Hillbilly Punk Heaven In Miami!
I’m in Miami. In South Beach specifically (long story) where the uncool come to pretend to be cool. Where tourist from NYC and middle America and all over the world flock to act like self absorbed a*&holes and pretend they are ballers. Where a cup of coffee cost $4 and even the local dry cleaner […]
Hungarian punk/pyschcobilly band Silvershine headed to the U.S.
In June/July I traveled to Budapest, Hungary and was blown away by some of the excellent psychobilly bands there. One of the bands I was most impressed with was Silvershine. Their live performance simply rocked. Missed the write up? See it HERE. I’m heading to France & Spain next in my continuing effort to bring […]
Need Your Help… Vote for Dorados as MTV’s Favorite Artist of the Week
We know why people do voting contest right? It’ drives mad traffic for their website. And we act like monkeys and respond by voting, and asking our friends to vote, etc., etc. Yet it’s not every day one of our artists gets a chance to be MTV’s favorite artist of the week, so I’m going […]
Behind the Scenes Dorados Music Video Shoot
MEDELLIN, COLOMBIA: I finally made it to my “2nd home” of Medellin, Colombia and despite the big “Feria de los Flores” (Festival of Flowers) festivities going on all week, I immediately got to work. First stop was lunch with my amigo and Dorados Rockabilly Trio founder and lead singer Felipe Ossa. Felipe and I discussed […]
“Bettie Page” Official Video Release by Dorados Rockabilly Trio
What do you get when you combine a rockabilly band in Medellin, Colombia (Dorados Rockabilly Trio), with a couple of Russian interns serving as Asst. Directors and a cool El Salvadorian/American pin up model in Los Angeles (Miss Nentini)? Just add a talented editor in Moscow (Evgeny Chernyshiov.. AKA “Noodles”) and you get one pretty kick […]
Yee-hawww! Deep Southern Fried Punk & Punkabilly! umm..ummm.. Good!
It was like Deliverance meets the Warped Tour and I loved it!
Paisa Punkabilly Kings… The Dorados!
I knew there had to be a rockabilly scene in Colombia. I just figured it would be in Bogota, not in Medellin where the Paisas (people from Medellin), rock out to the sounds of punk and metal to such legendary bands as I.R.A. and Los Suziox along with other really talented cats like Los Sornos, […]
Just Relased: Rudos Wild “No Toleramos” Official Video
Back in February I made a return trip to Montevideo, Uruguay to see my old pals from Rudos Wild. A lot had happened in the year I was away. I signed the guys to my fledgling digital record label “Punk Outlaw Records”, I had begun work on a new travel show “Raw Travel” and I […]
Returning to The Scene of the Crime
You may recall that about a year ago I was visiting Buenos Aires, Argentina winding up a 3 country trip (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay) when an unscrupulous and fake taxi driver took advantage when I let down my guard. My man took off with my cameras, passport, computer and most importantly, 3 weeks worth of footage […]
Social Distortion Performs “Prison Bound” @ Wantagh, NYC show
Yup, I’ve been to jail. Twice! So I guess I’m twice as hard core yo! However, since I cried like a baby the 1st time, I guess that cancels out at least half the hard coreness of it. Both times I was under the legal drinking age and both times arrested for, you guessed it, […]
Black Cat Psychobilly Show
EDITORS UPDATE: WE REGRET TO REPORT THAT BLACK CAT ENTERTAINMENT / PROMOTER RICH VREEDE REGULARLY STIFFS BANDS AND INVESTORS. WE DID NOT REALIZE THIS AT THE TIME WE COVERED THIS EVENT. AFTER THIS EVENT IN 2010, SEVERAL BANDS REPORTEDLY DID NOT GET PAID. SOME REPORTED THAT THEY EVENTUALLY GOT PAID ONLY AFTER DRIVING TO VREEDE”S […]
Punkabilly Heads South With Rudos Wild
You may have noticed by now that I’m very high on Uruguayan rockabilly band “Rudos Wild”. It’s not just their music that is infectious, it’s their personality, their love for their craft and their willingness to do whatever it takes to be able to perform. That is, in my opinion, the truest definition of artistry […]
Rudos Wild Music You Gotta Hear
When Uruguayan punkabilly kingpins “Rudos Wild” performed “No Toleramos” (We Don’t Tolerate) for me at rehearsal during my trip down there a few weeks ago, I was instantly hooked. If you like intense music, I think you’ll like this regardless of whether you understand Spanish or not. Check it out and let me know what […]
South American Punkabilly With Rudos Wild
MONTEVIDEO, URAGUAY – Final Night In South America My month long trip to South America was coming to a close. My laundry, too much, too dirty and me tan,but not TOO tan, very relaxed and maybe, just maybe, getting better at speaking Spanish. Clocking in at 30 days on the dot almost, this had been […]
Day 1 Montevideo – Meet the Uruguayan Mike Ness
When I took the boat to Colonia, Uruguay from Buenos Aires, it was a beautiful, sunny crisp day. Quite a contrast to that day two days earlier when it was raining buckets and my trip was delayed due to an ethically challenged and fake “taxi” driver. I was still kicking myself for allowing myself to […]
