. There's the been the high profile shows like the "Live at the Rat Suite" at the Hotel Commonwealth and the the show in Beverly in conjunction with the Boys From Nowhere movie. Then the Globe article and the immanent release of the expanded Hot Steel and Acid CD.

They were in good form at Thunder Road. They played some classics and a few new songs that they are working on. Alan sang "Want Me Back Again" that will be on the new Hot Steel and Acid CD. A section of the set came from that CD, like "Today and Tomorrow" (which has become a favorite of theirs to play), "On the Avenue, "Shit for Brains" (which brought Jim Janota to the front to fist pump the chorus), and the title tune "Hot Steel and Acid". They did "Chad" a new song they have been playing a lot.

They hit faves like "I'm a Degenerate", "Last Chance" and "Girl Next Door" and this is the amazing thing about the Eaters: The old songs just make you swoon, there's so many memories in those, then the new material impresses you because it come up equal to the old stuff and that's another pleasure; to see a band you love in a creative groove after all these years.

For us long time fans, seeing the Eaters has a whole other meta level going on. Alan told us there won't be any Eater shows for a few months as they bear down on the new recording they are doing. Those should be the first with Nick on bass.

It was a night where we enjoyed the bands and the whole experience. Met some of the old fans and some new people.

And that's an awesome week of music!!

Ritchie Parsons And in other news ....

Richie Parsons' Kickstarter for his new album Black Throated Blue is up and going. Let's get in there and give support. The new material is awesome!! The stuff we've heard is an extension of the previous CD but harder sounding and even more production touches.

He's got a short interview clip and a small taste of the song "Six Hours Behind" here. Kickstarter page is here.

The David Bowie exhibit David Bowie Is, at the Brooklyn Museum, has been getting tons of positive reviews by people who've seen it. It's only up til july 15. And tix sell out. Check it out here.

Index LPs Next time you are in Union Square at Sally O'Brien's, The Greek Club, or PA's Lounge take a look at the alley to the left of PA's. That's called Bow Market and they have a whole slew of new stores in there. Seemingly overnight they have this modern industrial style complex. There's a brewery in there and right now, about 20 small stores. And we mean small! But that gives opportunity for interesting ideas to pop up. And in fact they are doing just that- having a lot of Pop Up stores as well as the permanent ones. There is a record store in there called Index. It's all vinyl. They seem to be the new pressings on quality vinyl. There's just a little 'indie' section but aficionados will find something of interest.

We also want to remember Michael O'Donnell, drummer for The Jabbers and other bands (GG Allin's early band). Michael passed away early this month and was much loved and respected for his love of music and for being an all around great guy! RIP Michael!!!
