Hell's Bent On Rockin': A History of Psychobilly

There is a new book on the horizon due next month from Craig Brackenridge, author of "Let's Wreck". The book is titled Hell's Bent on Rockin', and while I haven't been able to dig up too much info on it, I know that it comes from Stormscreen Productions and is due in November. Here is one of the most recent postings from the Myspace blog of Stormscreen:

"The new book is scheduled for release in the first week of November. The full title is "HELL'S BENT ON ROCKIN': A HISTORY OF PSYCHOBILLY". The cover is on the Amazon site now (though it is not the final proof) and their page count may not be exact but is certainly a chunkier read than LET'S WRECK. I started reading through the complete manuscript on the bog but couldn't even finish the first two chapters before my legs went numb and I lost all feeling in my arse.. which I think signifies a fairly substantial read!"

Sounds interesting, "Let's Wreck" was a bit on the light side, so if there is a more definitive history coming up, I'm all for it. There will no doubt be some things left out, but I have high hopes.

Mad Dog Cole Euro Tour

MDC's tour starts next week, here are the dates from the horse's mouth:

Nekromantix National Headline Tour

Here are the dates for Nekromantix's latest national headlining tour. One interesting thing about this tour as opposed to the few prior is that all of their traveling support are also "billy" bands, they've got Detroit's Koffin Kats and Santa Cruz's Chop Tops. Both are top bands so this is going to be a show not to miss!
