Hey man.... got the cd yesterday....my faves right off the bat are: 2, 5, 6, 10, 12, 13 & 17. The only ones I had already heard, were those involving the Templars. Very good sounding stuff, and I truly appreciate this new music. I'd love to know who these bands are, when you get a chance...... Also, gonna send you a mix....Have you heard anything off the Class Pride Worldwide comp? How about: Oi! It's A World League comp?
a fine summer night...drinkin beer and working in the studio with the family out of town. i realize that, left to my own devices, i would be doing the exact same shit i was doing 10 years ago. thank God for the trappings of maturity.

Hey man,
Think you could burn me some of that French/Belgian Oi!? Maybe I can cook some stuff for you, too. Doesn't all have to be stricktly Oi!, though. Cheers on the alone time!

Alright! Thanks for going out of your way to burn that for me. I'll message you the address... and get working on burning you something....
Saw the Templars last weekend and they rocked the house!

Have you listened to the Anti-Disco League comp., yet? Pretty good international stuff, compiled on Templecombe Rec.
I'm going to try and get down to CBGB to see the Templars in July....

I used to have Close Shave on vinyl. Pretty good mid tempo Oi! For me, nowadays, Oi! is best bought on compilations. Let's face it... it's a rare Oi! band that dosen't get redundant after 3 or 4 songs. But Emusic has some Oi! comps for download. Sign up, and the first 25 are free. You can then cancel if you want to. I got a couple Pist "N' Broke songs, on there, as well as some Spanish and Italian Oi! bands. I mostly just listen to Oi! while working out, or at work.......not conducived to family time!
sitting at work, about to go home...hungover. stayed out way too late to be going to work the next day...damn friends that are fun and free beers at the local bars! and for some reason i thought it was a good idea to put in 2 hours in the studio at 1 in the morning instead of going to bed...i'm an ass.

cornink:

I've got 5 days off in a row! it's like a vacation...and what's the first thing I do this morning? turn on the computer! ah conditioning...you can't escape it...busy as hell lately...holidays, trying to put together this show of tattoo art for the Beverly Art Center (opens Jan 14th for all you Chicagoans), followed that evening by the best punk/oi! show line-up the Southside has...
