yeah im a big fan of X too, sounds like a show i would have enjoyed. weird that they're one of those bands that people that like stuff from that era
don't even like. heavy 50s rock and roll influence guitar wise, great band. heard of the bad livers but never heard them. as far as those annoying
hippie jam grass bands (phish, string cheese, etc), no fucking thanks. there's definitely some good contemporary stuff out there though like: james
king, del mccoury band (he played with monroe in the 60s), don paisley and the southern grass, johnny staats, lost and found, joe val, mike compton,
nashville bluegrass band, michael cleveland, gibson brothers, etc etc.

I dunno about whatever experience you had with 'em, but they were really fuckin' cool at the
show I was at. They hung out with the crowd and actually watched and danced to X even though they had been touring with them for quite a while now.
I'm always pleasantly surprised when I see bigger bands actually enjoying the show and not just doing their part of it and then going off to snort
coke in their van or whatever while other bands are playing. I talked to four of the five members of the Cobras and each and every one of them were
genuinely stoked to be there and to see that people were having that much fun at their show.
I've had more than my share of run ins with rock star assholes from my time promoting shows in Austin so I definitely know what you mean, but I didn't
get that vibe from them at all. I also think that you, of all people on here, would really dig their records, Geoff.

Oh, they have also changed all but two members of the band many times over, so it's quite possible that the person or people you had problems with
have nothing to do with them now.

really long story short
mostly cuz i cant remember all of it and was only there for half of it
about 5 or 6 years ago the bad vibes played with them at this place in philly called the kyber with this other band called hellblock 6, who we all
knew and all that.
it was a thursday night and anyone from philly will tell you its tough to get anyone to come out on a thursday night to see anyone.
when hellblock 6 played(first) the place was packed with people that both us and hellblock 6 bought to the show.
we played. i dont remember it at all.
i had to leave being on a thursday night and i think i had someone sitting with the kids.
turns out, place clears out, and theres maybe 20 people left to see the detroit cobras.
they dont show up until 1:30, a half hour before the place closes, play for 15 mins and demand all the money made at the door that night.
mark and jesse from my band have words with them and the sound guy.
we were garrenteed at least $100 for this show.
they gave us nothing that night because the detroit cobras thretened to have their booking agency pull all the bands they delt with from playing the
kyber.
things were said to mark from the one dude in the band...........
"do you know who my cousin(i think he said cousin) is? jack from thew white stripes!!"
mark says "i dont care. i want our 100 bucks"
blah blah
more words i cant recall
ends up with jesse spitting on the one dude who wanted to fight mark but didnt want to mess with jesse, even though mark would have killed this dude
too. jesse is just a bigger guy.
i forget all the details honestly
this is the best i can recall.
they said a ton of shit that was really lame and rockstar like.
even the faggot who worked at the khyber at the time confirmed all this from a different perspective and said they were fucked and that mark was
right.
you come at the king....you best not miss

Sounds like a fucked up situation, but I can't even imagine who would have thought booking that kind of line up together was a good idea. While I love
both The Bad Vibes and The Detroit Cobras, even I don't think that would be a good combination. Also, as I said, they've changed the line up so many
times aside from the two main members, both of whom are female, so I can't imagine that either of them were this guy that was being a dick. Doesn't
excuse the behavior and obviously, if they were pulling shit like that it's fucked up.
I would have done the same thing you guys did in that situation, no matter who the band was. And just for the record, fuck the White Stripes. Those
guys are supposed to be some kind of saviors of Rock 'N Roll and they're nothing but a crappy rip off of much better bands that never got the credit
they deserved. Same as The Strokes and all that shit. I would laugh in the face of anyone trying to take money promised to me because they're related
to any of those fuckers, or anyone else for that matter.

Tire Iron, I have a few Crypt Records samplers, you may want to check that shit out if you dig the Dirtbombs. I'm really digging alot of 60's garage
shit right now. I checked the Cobras out a few times and couldn't get into em a little too glammy for me. But what do I know, I still think Deadbolt
is the best band going

I'm all over
the Crypt stuff already, LOVE that shit man. The funny thing is, I coulda been one of the cool kids who got into that all when it was just starting up
since I played in a band with a kid who was way into it before anybody around us knew what it was. He was always tryin' to turn me on to alla that
shit, but I was too much of a HC head to dig it at all and now I'm kickin' myself tryin' to go back and pick up all these records I coulda had for
pennies that are now super rare collectors items.
As for The Detroit Cobras, there are many things in their sound, but glam is not really on that list. I'm not sure which album you heard, but try
starting with Baby or Mink, Rat, Or Rabbit and give it a few days to soak in before you make a final call.

I really like On File, a Scottish Oi! band, but I don't know anyone else who listens to them.
Its just straight up pogo rock a la Ejected , but I like the guy's voice.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?
