Greetings, one and all. Here's hoping everyone is well and safe.
The band DUH reunited after a 14-year hiatus to perform at the Comet Club in Cincinnati last May 26th. This reunion was a long time coming, and definitely the most fun I've had in a long time. Next up for DUH is a possible recording session either later this year or early next, depending on when I can get to Cincinnati to do it.
GO TO HELL and the Wankers opened for DUH that same evening, giving the show a decidedly alternative spin. Both bands were awesome, and I look forward to my continued involvement with them. As soon as I get more dates for those groups, I'll be sure to pass them along.
Keep an eye on Uncle Dave Lewis' discography as it slated to expand soon. Uncle Dave Lewis has finally got his scanner working and is working on compiling track listings for the various entires. Uncle Dave Lewis would like to thank all of the folks who have written and asked about the recordings listed on his page.
The Shake-It Records re-release of the earliest Hospital Records vinyl issues has indeed occurred, and I can say personally that it is worth the price tag. Bands on the compilation include 11,000 Switches, BPA, Qi-zz, Lopez Sophisticates, and others. I got my copy while I was in town, and I'm busy wearing it out as we speak. Pick up your copy at Shake It Records in Northside, Cincinnati.
The Wolverton Brothers new release, "A Better Place" (Hospital Records HDo-24) is now available. Check out http://members.aol.com/wolvertons/home/ for more information.
Uncle Dave Lewis has a few shows lined up with his band The Lookout Boys. They will be playing on Saturday the 23rd of June at the Gypsy Hut, corner of Spring Grove and Dane, in Northside, Cincinnati. They will be opening for Lovely Crash. They also have a gig set for Brooklyn, NY on September 1st. I will post more details on the Brooklyn Show as they become available.
Uncle Dave also just got a listing at classical composers.org in Holland. http://www.classical-composers.org/cgi-bin/ccd.cgi?comp=lewis_david It contains a shortened work list, bio and some other nice features. Now Uncle Dave is finally recognized by somebody other than himself as a "classical composer" !
After much trepidation, it appears that some material from TRAILER 8 will be appearing on this site. I worked with these guys back in the mid 90's, and they could certainly light up the beach clubs. My understanding is that they are still at it, though I haven't heard from any of them in years. Nevertheless, this is material recorded in February of 97. It will be available shortly.
I will also be posting some material from my association with THE FEDS. This group existed for only four months. During that time, we tore up clubs all over the Manhattan and Redondo Beach areas, as well as some outdoor appearances. This band was truly powerful, and created an energy that was unmatched in my experience. Because of copyright restrictions, I am only able to vpost my songs and some cover tunes that we polished, but it is nevertheless an experience worth having. When these selections are available, I will have them for you.
Again, Greetings to all, and be safe.
Chris Lewis
