POSTER ART SHOW/THE RESTARTS/JELVINS/NEW RADIO SHOW/PLAYLISTS/TOP 10

I had no radio show yesterday folks. I took off so I could go see Russian Circles, Daughters and Young Widows at Slim’s last night. Young Widows was sick and can’t wait to see them again. This weekend I’ll be heading to “Rock Art by the Bay”. The Rock Poster Society (TRPS) returns to Fort Mason Center once again with some old and new faces attending. Here are the featured poster artists attending; Lee Conklin, Randy Tuten, Ryan Kerrigan, Marq Spusta, John Van Hamersveld, Jimbo Phillips, Su Suttle, Mark Behrens, Gregg Gordon, David D'Andrea, John Seabury, Dennis Loren, Chris Peterson, George Hunter, David Singer, Mari Tepper, Gary Houston, Chris Shaw, Paul Imagine, John Howard, Pat Ryan, R. Black, Scrojo, John Mavroudis, Norman Orr, Alan Forbes and Justin McNeal! So come on out to chat, see and buy some cool posters. See you there.

My other radio show at PIRATE CAT RADIO is going pretty well. This coming Tuesday, June 17th 4to6PM, THE RESTARTS from the U.K will be live in the studio. They're back again in the states and they’ll playing at Thee Parkside that same night along with Mouth Sewn Shut, Static Thought, US Kings and Fracas. The show is once again an Alcoholocaust Presents, its All Ages and the show starts at 7PM. Come on out and support these U.K. punkers before they leave the country.

We have a special birthday party going on here in San Francisco on Monday the 16^th and Tuesday the 17^th. Jello Biafra is turning the big FIVE-O and what a party he’s throwing. Jello has invited a few bands that we all know and love to play. To open the shows, the Melvins reach back to their original '83 hardcore days with King Buzzo on guitar, original drummer Mike Dillard and Dale Crover manning the bass. This Melvins line-up goes on first at 8:00 sharp. Then we have Jello’s new band, Jello Biafra & the Axis of Evildoers (Ralph Spight, Billy Gould, Jon Weiss). Of course Jello with the Melvins and the opening acts are: Drunk Injuns, Los Olvidados (Monday night only), Triclops and Akimbo (Tuesday night). This is a birthday party some of we would like to have but, in the mean time come to great American Music Hall and feel it before you throw one like this. You may just change your mind. HA!

Thanks everyone for all the lovely music you send, all your support and all the promoters for doing what they can by getting the music out there to the world via radio or the internet. You can check out my radio shows on the internet or if you live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Don’t forget, Tuesdays 4to6PM (PST) at WWW.PIRATECATRADIO.COM or 87.9FM in SF, L.A. and Berlin, Germany. Also, Thursdays 4to7PM (PST) at WWW.KSCU.ORG or 103.3FM in the South Bay. Spread the word and tell all your friends in bands, labels, promoters, bookers or anybody else that deals with bands. Have a nice weekend and be cool. Cheers!
