Stag-O-Lee joins the Sjock festival!

posted March 7th, 2012

The Sjock is an amazing rock & roll festival that takes place for the 37th time! Right on the weekend of July 6.-8. when Germany will win the euro championship! Do not worry, even deep in the heart of Belgium they have tv-sets to watch the final! We might bring our own camping satellite dish plus big screen tv, since Stag-O-Lee has a little stall on the festival ground offering our releases for sale at a very special price plus other goodies that R-O-C-K.

So far the line-up features: Hank 3, The Bad Backbones, Hipbone Slim and the Kneetremblers, Gizzelle, The Lonesome Drifters, The Bellfuries, The Blasters, Kneejerk Reactions, Frantic Flintstones and Demented Are Go. The latter two  will play the psychobilly Friday. Main days are Saturday and Sunday and as usual the headliners will only be booked at the very last minute. There is lots more to come! Check it out under www.sjock.com!

Tav Falco - 4 stars in Mojo!

posted February 6th, 2012

Here’s the 4-star review from this months‘ MOJO: „Memphis punk-a-billy classic from 1980, co-directed by Alex Chilton.
Quite why Chilton, four years on from Big Star, immediately post-Cramps, got embroiled with Falco – a lisping Arkansan fantasist with delusions of Elvishood – isn’t clear. Maybe Tav’s performance art pipedreaming tickled Chilton, but when the two set about exhuming the buried passions of early rock`n´roll, sparks flew. Having fired their sticksman after abortive sessions at Sun (with Jim Dickison on piano), Panther Burns cut these one-takes at Ardent, with Chilton often covering on drums. She’s The One That Got It teeters ever collapse-wards, LX’s reverb-maxed solo staggering in and out of abstraction. Tav’s croon on Ary Barroso’s Brazil, meanwhile, is way off. A stray fife-and-drum corps only multiplies the chaos, but therein lies the thrill of this wayward masterpiece. Also included: 1981’s Blow Your Top EP, with future Bad Seed Jim Sclavunos commanding the beat.“ (Andrew Perry)
