Fenton Sent ot word that his MP3 Site has all new songs on it!    So if you are in need of some new tunes (or hell lets face it, this is Fenton's stuff here, IF you are alive you need to go check these out!)
You remember Testosterone Kills right?   Pablo and Tim singing with acustic guitars behind their voices.  Well rember fondly cause that is no more.  Testosterone Kills has morphed into an electro-folk incarnation that still includes Pablo and Tim, the guitar and SEQUENCER/DRUM MACHINE SYNTHS.   I have heard some of the new sound from their soon to be released CD and would recommend that you check em out again!  To do so goto the Sidewalk cafe in New York City this Saterday (June 22nd) at 10:00 PM.  For more info please check out the GIGS board located HERE!
The Raven Open Stage's site has posted a third show.   March 27th of this year.  check it out, download it and listen to it again.  It includes many artists including Joie/ DBG and Toby Goodshank who have pages here.  Enjoy!!
Linda made a shout out that the official release date for the Anti Zine will be Monday June 3 at The Sidewalk Cafe.  It could be just a one time experiment, Maybe not!  100 copies have been printed of the Anti Zine and it's about 15 pages, single sided.   If you live far away (like me) from NYC and are interested contact Linda for more information.

Word on the street is that Timothy Dark is working on the follow-up to his kickin' Dark Warrior album.  Look for some production on it from James "the quiet genius" Broughel and Major Matt Mason USA.  Be on the lookout!
I will be making a trip up to New York City with one of my best Friends Mad Patter from June 9th to June 13th.  I am going to be at the antihoot (my First) on June 10th.  I will have a full report on my trip on my return.

Regina is trying to put together a small 10 song CD, before She leaves for France for two months on June 27th.  This is spur of the moment folks.  It's going to have 10 songs that she never planned to release on it, She recorded them at her friends studio on Christmas DAy, 2001.  It  might be called SONGS december 25, 2001 or "the two jews on christmas session"   Look out for it!
Grey shot out word that he will be playing a RARE SOLO ACOUSTIC SET at ARLENE'S GROCERY, located at 95 Stanton below Houston, on Wednsday night, June 5 at 11PM.  And that if you want to catch a glimpse of some of the songs off his yet to be released CD KAMIKAZE as those songs will dominate the set.
