Thanks for the groovy news flash there, Ted.
It'll be okay man. We all gots to do something with our filthy, miserable, meaningless little existence. These are people they grew up with coming to their local pit and they love it, so do the fans. Gwar are regular jackoffs in costume and we all know it, so do they, just roll with it.
The guy from tool?! Use his name! Maynard James Keenan
These guys are all (former) art students from Richmond (VCU sculpture dept). One of them used to be an exhibits production sherpa at the local science museum. Quiet little guy.
Yawn. What folks will do for $$.
"Yes, it's about as rock-and-roll as the checkout lane at Kohl's." *snicker*
Very cool article. I wish I had the funds to have something pressed here. Perhaps a kickstarter deal, or a winning lottery ticket would help, haha.
Seriously though, I will keep them in mind, see what it takes, and hopefully find a way to make it happen someday :)
Would be way more worth it than a batch of compact discs.
As a fellow fan of good vinyl, this is a great article. Sounds like some very good folks doing something really great.
Now a year later, Mike is re-recording Soul Coughing tunes in a crowd-funding campaign...

...and received 118% of the desired pledge amount in less than 24 hours!
Nice to see him reconnecting with his past instead of repudiating it. Maybe he can start healing instead of hurting - and make some money!
(It sure will be interesting to see what the writer credits look like.)
A better question would be "why do retards of a certain young age like coldplay or Death Cab?"
KC's own Hearts of Darkness pressed their second album "Shelf Life" on 200g vinyl from Quality Record Pressing last year. Gary Salstrom did the plating. Copies are available at Zebedees and Vinyl Renaissance.
@Roscoe Thanks -- fixed now.

To the author:
1) The pressing plant in Germany is Pallas, not "Palace"
http://www.pallas-group.de/vinyl-01.php
One of the world's great pressing plants
2) Your e-mail address on this site is out of date. Tried to send you this info via e-mail but it got bounced back.
3) Great article. Love the QRP pressings that Chad is putting out. A Love Supreme at 45 RPM is out of this world. Same for their Cat Stevens.
Not a tribute project: https://www.facebook.com/events/3414423092…
Is KC ever gonna be known for anything else musically besides tribute projects??
Monta At Odds will be playing Breathe and Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 2. Surprise. And someone is playing time and money so wear your 101 t-shirt
Very cool and good luck. You guys have some outrageous gear on your website.
"When will you people wake up to this crisis!" Shouldn't there have been a question mark after this statement? Just what is the author trying to impart to us executroid, god fearing, infinity driving, applebees chowing, facebook and dog loving softies?
Hudnall, please say what you mean instead of dancing around. At least you have a doctor and health insurance you can summon up in time of need. Go ahead you can just say it. These events are just designed to draw in one percenters the likes of Mitt Romney and The Pitch has no balls like it used to have before it rated hot twenty somethings and fruity drinks. Now go out and expose something. I will be waiting at the Lexus dealer, K?

Just saw the movie, watched it with some of my children. Watched it again with my wife. Will watch it again with the rest of my children. Would love to meet the man, see him play. Would gladly drive from upstate NY to Detroit just to shake this mans hand. I admire him greatly.

Re: “Streetside: Horribly disgusting band Gwar debuts its barbecue sauce at Grinders”
Kansas City is one of the greatest BBQ cities in the world, what better place to launch your BBQ sauce. GWAR is one of the most exciting acts in Rock & Roll history with a legacy of GBQ's that spans over 25 years (http://gwarbq.com). GWAR is not a sell out band with lunch boxes like KISS. What some people will do for Love.
