I can't believe my last blog entry was about 10 months ago! <br /><br />Just to update you on some stuff... I am happy to announce that I am bringing the printed version of REAL BOSS HOSS back! Yes, friends, you read that correctly! After 10 years I've decided to bring back the print version so you can laugh, cry, scream, and hate me all over again... I have lost contact with most of the contributors from that first issue, but do not fret, friends. We have some DYNAMITE new writers and contributors to add to the fun!!<br /><br />We are also sort of doing live shows again... not as regular as in the past, but we found a new home over at VIVA CANTINA in Burbank, CA. We recently did a few showcases there with tremendous success!! We hosted a few record release parties: The South Bay Surfers back in July, Thee Cormans and Thee Tee Pees back in October and an out of control 50th birthday party for none other than our soul brother-in-arms Colonel Rob Schaffner from legendary MONDO VIDEO AU GO GO which packed the house to the ceiling rafters with amazing sets by THEE CORMANS, THE BLOODY BRAINS, THE SOUTH BAY SURFERS, and the legendary KIDS OF WIDNEY HIGH. Our last shindig which happened last weekend was packed before the first band hit the stage... by 9:30 the place was shoulder-to-shoulder! We hosted another party to welcome the great Michael Kaiser back to California (unfortunately he's not here to stay - he's only visiting)... Our best pal Russell Quan's new band THE CHUCKLEBERRIES, which includes guitarist extraordinaire JAY ROSEN (Muskrats, Legendary Stardust Cowboy, Dukes of Hamburg), suave bassist/backing vocalist Dave Kurtz, and singer/dancer/all around awesome dude Dave Seabury RIPPED it up!! With thee mighty Herman Senac on drums, THE BLOODY BRAINS left jaws on the floor with their fury! THEE CORMANS again blew the roof off the joint! I love those guys!! Our Deutsch pals and REAL BOSS HOSS facves, THE TEUTONICS again left the crowd wanting more... and our new pals THE BLACK BOOTS were an awesome new addition to our family.<br /><br />I promise to pay more attention and do more updates as stuff happens...<br /><br />Stay tuned for more rock n roll!!REAL BOSS HOSS!!!!http://www.blogger.com/profile/12409401306589513847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-890051228601540481.post-24151264804185743562011-04-19T11:15:00.000-07:002011-04-19T11:28:04.141-07:00THIS WEEK!

THE DUKES OF HAYWARD (formerly Hamburg - they moved to Hayward, CA) are doing a special LA show for yours truly to celebrate my 38th year of life. Along with THE DUKES OF HAYWARD will be more awesomeness from the Bay Area (not sure who) and the best of the best from LA.

I'm bored. What happened to rock n roll in LA? "<a href="http://thegirlwiththebighair.com/">Girl With the Big Hair</a>" seems to be the only one doing rock n roll shows. There's plenty of "DJ nights" in LA... sure they can be fun, but what the fuck? I can drink beer at home and spin records. Plus from the few I've been to, the "clientele" is pretty lame.<br /><br />I think I'm so bored that I think I'm going to put together a show or two this year.

The main reason we started doing shows was to bring some excitement back to LA... bring some of my favorite bands that no one was booking back to LA... Bands from my beloved San Francisco scene - The Phantom Surfers, The Flakes, The Bippies, etc. - my favorite local bands like Satan's Cheerleaders and The South Bay Surfers... <br /> <br />I would like to think that we shook up some stuff down here in dull Los Angeles for a few years and introduced many people to new bands and hopefully managed to infect some kids into starting new bands themselves... Unfortunately things seem to be going backwards now... Things seem be going back to how they were when we first kick-started Real Boss Hoss, but I don't have the energy or the health right now to continue the fight... I hope someone else picks up where I left off and continues the primitive rock n roll fight!!<br /> <br />I would like to thank all the bands who played Real Boss Hoss shows, the DJs who spun killer stuff, James Beck for always making a show fun, all the people who helped and supported the Real Boss Hoss shows with promotion, buying t-shirts, etc., making flyers and posters, the venues who gave us a chance to do our thing... it was fun!!