Eddie and the Hot Rods @ The Hi Dive Denver, CO (USA) - 2014-10-16


People forget that a lot of the first "punk rock" albums were all on major labels.  Eddie and the Hot Rods were on Island Records.  Future home of U2 and many others.  While a real undercurrent of new and fresh music was happening some of it was just rock and roll repackaged.  This isn't a dig on EATHR.  They were/are a great rock n roll band.  I think the punk label scared people away.  These guys should have been way bigger.

They are another band that barely ever gets over to the USA so when I heard they were going to tour over here I knew I need to check it out.

I think this recording turned out really nice.  The Hi Dive is quickly becoming my favorite sounding room in Denver.  Enjoy.

Throw Rag @ The Clubhouse, Tempe AZ, 2004-02-05








Throw Rag just killed in in the early 00s.  I loved seeing them come to town and would always go check them out.  Sometimes to just see them open other bands and then split.  I even drove down to Tempe AZ one time to see them play with one of my other favorite bands Drag The River.

I'm not sure why I had never transferred this awesome sounding soundboard recording before.  First time sharing this anywhere.  Only took a decade.

Jacko's crowd participation wash board schtick goes on for a really long time at this show.  I split it out to it's own separate track.

Enjoy!

Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats @ The Marquis, Denver CO 2014-10-03




Big time buzz on this band at the moment.  I've been hearing the hype in metal media and my metal friend circles for quite some time now.  They have played a few one off shows in the states but this short 15 date tour is really their first time touring the USA.  They have been selling out all the shows too it seems.

Next time I predict they will be playing much bigger venues.  One big indicator of that for me was the number of women in the crowd.  It wasn't the typical sausage fest that most metal shows are. Also their sound is more akin to say Queens Of The Stone Age then Electric Wizard. Creepier lyrics then QOTSA though.

I had heard both of the albums they have released at this point and while I liked therm I wasn't blown away.
Seeing them live really though really clinched it.  These guys really deliver the goods.  Check them out if you ever get chance.

Super happy with how the recording turned out.
Hope you enjoy it.
