Tonight at Lone Wolf it’s 45 Adapters, Screaming Rebel Angels and Dirty Spiders. Reggae and soul dance party after the gig with DJs Pickabar and Dolanite.
…best of all, it’s all free!
I’ve written about my punk band 45 Adapters before, but I’ve completely forgotten to mention the fact that our debut EP has been released!
You can pick up a copy at Interpunk, Longshot Music or Contra Records.
It feels very rewarding scratching another item off of my life goals list. My high school band BOTB never completed our planned release. We did appearing on a compilation and a split 7” with The Templars, but nothing under our own name. After that band broke up, I assumed I’d never get to put any music out.
It’s been a long road since then, but I’m delighted to finally have this artifact out there in the world. I’ve always daydreamed about some record nerd finding my scratchy old record in a discount bin in some far off future and now that’s actually a possibility.
Onward and upward!
Here’s a new 45AD interview for those of you who don’t get enough of my ramblings here in pickabarland.
More substantial blog posts soon!
…except maybe for playing music live in the outdoors on a sunny day.
I mentioned last year that my band, 45 Adapters had broken up. I also mentioned that I “play in a band” in my post on performance enhancing drugs, but I never went into any detail. Well, for the non-detectives among you, consider this the official Pickabarland announcement: 45 Adapters are back!
We’ve played about three shows so far with our new guitarist Knighthawk and our sound is really starting to come together.
We even got some coverage for our song “Metropolitans”.
BTW, if any of you actually listen to the MP3s I post here, you’ll always be one step ahead of everyone else when it comes time to sing along with new 45AD tunes.
