[ WIVES ]
L.A. trio coming out of the Smell universe, "a la Big Black, Black Flag, Men's Recovery Project, et al, WIVES are bastard fury and volume ... hyper-intelligent and incredibly impatient - Wives delivers the intense, bombastic rhythms alongside discordant noise guitar frenzy - pierced through with vehement shouted and spoken narrative." - Sam James Velde. Slow sometimes, then fast, real fucking loud. Long mike cables mean they're gonna be out in audience. A lot. Wives recently toured with Gibby Haynes from the Butthole Surfers (no shit, he still exists.) New record out on Cold Sweat Records.

[ BARR ] ... aka Brendan Fowler
BARR = x Dogg & Pony member Brendan Fowler, possibly the most positive rapper on the planet. Unbeleivably for real and quite the charmer. On loan from his new home in the Greater Los Angeles area.

[ 1999 ] ... aka E*Rock ... aka Eric Mast
E*Rock is the man behind Audio Dregs Records (with his Brother Evan aka E*Vax - who plays in the band Ratatat) & Thumbzine - and an oft described "hunky boho." Mr. Eric Mast is an artist/musician/zine maker/label owner/dj/record store manager etc - and as such is personally responsible for 99% of all the awesomeness that comes out of and remains in Portland, Oregon. Eric has this to say about his new band, 1999 -> "The new band is with dudes Josh from Point Line Plane (Skin Graft) on bass and Charlie Panther from The Planet The on guitar. The focus is on powerful, life-affirming, hit songs - but this will be a condensed one-man version of 1999, which is E*Rock (Audio Dregs) vocals+machines to replace the live band members." Eric is seriously one of the most inspiring gentlemen on the planet, this will be awesome. E*Rock also has released several amazing electronic records and tapes.

[ BOBBY BIRDMAN ]
"Future Crooner, Bobby Birdman (Rob Kieswetter) lays his golden voice upon pillows softly synthed, handy clapped, crunked up, hummed, hollered, chopped, strummed and sung-a-long. Come together, transform dancefloor, basement or beach blanket. "You brought a laptop to the beach?" "Yeah, but I might not use it." Bobby Birdman has released two full length albums, "Let Me In" and "Born Free Forever" (HUSH Records) and 2 EP's, "Exhausted, The Cost Of" and "Heart Caves" (States Rights Records) and has toured in North America and Europe with the likes of YACHT, The Lucky Dragons, Little Wings, Calvin Johnson, The Microphones/Mt. Eerie, The Wrist and Pistols, The Blow, VVRSSNN and Thanksgiving." - E*Rock

[ PRINCESS ]
"Chicago dance super noise weirdness" sez Brendan Fowler. "Princess is a two man band with a hundred piece sound. Using guitars, keyboards, drums, banjo, and various thrift-store noise-makers, Princess prattles through battles between party politic cliques from hip hop to art rock crits bits and bits of foggy mountain violet satin water fountains. Princess willfully pushes musical contradiction and confusion to its elegant limits. " - Centerstage Chicago
-- MP3 --> http://www.zibbi.com/mp3s.htm

[ THE DEAD SCIENCE ]
"Freaky jazz-pop with cha-cha rhythm, strangle-you cello screeches, offbeat rock with weird harmonies – is pretty great. Plus, The Dead Science will make you feel really smart!" - the Stranger "The [Dead] Science's effortless, suave pop smolders at a spooky cabaret volume." - Willamette Week. on Absolutely Kosher Records.

Who are the special guests at the Moldy Peaches show?

Taxi Dancing in the Soft Prison (Ben Boyer), Thursday, 14 October 2004 16:12 (twenty-one years ago)

supposedly it will be the Libertines, but The Peaches haven't been able to say for absolute sure.

I'd love to know what took the MPs so long to play together again.
