The Consortium of Genius invade Nashville

One week from today, 5-22-12, Nashville becomes Nash-VILLAIN, as that group of mad science rockers the C.O.G. - aka The Consortium of Genius, invade music city. Dr. Gangrene will be on hand to host the event, and local rockers The Exotic Ones and Dirty Dee and the Sweaty Meat will rock the house too. Show starts at 8pm. Be there or die!!

100th post - Woo Hoo!!

This is the 100th post here on the Gangrene blog!

Way cool - I've been very sporadic with this thing, the first post being way back on 10-26-06. But the way I see it is it's here for me when I feel in the mood or have time to write about stuff.

With Halloween over things have slowed down a bit, so I feel a bit more energy for some side activities. Speaking of which...

There are pictures up from the Horror Hootenanny now at:

Some of the costumes at the Hootenanny

Ray and Wendy, regulars at the Hootenanny shows, as well as many other events around town, took these and posted them online. This was the first Horror Hootenanny this year, October 18th 2008 at The Basement - and featured The Exotic Ones, The Creeping Cruds, The Coffin Burys and Daikaiju.

Rockin' with the Creeping Cruds

Unfortunately Ray had to leave before Daikaiju or the Coffin Burys came on, but he took some terrific shots of the Cruds and the Exotic Ones. Thanks Ray, and thanks to everyone who came out!!

Rockin with the Exotic Ones

You know, sometimes you stumble across a picture of yourself that takes you by surprise. I found this on the internet tonight by accident - it's from one of our Horror Hootenanny shows in Nashville, and I'm onstage with The Exotic Ones singing The Monster Mash. And yes, that is a guitar coming out of my crotch! Yowza!
