THE GENERATORS/MIDNIGHT BOMBERS/CRIMINAL DAMAGE/TOP 10/PODCAST

By the time your reading this I would’ve already saw the stupid Olympic Torch go by near my house. I planned to get out of work early, ride my bike to the torch run, have a few hot dogs with a Coke and see me some riots. Earlier this week three people climbed the Golden Gate Bridge and hung two banners off of it protesting the Olympic Torch coming here because of Tibet. Being a Texan and not seeing too much protests growing up, it’s pretty good seeing this and how people of all kinds could get together and believe in one thing. I love this country for our right to protest, free speech and drinking beer. I’m hoping that I’m not in jail tonight or the riot police beating me for eating hot dogs and drinking a Coke. That would be a cool picture though. HAHAHA!

This Saturday, April 12th at Thee Parkside, THE GENERATORS will be gracing all of us with their presence. For nearly a decade these guys have put out a hand full of records, have toured all over the place and have no sign of stopping. Roger Moser with Under The Volcano Magazine says “The Generators always give you their classic signature melodic Punk Sound with a blistering swagger of Rock N Roll, as if Bad Religion and Social Distortion were split at birth”. Also, what would a show be without THE MIDNIGHT BOMBERS! These guys are a “Punk bomb” ready to be detonated at nights end. It’s always good seeing these and if you get to
close. . . BOOM! Also on the bill is The Final Solution.

I love early Sunday shows because I can go out, have drinks and still make it to work the next day without a hangover. I’m talking about Sunday, April 13th at The Knockout we will have CRIMINAL DAMAGE (from Portland - members of Tragedy). They have a few records on Feral Ward Records and what I’ve heard so far is they are not as hard as Tragedy but, they will get down and tear it up. Also on the bill is NEEDLES (members of Limp Wrist / Talk is Poison / Look Back and Laugh), STIFF JEANS (Oakland) and YELLOW EYES ( x-members of Dead and Gone / MD 20/20 / Santorum). Also, the show is brought to you by once again Scott Alcoholocaust. The door opens at 5PM and the show starts at 5:30PM. Come early, leave late. HAHAHAHA!

Don’t forget, you can listen to my show every week on the internet at WWW.KSCU.ORG or if you live in the South Bay its at the dial of 103.3FM. If you miss my show, you can always go to my podcast websites at the links to the right of you. Download them on your phone, your laptop or whatever gadget you use these days. Thanks!

Oh yeah, I have good news but, I’ll write about it next week but, I’ll give you a hint, I have a new radio gig in San Francisco. Thanks everybody for all the music, free ticket giveaways and everything else you do for the station and me. Have a great weekend, go see a show and keep spreading the word on KSCU 103.3FM and me, Naked Rob. CHEERS!

MINISTRY/THE FAMILY CURSE/EARTLESS/PLAYLIST/TOP 10

Photobucket

I LOVE SPRING! Well, sort of. It’s nice here in San Francisco during the day and cold at night but, its perfect weather that I personally like. Anyway, hope all of you are doing well. I have a pretty cool next few days coming up. First, I’ll being seeing probably the last show in San Francisco for MINISTRY. Uncle Al said he’s hanging up the cowboy hat and focus more on producing and sitting behind the board making other bands as good as his bands. I’ve been a fan of Ministry since the late 80’s and all of Uncle Al’s side-projects on Wax Trax Records and of course LARD. I don’t think we’ll see another band or another musician like Al for a very long time. He’s a mad man scientist in the studio, has created some of the best music/bands (REVCO, 1000 HOMO DJ’S, ACID HORSE, etc. . ) and has always had control of his projects. I guess I could say he’s the Stanley Kubrick of Industrial music. He’s helped so many bands/musicians succeed in the creative department and seeing them take off into sometimes huge. I will miss Uncle Al and his antics and I hope one day someone will step up and continue what Al started over 20 years ago. Thanks Uncle Al for all the great music and the kick ass live shows throughout the years. CHEERS!

Unfortunately, I will miss a CD release party at Thee Parkside for a San Francisco band that reminds a little bit of Ministry and that’s why I like seeing them. That band is THE FAMILY CURSE. Sorry TFC but, have fun without me though. I’ll catch you next time.

