| Battlehooch: They've made it this far, haven't they? |
No matter how you feel about "shapeshifting orchestral rock-and-roll" sextet Battlehooch and their adoring legions of nubile Battlehoochies, you have to admit that the rough-and-tumble rude mechanics know a thing or two about making a name in a city full of freak flag-waving free spirits. I'm aware that sentence made the band sound kind of like an experimental production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Not an accident.
In this segment, Tombo, saxophonist of Battlehooch and Maus Haus, offers some advice on maintaining good musical karma -- nothing too involved, just some encouraging wisdom. But there's more! You can also hear from Or, The Whale and Jhameel, learn how to book shows from Potrero to Polk Gulch, and brush up on your rock-lifestyle slang. (Apparently people still say "gig.") Gather your bandmates, get some advice, and you'll be getting your shows at Slim's shut down in no time.
