Brothers, sistas, and hairdressers!
The DKT-MC5 juggernaut is nearly upon us, thankfully sans Dando, and instead adding The BellRays' Lisa K and the old grave-digger hisself, Dave Vanian! Unfortunately, the absolutely pants Mooney Suzuki have now been added to several UK dates, as has bed-wettingly awful LA scenester Roxy Saint! Weeeel, you gotta take the ruff with the smoove, rite? Anyhoo, us Sonic Reducer boys are gearing up for Wednesday 25th at London Astoria, with the lovely guys at Sub Pop in Seattle even sending us a gratis Radio Birdman vinyl set so we can add some "Yeah, hup!" to the proceedings, by spinning the Oz 45 versh of "New Race", alongside other suitably righteous sounds ... The '5 folks are real excited about taking an exclusive tour of The Small Faces' East End haunts (The J60 Music Bar, Itchycoo Park et al) that's set to be given by KatManDude (whose pop grew up with Stevie M) on the afternoon of Friday 27th, and then Michael D's spinning discs ("Bring lots of Beach Boys") as our special guest DJ at Sonic Reducer that very evening! Phew! What with The Soundtrack Of Our Lives at London 93 Feet East on September 7th, and The Detroit Cobras at London ULU the following night, plus a UK solo tour by You Am I mainman Tim Rogers coming up, it's shaping up to be a great Autumn! As our I-94 brethren would say, see you at the bar!

yeppa, Switzerland will have Sweden's DOLLHOUSE supporting DKT-MC5. their 7" didn't move me at all, but live they were just plain great (they supportet Sonny Vincent in Zürich)!! so you better travel to some place where they open. just in case your choice will be zürich, you better go to see the next day the GHETTO WAYS playing in Lucerne.

The Ghetto Ways certainly get the thumbs up from this end as well. Check for their other Euro dates at Kiss 'n Run, and be sure to catch 'm if they play somewhere near you...
