Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: Shrunken Head and Hank Watson

DanO (dannyseventen) - 11 Sep 2004 00:49:43

The Ice Box song is called Slap. I actually check out their site quite often to
see if they're passing through town or anywhere close. I like pretty much the
whole Halloween Hootenanny album, but my fav is "Werewolves on Wheels." The Born
Losers must have been a temporary band made from guys in the other bands.
Hellbilly Deluxe was a major label, but the Halloween comp. was on Zombie's own
Zombie-A-Go-Go records. He's supposed to start it back up again, but too much
other stuff I suppose. Can't find much on the Legendary Invisible Men. Maybe
they......disappeared? Did you hear "Hobo Babylon?" I haven't picked it up yet.

Yeah, the Hank Watson one is good too. How about the one about the Cokes
in the icebox, the Lucky Strikes, and bring my the head of Alfredo
Garcia? I'm not sure what that one's called, but I listen to Shrunken
Head just for that one sometimes.
I really like the Tiki Man CD too, especially "You Don't Scare Me", "The
Meat", and "Mambo Room."
The first time I ever saw Deadbolt, they wore their usual getup of black
jeans and tee shirts, leather vests with the patches, boots, and the dark
glasses. They made their usual jokes. When they played "Tiki Man," all
the guys wore carved tikis around their necks that had glowing eyes. Les
Vegas had shrunken heads and bones bouncing around the outside of his
bass drum. Between every song, they gave their neat hairdoos a hefty
helping of Aqua Net, then lit a fresh cigarette, which hung from their
mouths throughout the next song. After that, in conjunction with the
display of sparks, I knew I had a new favorite band. I quit seeing their
shows after Les Vegas left, but I imagine the shows are still full of
laughs and audience interaction.
If you have a chance, catch one of their shows. It's well worth it. You
can see their tour dates on their web site. They have a message forum at
downinthelab.com.
I have that Halloween Hootenanny CD too. It's great because it has the
Bomboras (I always liked their fiery organ act), Satan's Pilgrims,
Frenchy (which is the band in which East Bay Ray from the Dead Kennedys
is in), the Amazing Crowns (excellent rockabilly), The Reverend Horton
Heat, etc. Rob Zombie put that one out around the same time Head
Shrinkin' Fun (Bomboras) and A Haunting We Will Go Go (Ghastly Ones) came
out. I think Rob did his Hellbilly Deluxe CD on that label too, but I
think those are the only ones on Zombie A Go Go. Maybe someone else in
this group knows more about this.
Ex-Bomboras members + others formed the Legendary Invisible Men. Has
anyone heard about them lately?
