bigtikidude Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 25566 Anaheim(So.Cal.)U.S.A.	Posted on Nov 16 2006 02:54 PM I'm sure I've said this before, but I re-iterrate it again. Im not a huge fan of vocals in surf. but if they are done like the Volcanics do them, very very up beat, and with tons of rippin' reverb guitar behind it, then I think they are great. I actually get into and sing along with them live gasp, shock,horror And Im sure I will be this Sat., when we see them again.

Posted on Nov 20 2006 08:49 PM another killer high energy set, that the fans didn't wanna let them off the stage, the other night. the only down side was sittin thru the 2 hours of the house Blues band, before. Geeez how I wish they were with the Bomboras on New years. Jeff(bigtikidude) — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

Man, no kidding. Anyone see "Ghost World?" Think Blueshammer, only 10x worse. You know a blues band is authentic when people start doing the robot in front of the stage. -Warren — That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. Top

I have no beef with Gwar. At least they're interesting in a unique way, rather than a "Oh, look--they're playing 'Texas Flood' note-for-note. Only with a lot more notes. And tapping" kind of way. I think short of firing live ammunition into the audience, it would have been impossible for the Volcanics to put on a less-enjoyable show than Blueshammer. (Or whatever they were called.) -Warren — That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. Top

I know you told me in person, but this is a discussion forum, so discuss,... It was fun. I couldn't hear Frankie's playing all that well, which seemed kind of funny considering how many times I'd heard about how loud they are. The vocals were real good. I think they basically ruined "Ooh Poo Pa Doo" for me--all the other versions I've heard just seem lame in comparison. I'd see them again for sure--hopefully at a show where they aren't following a strong argument for mandatory euthanasia. Maybe next time they can play on the same bill as Gwar, rather than across the street from them. One can hope, at least. -Warren — That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it.

Yeah when Volcanics play smaller clubs like Spikes or Anarchy Library its crazy loud. But Yesteryears was a huge hall. and I don't think that the PA guy, by eveidence of the (squeeling mics, and the one mic that was only commin thru the Monitors), probably didn't have Frankie's mic'd amp comin thru the Main PA speakers or if it was, it was down to low. sighhhhh, lame PA guys, one downfall of good shows sometimes.