Lastly, Saturday night at 12 Galaxies in the mission District will be one of the best shows to kick off spring time in San Francisco and it’s another Parkers Presents. The line-up is EARTHLESS (Cosmic Rock), HOT FOG (ROCK), CHEETAH SPEED (members of Zen Guerilla, Mensclub, Hammerdown Turpentine & Sonic Love Affair) and STIGMA 13 (Garage Punk RocknRoll). I like this line-up is great because all four bands are different in music and styles. Its going to be a mixture of Punks, Rockers and Old Timers and I think everyone is going too get along and who knows, maybe new friends and bands will come about by the end of the night. Come on out to 12 Galaxies and make sure to have a good fake I.D. because it’s 21 & over.

Oh yeah, I have good news but, I’ll write about it next week but, I’ll give you a hint, I have a new radio gig in San Francisco. Thanks everybody for all the music, free ticket giveaways and everything else you do for the station and me. Have a great weekend, go see a show and keep spreading the word on KSCU 103.3FM and me, Naked Rob. CHEERS!

TRICLOPS CD RELEASE/ALCOHOLOCAUST PRESENTS AT THEE PARKSIDE/BLACK COBRA /PLAYLIST/TOP 10/PODCAST

I hope all of you that went to SXSW had fun, got your fill of bar b q, booze and music. This weekend for me is going to feel like a mini SXSW because of some cool shows going on here in San Francisco. This Good Friday, March 21st will be the release party and show for TRICLOPS at Annie’s Social Club. TRICLOPS’ new album “Out Of Africa” will be out on Alternative Tentacles Records. The Bay Guardian calls TRICLOPS, “Mix Fleshies, Victim’s Family, Bottle & Skulls, shake and then stir, leaven punk fury with psyche tension, allow to rise. Rise to Rock and Roll DOMINATION, that is!” I think that says it all. Also on the bill is LOZEN (Tacoma), TURKS (SF) and comedians Alex Koll and Brent Weinbach in the backroom. Oh yeah, the show is brought to you by Alcoholocuast Presents!

Another Alcoholocuast Presents is happening about 2 miles away at Thee Parkside on the same night. DESPISE YOU, LACK OF INTEREST, VOETSEK, WARKRIME and SAY BOK GWAI! I don’t think I’m going to make it to Saturday after Friday night but as always, I’ll make it through somehow. The show is ALL Ages so bring your kids and your kids kid. HAHAHA!!!!

Hopefully I’ll have recovered from a massive THRASH ATTACK the night before to make it too see BLACK COBRA at The Hemlock Tavern Saturday, March 22nd. No need to explain that two guys could make so much noise and have the capabilities to bring it all together at the end of the song. Here’s a quote from the Hemlock, “As far as classification of their sound, doom metal mixed with sludge and grind and a dash of stoner metal sums up Black Cobra's musical recipe." Also on the bill is SANTHAI (SF/Oakland), LUX NOVA UMBRA EST (ex-Man is the Bastard) and I haven’t had a chance too see neither of those bands. It’ll be nice to get turned on to some new bands and hopefully get some music from them to spin on the airwaves. The Hemlock Tavern is 21 & over so sorry minors (unless you have a good fake I.D.).

I will not have a GIGPOSTERS.COM artist on the show this week but, Billy Perkins interview from last week is podcast’d already online at
THE THRASH ATTACK INTERVIEWS. I’ll have another GP artist on next weeks show. You can always catch my other podcasts at
THE THRASH ATTACK podcast and THE NAKED ROB SHOW podcast. Put 'em in your iPhone or whatever gadget you may have these days. Also, my radio show streams online every Thursday at KSCU 103.3FM. Check it out if you like.

Thanks everybody for all the music and support you have given to KSCU and me. Without you, this world would be my target for disruptive madness I can cause by being annoying. Have a great weekend, be cool and keep sending music for the airwaves here in the San Francisco Bay Area. CHEERS!

