Show 124 – The Do For It Invasion

FullSizeRender 3

Kinda like the British Invasion, but just a lot more local. Yep, Do For It came in and took over the Temple. Jessie Frye, Andrew O’Hearn, David O’Hearn, and James Jennings joined the boys this week to talk about everything going on in the Do For It world, including their annual Halloween party coming up on the 30th and 31st. Every year the DFI roster of bands play dress up and cover, err, completely take over the essence of some of their favorite bands. This year the festivities take place at The Curtain Club in Dallas on the 30th and Caves Lounge in Arlington on the 31st. Bands being emulated include: PINK FLOYD (DARK SIDE OF THE MOON), AC/DC, JANE’S ADDICTION, DETHKLOK, TENACIOUS D, WHITE ZOMBIE, DEFTONES, and INCUBUS.

Also of importance is that our friend Jessie Frye has a great big show on the 29th at House of Blues to celebrate the release of her new album Boys Club! Joining her will be the badass Son of Stan and Buffalo Black. Go there and see this because we said so!

Also on this show were musings about Matt’s 40th Birthday, Lollaspalooza – Wreck Room Revival, NFLFU, and #fearboner, #murderboner, #petersteeleboner, #forceboner

Show 123 – Two Tonys and a Peter

12091230_10153635417671678_3458627950049324239_o

 

The boys were visited by some local greatness this week, Tony Diaz, Peter Thomas, and Tony Edwards. If you have ever done anything in the Fort Worth Music scene, there’s a good chance that Tony Diaz was a part of it some how. And one of the biggest shows of the year, Lolaspalooza VI – Wreck Room Wrevival has his name along with Panther City Exchange written all over it. One of the highlights of Lolaspalooza VI is a band playing Saturday night by the name of Slow Roosevelt, which happens to be fronted by Peter Thomas. If you know anything about Fort Worth music, then you know that Slow Roosevelt was a huge influential band that had some legendary shows that are still talked about to this day. Matt and Dustin get to pick Peters brain about the band, some of these shows, and just what the hell is going on in the world of Slow Roosevelt these days. We can almost promise that Saturday night will be another Slow Roosevelt show that people will be talking about for years. And then there is Tony Edwards, the right hand man at the now defunct One Ton Records. One Ton was THE go to label in North Texas that had an endless roster of amazing bands. This weekend Lola’s will be the place to be to see and hear some of the sounds that made the Fort Worth music, no, the North Texas music scene what it is today. Like Dustin said on the show, “If you’re not there then you’re stupid.”

Towards the end of the show the boys have a good conversation with Peter about mental health and it’s effects and tolls on the scene. 45 Fund is a Deep Ellum Association that promotes mental health awareness for Artists and Musicians.  Founded in 2011, 45 Fund was inspired by the suicides of Frankie Campagna and Adam Carter, both from the Dallas based band Spector 45. We ask that if you listen to anything at all out of this episode, please listen to the last 30 minutes.

IMG_1180

So we’ve acquired some new gadgets and gizmos and decided to test out a remote show with said gadgets and gizmos at Texas Billiards in sunny Watauga. It was a last minute (seriously a couple of hours before show time) decision and a good experiment on our part. If you have any comments or feedback about this show shoot us an email or call our voice mail line at 682-593-5586. We start things off ragging on Watauga and the number of methlabs that are located in city limits, Dustin talks about the Raven Charter Show on Friday night, Matt went to the state fair, sports chaos happened on Sunday, The boys contemplate their annual song, there’s NFLFU, and two new segments; Toby Keith fun facts and Is She A Freak or a Fish? The boys also go over the Dallas Observer’s Local Music Bucket List.

Show 121 – Sounding with the Intoxicated Gamer

depressing-nintendo

Thanks to some marketing genius today is International Podcasting Day! So we hope you are wearing green, eating lots of turkey and stuffing, set out some milk and cookies, and have plenty of eggs painted and ready to hide. Who comes up with this crap?

On a more important note the boys spent the evening with half of The Intoxicated Gamer, Steve and Belvedere, while the other half  stayed home and did their regularly scheduled show. They quickly launched into Arnold talk, followed by blood moons, photographers, Surfside, the Pope, Destiny, next gen consoles and a ton of other video game talk. Then they listen and discuss some of the kinkiest sex acts porn stars have tried before getting completely stumped by Sounding. Then to wrap things up they all try to tune their urethras…to drop D or full C. It’s exactly what you would get out of four guys with extreme ADD sitting around with microphones and drinking a lot of vodka and whiskey

Check out the Intoxicated Gamer here!

Drinks this Episode: Trey Mark Vodka and TX Whiskey.

Show 120 – A Reset With The Raven Charter

12002455_10153686701343395_3542939421473014918_o

The Raven Charter… We love when these guys come in because it is guaranteed to be a good time… They return to the Temple this week to talk about their new album Reset and their upcoming album release shows. Which did happen, then the wheels come flying off as Matt once again attacks companies that use “Christian” in their name. Dustin then talks about his trip to see Garth Brooks, and is asked a new set of questions from Matt in the all new segment NFLFU. Then the question arises should The Raven Charter play Alice In Chains or Alanis Morissette for the Do For It Halloween Parties? Dustin also discloses why no one will probably hear this episode because Sept 23, 2015 is the end of the world as we know it. And will the Pope make it through America? Also we talk about a paper Sosa wrote about the Fort Worth music scene that you can check out here. Plus we got some great voicemails this week, thanks!

There will be a special appendix to this episode later this week!

Go see The Raven Charter the Saturday, Sept 26 at The Curtain Club or Oct 2 at Lola’s as they celebrate the release of Reset. And get a copy of this album, it’s really, really good.

Check out more from them on their Facebook and their website.