<br /> <br />Special thanks to my wife Melinda for all her help and support and very special thanks to the following bands, DJs, and friends: Mike Lucas, Russell Quan, Brett Stillo, Shannon Whitney-Owen, Nick and Ben Simich, Edgar Rodriguez, Sharkey, Ben Day, Jonny Whiteside, Falling James, Kai Roath for always putting up out of town bands, Michael Kaiser, Brennan (BTMC), Mondo Video Au Go Go, Norma Jean & The Eye, The Be Neats, Rock n Roll Adventure Kids, The Phantom Surfers, The Flakes, The LaTeenos, Satan's Cheerleaders, The South Bay Surfers, The Jinxes, The Trashwomen, Thee Cormans, The Bippies, Sir Dance A Lot, Thee Fine Lines, The Knights of the New Crusade, The Chopsticks, The Legendary Stardust Cowboy, Jimmy Angel, The Okmoniks, The Guilty Hearts, The Khans, The Del Lames, The Red Barons, The Go Nuts, Deke Dickerson's All Star Frat Band, The Boars, The Thingz, The Barbary Coasters, The Sadist V, Da Killa Whales, Beethoven & The Psychedelic Daisy Orchestra, The Traditional Fools, St. Jorge & the Dragons, Tristan & the Tramps, The Worried Minds, The Shruggs, Th' Losin' Streaks, Nikki Corvette, The A Bones, Roy Loney, Haunted George, Those Lordsburg Lads, Jail Weddings, The Hexxers, Las Primitivas/Tuff Titties, Mark & The Escorts, Thee Ambertones, The Au Go Go Karts, The Teutonics, The Swiss Family Skiers, The Hysterians, Les Hormones, The Troublemakers, Thee Crucials, The Baci Galoopis, John Schooley, Special Ed, Some Dudes, The Dazes, Wounded Lion, Wild Weekend, Slow Poisoner, The Devilettes, Tony the Tyger, Freakstik13, Audrey Moorehead, DJ B In Her Bonnet, Alberto Sol, St. Jorge, DJ Ben Corman, Arlo and Gus at Mr. T's Bowl, The Stagger Inn, The Ramada Inn, The Elks Lodge, Annie's Social Club, The Doll Hut (where we got our start), Kaiser Records, Slovenly Records, Repent Records, Norton Records, Hook or Crook, Brat Store, Wes & "Trash-o-matic A Go Go," Reverend Dan & "Music for Nimrods," Uncle Tim & "The Bomb Shelter," Allan Larman, Howie Pyro, Joe Escalante, Michael Kaiser and "Radioblivion," Brat Store, Don's Music, Rudos & Rubes, Tugboat Studios, LA Record, every sponsor who bought an ad from us, every DJ who plugged our shows, every person who reposted our bulletins or mentioned us in blogs, and last but certainly not least - <em><strong>every single one of you</strong></em> who came to a show and supported the bands and this little scene we started...

Led by drummer and vocalist, Jane Satan, they have been going at it for more than 22 friggin' years!! The current line-up has original guitarist and fuzz extraordinaire Mark Chapman back in the band after a 10+ year absence and bassist/vocalist Scarlet O'Horror... this current line-up has been pretty solid for about 8+ years now (which is a first for <a com="" img="" gifhref="http://www.myspace.com/thesatanscheerleaders">Satan's Cheerleaders</a>). They've had quite a number of members go through the ranks including Candy Del Mar (The Cramps), Steve Pallow (The Beguiled, Necessary Evils, Haunted George), Gina Brune, the Michael J. Fox doppelganger Wade Kramer, and even legendary horror hostess <ahttp: com="" img="" gif="" href="http://www.cultsirens.com/vampira/vampira.htm"><a href="http://www.cultsirens.com/vampira/vampira.htm">VAMPIRA</a> to name but a few... They have <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/satanscheerleaders/disc.htm">released</a> 4 CDs and a handful of 45s on <a href="http://www.sympathyrecords.com/home.shtml">Sympathy for the Record Industry</a> in the 1990s and a number of self-released 45s/EPs in the 1980s, 1990s and one from a few years ago. They are truly a breath of fresh air in this stale and phony so-called "garage" scene in Los Angeles where most of the bands take themselves waaaaay too seriously...<br /><br />I've been lucky to see many <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/satanscheerleaders/">Satan's Cheerleaders</a> shows throughout the decades and I gotta say that they are on top of their game at the moment... their live set consists of a bizarre multimedia psychedelic reaction to biker movies, the Black Dahlia, the occult, with a heavy dose of fuzzy garage punk noise.<br /><br />If you ever see them playing your town - GO SEE THEM! You'll thank me afterwards...</ahttp:>REAL BOSS HOSS!!!!http://www.blogger.com/profile/12409401306589513847noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-890051228601540481.post-90755096198701415452008-08-27T22:38:00.000-07:002008-08-29T11:11:19.753-07:00REAL BOSS HOSS now has a blog...Hello friends...<br /><br />REAL BOSS HOSS now has an official blog!! I will be posting any upcoming news about REAL BOSS HOSS shows, BOSS HOSS RECORDS, or anything else that pops into my tiny head...