SXSW/BILLY PERKINS/ALAN FORBES/ PLAYLIST/TOP 10/PODCAST

Perkins
(poster art by Billy Perkins/Austin, TX)
Hey everybody. Most of you are at SXSW enjoying drinks, music and bar b q. Y’all need to enjoy one more thing and that is FLATSTOCK! FLATSTOCK is thee only poster art road show in the country. FLATSTOCK usually has the best of the best poster artist in the world under one room. One of the best poster artist that is at SXSW, an Austin native and is at FLATSTOCK is none other than BILLY PERKINS. I met BP last summer at a poster show in Sacramento thrown by another kick ass artist, PAUL IMAGINE (which I’ll have on the show sometime in the near future). Right off the bat Billy & I had a lot in common. We’re both Texans, love music, bar b q and art. Well, he’s the artist and I just look at it and enjoy it. His style of art is funny, wicked, scary and very Texan. YEEHAA!! Anyway, when you see it for your self, you’ll know what I’m talking about. So Billy will be calling in the show as part of the GIGPOSTERS.COM series I’m doing just about every week. So please, check out on the internets at 6:30PM (PST) at WWW.KSCU.ORG and see what’s up at Flatstock, SXSW and what Billy P. is up to.

I’m not going to any shows this weekend but, an art show is going on. Check it out:

RED FANG/THE GRANNIES/TOP 10

Hey everybody! Hope all is well. Since last week I’ve been in a civil action against my old neighbor for some property of mine that he stole. Yesterday, it was all taken care of. In the old days I would’ve use revenge techniques or some other means to get my shit. Instead, I used the law (cops). I always thought I would’ve never of used the cops for anything until the other day. I had two things going for me. First was the element of surprise. Second, my old neighbor is a felon, stoner, gamer (=LOSER!) and I know he does not want Johnny Law to fuck his life up anymore than it is. Let me tell you one thing, the last seven days I had that feeling inside of me from my fight days back in high school. You know those feelings that float with you throughout the day and knowing after school you’re going to fight in front of half the school. The feeling of butterflies in your tummy and the stress of everyone asking you what you’re going to do in the fight. Also, the thoughts going through your mind like how you’re going to give him a right and then an upper-cut and then he’s out (but of course that never works). All those stupid feelings were going through my mind but, as soon as he saw the cops, he gave me back my MOOG. I’m hoping too never see him ever again. I feel so much better now but I feel weird at the same time. Its like I’m all grown up and using my head for once and not my Mexican macho crap that’s inside. Rob – 1 Bad Guys – 0. Oh yeah, I just added another enemy to my list. It just keeps growing and growing and growing. . .

Speaking of breaking the law. . . My good friends RED FANG from Portland, OR are back in town to ROCK US ALL NIGHT LONG (or at least they kick us out of the bar). RF rocks the way I like it: LOUD, LOOSE and LOUD! They’re coming through town on the way to SXSW in Austin, TX. I wish I can join them on that road trip but, they’ll have fun without me. HAHAHA!!! Anyway, they are playing this Friday, March 7th at Annie’s Social Club (the old Covered Wagon) on 5th & Folsom along with WALKEN (my bro’s), HIGHTOWER (SKATE METAL! I love these guys), Birthday Suits (from Minneapolis & Japan) and of course this is another great show brought to us by Alcholocaust Presents. So, come on out (21+), check out some great bands from out of town and some locals and make sure to KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE! YEAH!!!

The following day I’ll be waking up late and drinking coffee in the afternoon for sure. Then, I’ll grab some lunch in The Haight and maybe see a few friends. After that, gotta get home and take a siesta before going to the wildest, craziest and funnest ROCK shows I’ll be attending at Thee Parkside this year. It’s another Wondertaker Records Showcase on Saturday, March 8th. If you don’t know this label well, I’ll give you the short version. The label is home to some of the BEST PUNK ROCKNROLL bands on this Earth. The band that’s headlining are the GRANNIES! It’s a bunch of dudes dressed like old ladies with wheelchairs, canes, walkers, guitars, sticks and nasty grandma drunk smell but, they can shake, move and ROCK like twenty year olds. Also on the bill are the ROCK Terrorists themselves, Midnight Bombers. Come dressed like the Zodiac or the Unabomber and get a prize package from the band. Then its COBRETTI! COBRETTI is straight up PRNR and the more they drink, the harder and rowdier they get. The band has ex-members of MOTORHOME (damn good band as well). Then opening up the show is Grace Alley. I have no idea who they are but, if they’re invited on this bill that means they ROCK as well. Be sure NOT to wear your nice clothes because you’ll be smothered in beer, man sweat and stink from the grannie panties. So come on out and remember, I WARNED YOU!

