Shithawks with Lasers & Fast & Shit Tomorrow, Andre Williams on Friday.

That one is tomorrow... Monday Night! Double Door is closed, watch their entire production staff, minus Seth Wilson... guess we should have added him to the bill. Sorry Seth.

Industry people... MONDAY NIGHT gig... FREE show... booze with people you know and like (pretend to like, if you're an asshole... or if we're assholes to you). Our Red Line Tap gigs have always been a blast and I see no reason for this one to differ.


Want a bad-ass weekend show at Double Door? With world-reknowned R&B legend, Andre Williams ("Come on let me see you shake a tailfeather...")...




We're playing last, but that's only because Mr. Williams REQUESTS to play 3rd, and I'll give the man whatever he wants.


If you're not familiar with Andre Williams... or with The Goldstars for that matter, maybe you should click on those links and check them out. You can't not like them. You can't not like us, either... I'll cut you. Seriously, The Midnight Shows, and JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound ARE NO FUCKING JOKE. Serious soul happens on Friday. Fucking mayhem happens on Monday. Fuck it go to both.


In other news... message me your email address so I can add you to our new mailing list. Mailings will not be excessive, mainly pertaining to upcoming shows and releases... I know a lot of you aren't on this myspace contraption all that much.

Do it.

Bible Of The Devil Guitarist Read "All the Harry Potter Books"

Pontiac Cafe - Through an anonymous source, it was learned that guitarist for the local classic metal band, Bible of the Devil, has not only seen all the Harry Potter movies, but has also read all of the books. Mainly on the toilet.

Nate Perry (pictured below with Harry Potter book), may or may not have returned our call on the matter... we've all be crank stoned all the time since we hear this from the anonymous (his girlfriend) source.



The MEATY OKRA expose on minor celebrities who love Harry Potter books will continue... even faster once we run out of dope.

Lasers and Fast and Shit





$2 OFF WITH ROCKPASS

First Friday formed in the autumn of 1967 at the University of Notre Dame. They practiced in the basement of Dillon Hall, where they found a stack of blank posters with the heading First Friday (meant to advertise First Friday mass in the dorm chapel) and chose their name in order to capitalize on the "free" promotional materials. They recorded their debut album in 1969 in Nashville, on James Brown's original label King records. (This album has sold recently on ebay for over $400.00!) Perhaps the best overlooked rock band of the late 60's, and featuring grammy winning engineer and producer Andy Wallace (Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine, Jeff Buckley), First Friday reunites to play Double Door on Saturday October 4th.

He sure can play that guitar, though. See also: The Trashingtons.

TV's Steve Wilkos Receives 3rd Degree Chairmaster Belt.

Steve Wilkos, of Springer Show spin-off, The Steve Wilkos Show, featuring Springer security guard, Steve Wilkos, has been awarded the Coldcock Jones Triple Black Belt for Excellence in Chair Mastery. While Wilkos routinely throws chairs and denies them to his guests on his show, frequently child and/or wife abusers, the video below paints the true spirit of what makes him a Chair Master®.





The set, which accepted the chair and was once believed to be made out of carved granite, has apparently been repaired, as Steady Rock and I didn't notice any holes in it on today's show.

Rival News Source Gives Poor Review.

Rival Chicago news source, Undergroundbee.com, shocked Shithawk nation when he posted a less that gleaming review of the bands performance February, 21 with The Dirtbombs at Double Door. Actually, it was just tonight that anyone in our camp even saw the review.


"It's really kind of exciting, as it's the first written review of the band's live performance to be found," explained band manager, Boo Boo McSwain.


"I think I found it on the bottom of page three in a google search for Coldcock Jones & The Shithawks: 69 Greatest Hits EP. I was excited at first because I was stoned and thought it was the Modesto Bee, of Modesto, CA."


Music editorialist for Underground Bee, Robert Loerzel, wrote about The Shithawks' performance...


"The first band of the night, Coldcock Jones and the Shithawks, was just as vile and stupid as you would guess from the name. The singer ended up practically yelling at audience members who didn't appreciate his band's subpar Ted Nugent wankery. Maybe it was all a joke, but even if you looked at ironically as some sort of performance art, it was a painful experience."


Front house sound engineer at Double Door, Jesse Ewan, had an interesting perspective on the venue's audience that night.


"Everyone in front of the sound booth seemed to be having the time of their life, while everyone behind the booth seemed to be impatiently waiting for (The Shithawks) to finish." The publication's editor must have been in the back of the room.





Band front man and Peoria Blues Legend®, Johnny "Coldcock" Jones, has encountered more than a few of these crowds. Those who have followed his live career have seen hostile audiences (both pussy and aggressive) react to the performer's aggressive delivery. When asked how he felt about two groups of audience members, the band's drummer, Clarence "Steady Rock" Jameson, claimed, "That's exactly how I want it."


Jones pointed to the fact that he, "doesn't care," what anyone has to say, unless they are influential and/or attractive.


He went on to add that until Mr. Loerzel is either more attractive and/or more influential than Juliette Lewis (a fan of the band), the artist would do whatever he could to help the blogger reach people that care about blogs.





"When it comes down to it, we're in this together, even though he might not understand what I do," Jones pondered, "sometimes those who think more about entertainment, just don't understand those who think more about entertaining."
