"Thanks for all the words of support. Ugly Things on the Radio (or on the Pod or whatever) will be back one of these days. I had a lot of fun doing the show, but since then got sidetracked finishing up a new Ugly Things among other things."

Played Victoria De Mare's new single on Kim's Flesh-o-Rama label on THE MAL THURSDAY SHOW #34. KF says it's big in Egypt right now. Last year, I did a whole episode with him when he was in Austin for SXSW, entitled "Kim Fowley's Trainwreck a Go Go."

Looking to start a rockabilly band on Long Island.

Hey all, I'm a drummer who is looking to start a rockabilly/rock n roll band with punk influences. Problem is, I've had a real hard time finding people with the same aspirations as I. I'm hoping since y'all are fans of rock n roll I should be a little better off. A big thing is I'm still looking to keep the swing in the music. Age doesn't matter as long as you can rock. Hope we can get something going folks!Peter.See More