<br /><br />I guess I should introduce myself and give a tiny bit of history of what REAL BOSS HOSS is... <br /><br />Let give you a little history of <a href="http://www.myspace.com/realbosshoss">REAL BOSS HOSS</a>... <br /><br />REAL BOSS HOSS originated as a fanzine that I created in 1996. The name of the fanzine came from none other than my best friend, Mr. Michael Kaiser of the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/radioblivion ">Radioblivion</a> podcast, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/cosmicvoodoo">Cosmic Voodoo </a>and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/kaiserrecords">Kaiser Records</a>. We were brainstorming one night for a title and it just came to him! I thought the name was genius and it sounded great and thus REAL BOSS HOSS was born! The first issue was only 5 pages and was essentially just reviews of a few shows and records and some rants about crap I was into at the moment and a short article on the stupidity of some local talk radio hosts. I only made 100 copies and distributed them at shows and record shops. Unlucky for me, my computer crapped out and I lost that original issue – I didn’t even have a hard copy of it... so whoever has a copy of that issue truly has a collector’s item because I don't even have one! I didn't have a computer, was low on funds, and generally feeling defeated, the fanzine took a 3 year break...<br /><br />After living through the nauseating and clique-ish mid to late-90s Los Angeles “garage scene” and “lounge” explosion, I just couldn't take it anymore and in February 2000, I let loose a full 28-page blast of all things phony! With the help from a couple of friends, REAL BOSS HOSS took no prisoners; we took on every poseur, jack-off, and lame LA hipster! The fanzine had lots of rants, reviews, and an impressive interview with the legendary (and my personal hero) DON CRAINE of <a href="http://www.angelfire.com/rock3/yardbird_sect/downliners_sect.html">THE DOWNLINERS SECT</a>!! The fanzine caused such uproar within the "close-knit" Los Angeles garage scene that your humble editor was threatened repeatedly through emails and letters. I tried to get another issue off the ground, but never got around to it due to issues with funds and poor time management (laziness). In the mean time, REAL BOSS HOSS was getting quite known in other parts of the world. I got countless emails from garage rockers and mods in places like England, Scotland, Germany, Holland, Mexico, the East Coast, San Francisco, San Diego, etc. Who knows how the hell it got overseas – or even San Diego!! I only made 500 copies and distributed them solely at shows or record stores. This time I had two back-ups made!!<br /><br />I started putting shows together in 2002 with the help of Vito Lorenzi. At first I didn’t use the REAL BOSS HOSS name and just helped him put together some punk rock shows, but little by little I started inserting in garage bands like Satan’s Cheerleaders into his shows and then decided one day to just do my own REAL BOSS HOSS shows and have him help me out… so in March 2004 the very first REAL BOSS HOSS show was held at the Doll Hut in Anaheim with my old friends The Phantom Surfers, Satan’s Cheerleaders, The South Bay Surfers, and The Bippies. I’ve been doing it ever since and have consistently, in my opinion, been putting on thee best rock n roll shows that Los Angeles has ever seen!! We have been hosts to so many AMAZING bands such as: The Phantom Surfers, The Flakes, The Knights of the New Crusade, Thee Fine Lines, Satan’s Cheerleaders, The Bippies, The Chopsticks, The Legendary Stardust Cowboy, The Okmoniks, Jimmy Angel, The Del Lames, The Guilty Hearts, St. Jorge & the Dragons, The Khans, Sir Dance A Lot, The Boars, Deke Dickerson’s All Star Frat Band, The Rock n Roll Adventure Kids, The Teenage Harlets, The Swiss Family Skiers, The Checkers, The Lateenos, The Teutonics, The Jinxes, The Spanks, The Traditional Fools, The Be Neats, The Shruggs, Beethoven and the Psychedelic Daisy Orchestra, The A Bones, Wounded Lion, Haunted George, Th' Losin' Streaks, Thee Cormans, Nikki Corvette, The Dazes, Special Ed, and our unofficial “house band” – The South Bay Surfers. Of course a REAL BOSS HOSS show is not complete without our very own Master of Ceremonies (and one of my best friends) – the world famous comedian James Beck!REAL BOSS HOSS!!!!http://www.blogger.com/profile/12409401306589513847noreply@blogger.com1
