I sing in the Cannibals, I love tRaSh music and I am tired of answering these type of questions. Those who know me know me and those who don't will know me sooner or later.
Hey Mr Spenser
My first chance to say thanks!
Use to go and see you and The Cannibals back in 1982 and onwards remember downstairs at the Clarendon, dingwalls and too many shitty little pubs, fantastic stuff.
My first Cannibals disc was 'Good Guys' in a brown paper bag cover, perfect.
Cheers
Stay Sick

Yep! Still playing, doing one more Cannibal's gig and getting married on the same nite, Oct. 3rd, at the Dirty Water Club, North London. I've had enough! We've all been scumbags for too long and it's time to take a big break. New Orleans is a cool place. Been there 3 times now. Catch some Moldy Oldies at www.myspace.com/thecannibalslondon . Thanks for the nice remarks. Won't get you anywhere with me but thanks anyway! Plan to give away some Cannibal's relics that night and have some of the other 100 or so Cannibal's from the past
32 years join after a full set of us now so there could be some great fun and good vibes going on that night. Shame Ryanair don't do cheap flights from New Orleans to London!
Hey Mike, you still playing in the band? Whats your site, would love to hear your music... I made it through two more Hurricanes... whew, it was a ride though... and by the way, it's the 9th ward, not the 9th Quarter... Just letting you know. Ever plan on visiting new orleans again?
i'll be there , (bout time i got out of Kent lol ) Bound to be Coolist Wedding on Earth .. thanks for letting us know : )

When you are over make sure to contact me for sure as I am definitely interested in having some foreign releases on a cool label. There are over 200 released songs to chose from not to mention masses of the extra unreleased stuff... The Cannibals have been VERY prolific over 33 years. There are outakes, classic video footage from as early as 1980 and an unbelievable amount of material to chose from. The Cannibals are as close to a true authentic garage band, in sound and equipment, and approach as you'll ever want to know. Myself having been a roadie for the New York Dolls and having sung in original late 60's garage bands when we were just your local "bar" band adds to the authenticity. Over to you now...
I'll meet PJ when I'm in London the 19th... and I'll most def try to get over there on the 3rd. Would be great to see, Cannibals AND the ceremony, haha. Congrats to the marriage in advance! I just got married a month ago, to a german girl.
And a retrospective on Cannibals, maybe? Old out of print & brand new material. We can discuss it further.
Yeah, cool! Got some Cannibals laying around here. You got any new material recorded?
Man, i'm so looking forward to see Jet Bronx friday the 19th in London. Here in Sweden it's a little slow with good shows. Any plans for you & Scandinavia?
