Fanatic! We hope you’ve been digging our summer season shows.
The new Osees album, Intercepted Message is really good. Can’t wait to get the tracks onto the show for you.
Civic has tour dates - https://www.civicivic.com/shows
New Melenas album - https://melenas.bandcamp.com/album/ahora
My new book Sic is back in print
The second edition has a slightly different color scheme where “Sic” is in red ink on the cover and spine. All copies were signed by me at In The Red last week.
Stay Fanatic!!! Vol. 3 is back in print
I signed all these as soon as I finished signing all the copies of Sic. The whole thing took about 11 hours.
I’ve got shows starting in Australia in June - https://www.henryrollins.com/tour
I’ve been getting in a lot of listening in over the last several days. I use the music as an incentive to get my desk work done. I’ve been doing a lot of proofreading and scanning for the next Stay Fanatic!!! books. It’s coming along.
A few records I checked out over the last couple of nights
Gee Tee - Gee Tee
Gee Tee - Goodnight Neanderthal
Gee Tee - Live N' Dangerous II
David Bowie - Divine Symmetry
Kilynn Lunsford - Custodians Of Human Succession
The Fall - Code: Selfish
The Fall - Extricate
The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette
The Cramps - All Aboard The Drug Train
The Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us
I haven’t listened to the vinyl version of Fade by Boris yet. I think that might have to happen tonight. I think that one came and went quickly, as do a lot of their records. They don’t seem to press many.
For tonight’s show, I went for a fast paced two hours with a lot of tracks. Hopefully this matches up with your warm weather metabolism. That was the idea, anyway.
Thanks for listening and STAY FANATIC!!!