Since the past seven days of stress and the police I had to deal with, I will not have a GIGPOSTER artist on the radio once again. Next week for sure, I promise. In the mean time, check out the website under my links. Also under links, you can find my podcast websites, my Myspace profiles and other sites that are cool to check out. So please, don’t be a stranger to those links and tell them Naked Rob sent you. OK, thanks for everything you all do by sending music, forwarding my info to other labels, promoters, bands and your friends all over the world. To all of you going to SXSW, have fun, rock out, drink a few for me and eat some BAR-B-Q and the rest, thank you. CHEERS!

IMPALED/POPULATION REDUCTION/NO RADIO SHOW/PLAYLIST/TOP 10/PODCAST

As I've written in the subject line, I will not be having my radio show this Thursday due to a work trip. I will be back though on March the 6th and with a new GIGPOSTER artists. So please, come back then. Since I'm gone this week, you can listen to last weeks show at http://thethrashattack.podomatic.com and http://nakedrob.podomatic.com.

I'm lucky enough to be back Friday afternoon for a ruthless showcase at Thee Parkside. The show is a Tankcrimes Records/Alcoholocaust Presents and the lineup includes: Impaled, Population Reduction, I Will Kill You Fucker, In Disgust and Thousands Will Die. It's an all ages show and I'm hoping to make it out alive at the end of the night. Most of the bands are from here except In Disgust. In Disgust comes out of the Cambridge/Toronto, Ontario area and are extremely just like their name. Its going to an awesome show so come on out and show your support.

Thanks everybody for all the music and support you have given to KSCU and me. Without you, this world for me would be my target for disruptive madness I can cause by being annoying. Have a great weekend, be cool and keep sending music for the airwaves here in the San Francisco Bay Area. CHEERS!

DRAIN THE SKY/PLAYLIST/TOP 10/PODCAST

Man, I had so much fun at last Saturday’s poster show at OFF THE WALL on Haight Street. It was nice seeing the crew back together in San Francisco and seeing new ones as well. I got to party with the guys from Monolith Printing (have fun in Austin, TX. Miguel), David D’Andrea, Sonny from the Oakland band WATCH THEM DIE and a few guys from ANNIHILATION TIME. It was a blast and hope to do it again sometime down the road. Cheers guys!

This Friday night is the unofficial CD release party for DRAIN THE SKY. Drain The Sky has a new album out on Level-Plane Records and the label writes, “Cohesively blending together the melancholic inclination of Neurosis and the ripping attack of His Hero Is Gone, Drain The Sky's debut album is a diverse and upright punch in the gut.” I think that says it all. Oh yeah, DTS features ex-member of His Hero is Gone and Eldopa. The show is taking place at Annies Social Club and it’s presented by Alcoholocaust. Also on the bill is Birushanah (Japan), Grayceon and My Last Day On Earth. I’ll be at the show so scream out my name and introduce me to your girlfriend. HAHAHA!!

This week I’m not having a GIGPOSTER artist on my show. You can check out the website at WWW.GIGPOSTERS.COM for more info on your favorite artist or bands posters. Also, I’m not having a radio show next week. I’ll be going off to some seminar for work. I’ll be back the following week with another poster artist from Gigposters.

As always, listen online at WWW.KSCU.ORG every Thursday 4TO7PM (PST) for the BEST in new Metal, Hardcore, Grind, Doom, Stoner, Rock, Punk, Garage, Noise Rock, Post-Everything and whatever else I want. Don’t forget, I also podcast my radio show and my interviews every week. Just go to the links to the right of you and click. Check ‘em out or listen online.

It's a new year everybody so, make sure to spread the word to all your friends in bands, record labels and anybody else to send music for possible radio airplay here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Have a cool weekend and take care. CHEERS!
