Show 133 – The Holiday Spectacular

FullSizeRender-1

It’s the week of Christmas, but more importantly its the week after the boys went and saw The Force Awakens! This week they are joined by their good friend Jessie Ingle and his little woman Laura, Dustin’s brother Kyle (Ren), and Dustin’s white dad, Kurt. Yes Matt quickly brings the topic to the difference between Dustin’s white dad and black dad. The boys also spend some time on the goings on over the weekend, Matt’s insane idea for terminal kids, clean up the voice mail and email boxes, talk randomly about things that are going on to wrap up the year, and of corse promoting the Jerry Jonestown Massacre Presents Show featuring Huffer, Hoof, Mountain of Smoke, and The Me-Thinks on January 16th, 2016 at Caves in Arlington. Entry is only $5! That’s a steal! Finally, the entire room spends the second half of the show discussing the movie event of the year, The Force Awakens. So if you haven’t seen it, here’s your spoiler warning.

Show 132 – Depression, Suicide, & Musicians

IMG_1555

This one is pretty heavy, but it’s a show that we have been wanting to do for a little while now. A few weeks ago we had Dr. Peter Thomas, in with us to talk about his band and we ended up talking a little bit about depression and suicide amongst the music community. We told him that we wanted to get him back in, maybe around the holidays since this is a really emotional time of year, to continue the conversation and help make more people aware of the plague of depression and suicide. Well the good Dr joined us again this week and he informs about suicide stats across the country, the difference of bipolar and schizophrenia, what some of the risk factors for suicide are, some of the characteristics and signs to look for, some of the myths and misconceptions about suicide, what we should and shouldn’t do to those that we might know that are struggling with depression and suicide, and what puts musicians more at risk. Like we said, this isn’t the normal JJTM jackassery, its a really heavy episode and we hope this helps raise awareness or helps someone that might be struggling with these issues and leads them to the help they might need.

If you or someone you might know is dealing with depression or thoughts of suicide there are outlets you can turn to:

Appendix 131 – Bill Nye For President

bill-nye2

Welcome to the first JJTM Appendix, and it’s a doozy. They boys continue on with their discussions from Tuesday night with Mean Motor Scooter and things get violent. Dustin calls Sammy a d*ck f*ck, Sammy fights back, Matt becomes a Bill Nye apologist, Joe gets completely uncomfortable and Chase just pulls his beenie down over his face. This is why it isn’t wise to talk climate change and Donald Trump after ingesting a bunch of whiskey. So please enjoy this complete meltdown at our expense.

Show 131 – Mean Motor Scooter Rides Into The Temple

IMG_2256

The Southside’s rebels without a cause, Mean Motor Scooter, rode into the Temple of Eye and caused all sorts of hell in their wake. Smashing bottles against rival scooter gangs heads, kicking small woodland creatures in their sides, and leaving ruts in the neighbor’s lawn. You know, being real badasses. But since we all know that none of that is true, they did swing by for an out of control conversation with the boys. To be completely honest, this episode is either perfect for those with ADHD, or it might make their brain explode. We’ll have results on this test next week. They did talk about Dimebag and Lennon passing away, Scott Weiland leaving this world, Muse, Huffer album release show, Baroness at the Double Wide, and of course the new Mean Motor Scooter EP which is available on ItunesAmazon, Bandcamp, and of course swing by their Facebook Page. Get it because it’s a good listen and a good time.

Oh and there will be an Appendix to this episode later this week.

Show 130 – Huffer Enters The Temple

IMG_1993

Huffer is the Jack In The Box Tacos rock band from Fort Worth, or something like that. This week the boys sit down with Huffer and try to figure out where they exactly fit in the cheeseburger and chili dog rock that is spreading across Tarrant County. Just days away from their self-titled release, Huffer is the perfect rock band to blast at your family during the holidays, and if your family protests, then disown them. And if you’re smart, which according to recent survey’s 99% of the JJTM audience is of genius intelligence, you will do what ever it takes to order the new Huffer album from http://hufferrocks.storenvy.com/  . They will even play your house! Seriously. Go Look!

Huffer is releasing their new album this Saturday, 12.5.15, at Lola’s with Bomb Quixote, Duell, Southern Train Gypsy. This is a bill that will blow your balls off.

Buy the album here: http://hufferrocks.storenvy.com/
