Fun vs. Jealous Tentacles

Behold. A few photos from the Cancer Magazine Art/Music Fest. Jan. 29th 2010. I will be adding more as I get them. Sadly however, Alley Kat Jazz Lounge (location of the event) fell victim to Rialto's chronic illness that seems to cripple any attempts at bettering the city by means of art/culture/fun/anything really worthwhile and for the most part positive or potentially damaging to the old stalwarts and proponents of mediocrity and stagnation. Seems they may be out of commission for a few months due to alleged violations. Seems there were too many people rudely overlooking neighboring pub "O'leary's" which led to overwhelming embarrassment. Poor guys. Early into one of the busiest nights Alley Kat has ever had, local law enforcers of doom (aka Rialto P.D.) along with the fire marshal proceeded to spread a sickening haze throughout the establishment causing patrons to gaze dubiously, hide their weed and/or simply and disappointingly leave. The overall claim was that Alley Kat simply had too many people there. Now I for one have been frequenting the vast watering holes peppering the Inland Empire for the better part of a decade. Ooh, some of these places are really classy. Bro's and their veritable ho's, along with wannabe's of all sorts of various flavors, flock to cultural epicenters such as the "Yardhouse" in cakey-faced droves nightly. These innovative, intellectual havens flourish mainly because of their ability to never ever EVER become crowded. You never have to spend 20 minutes trying to procure a Bud Light. EVER! Anyhoo, Alley Kat needs to learn a lesson. Lesson being: that shit just don't fly in Rialto. Though it was pretty easy to move around, dance and be merry in there as well as reasonably easy to get a drink, city enforcers decided they needed to crack down before things got out of hand. But what do we do with all these extra people? Well they can easily mosey on down to "O'Leary's Pub" owned by Rialto councilman and champion community builder Ed Scott. Thanks Ed. Where would downtown Rialto be without you. You are the shining light of a rather dismal, businessless downtown area and with that pesky Alley Kat finally neutered, you can continue to run a fine establishment that harbors staunch old vatos and rednecks while the youth in the community continue to turn to gangs and drugs and violence and teen pregnancy and theft and lack of motivation and hopelessnes and... (J.D. hold your head up)

Hooliganism

Hello all. I'm very excited about the new promo video we've been working on for Son Of Cecil. This is going to the first of a series of videos for "A Princess In A World Of Dragons" EP. Since I'm ridiculously impatient, I thought I'd give you all a little sample. Long live hill bombs and beer guts!

Been awhile since I've posted anything. Been a crazy couple of months yet here we have some news. Peep game.



Hopefully "IdiotFace" will be available for immediate consumption by mid February. 19 raw tracks full of under produced song dabblings and brain scratching 100% free. Posters will be given to the first 100 downloaders (possibly more we'll have to see).

Promototron

email me photos of you or your friends making IdiotFaces. brian@partywarrecords.com. Go here as well. partywarrecords.blogspot.com. Love you!

Check out the Golden Boys

HELL YEAH! GAZA IZ HERE!

GAZA's "Dada Flannél" is finally here. 21 tracks of Hip Hop bumps, blips, bangs, and bliss. Click on that pic over there to the right or put this in your browserelli! Oh and Son Of Cecil and The Golden Boys Quartet are playing at the Alley Kat Jazz Lounge located at 134 S. Riverside Ave Rialto CA 92376. Hope to see all present. We'll have GAZA and Son Of Cecil cd's at the show.

-Adios

Gauze- Uh Update

Just to let you all know. The Gaza album will be pushed back a few days and should be available the 3rd or 4th of November. I know you can't wait and you're salivating all over your dirty Chucks. Don't worry it will be here SOON!

Da Boof

Building a vocal booth 101: If you are unable to do this at your house, use all necessary methods of charm to convince a friend to build it at his. Example: Translu drummer Ryan Marks just so happened to have a small add-on room extending from his garage that he used to practice in. Over the last few years it has been somewhat neglected so why not put some good use to it right? Since Translu is working on releasing an EP soon, having a local, free-of-charge vocal recording facility is a benefit and necessity. Ryan agrees so last night Sam and I began the insulation process by encasing whole room with used carpet padding. Cheap and easy is the key here. Soon we'll be swapping out Ryan's hollow door with something solid to further entrap our melodious vocal exploits. Following that we plan to gut the adjacent closet, add a sound proof window and add a workspace area in said closet. Here are some photos of the one and only drunken craftsmen in our first stages of Ryan's drum room/waste of space to vocal booth extravaganza transformation.

The Spoon The Catalyst and The Midwife

Very very interesting night last night. Hip Kitty in Claremont. My brothers the "Golden Boys Quartet." Sean P. Bella Rouge. Sister Rogers. Of course I was there to see Golden Boys and Sean (I wasn't aware of the other bands that were playing) but I ended up running into a lot of people I haven't seen in awhile. Music was amazing. Little biased towards Golden Boys since they're my brothers but nonetheless everyone was great. Had a string of insightful conversations with the father of two of the Golden's (my surrogate father as well). He spoke passionately about allowing creative forces to BE and flow through us. About aiming high and spreading the love of your creative and positive impulses to all. He spoke of himself as "the spoon" that exist to stir the pot of the various creative entities he has been blessed to know. I get excited whenever I notice someone noticing what I'm noticing. Things are changing and the collective awareness of the undefinable changes are unifying. I personally don't wish to contrive a change. Just want to BE in it. As a catalyst. A midwife.

We'll be here in December and the saga will begin!

Tee Dogs

Let me start this off by letting you know that Trader Joe's has $2.99 six packs. They may not be your favorite brand of piss water but seriously; $3 six packs are amazing. Anyhoo, golf kicks ass. Actually riding around in carts in lush green grass drinking beer kicks ass. Kevin from Golden Boys works at the Rancho Verde Golf Course in Rialto and was kind enough to let his degenerate friends put his job on the line for a couple of hours of golf hooliganism. Even Pablo from Grimey Dynasty showed face to play a few holes. Thanks again Kev. Here are some photos of Steven and I out on the course doing our retiree impressions. Check out Steven's killer hat.

After the beer is gone

Hey fazzies. It looks like the GAZA album "Dada Flannél" will be out around late October. We may need to throw a album release/Halloween party. Hmmm. Oh and Translu is taking a break from playing shows to concentrate on recording and drinking and smoking dope. I also met up with Markus from Cromwell today to discuss the Party War website and how we can make most bitchinest website ever. Should be amazing. If you're so inclined, please check out dawnoftheweb.net and you can check out some of Markus's work. Very good stuff. Also, you can download some Son Of Cecil and GAZA tracks at sickoftheradio.com/beta. This is another cool site showcasing a lot of not so well known but incredibly talented artist. Okay, I got some recording to do. Adios.

Gauze-Uh

This Gaza album is taking me much longer than expected but it should come out a lot better than what we were planning to drop month's ago. Let's give it a month to release huh? Sound good? Ok.

Don't forget, The Son Of Cecil EP "A Princess In A World Of Dragons" is available. There's that link right over there to the right------> or go to partywarrecords.com and it's in the KITCHEN.

Love yall.
