New show and new album!
posted by Whoopysnorp on June 29th 2009, 05:42 PM

Two items of interest:

First of all, there is an UPCOMING GH SHOW at Reggie's Music Joint on July 11th. Showtime is 10 p.m. and cover is $5. As an EXTRA SPECIAL treat, our once-and-future drummer Carson Hooley will be joining us! Don't miss this...it's not liable to happen again for quite some time.

ALSO the new Genital Hercules album, Spring Break '86, is now available here: http://www.cdbaby.com/genital2

It's bargain-priced at $8. Who else gives you 25 tracks totaling over an hour of music for such little money? Nobody is who!

Genital Hercules is back, baby!!!

The first Genital Hercules show since early 2007 will be happening Friday, September 26th, at the Gallery Cabaret. That's at 2020 N Oakley in Chicago. No cover charge for this show!

It'll be a little different from the Genital Hercules anybody last saw, but I think it'll be good. We'll see...

Genital Hercules still exists!

Wow, it's been forever since I posted anything here. I didn't intend for it to be that long. I'm sure anybody who looks at this site would get the impression that Genital Hercules no longer exists, but that is only half true!

Let's see, where to begin...well, first of all, as posted back in 2007, Les left Chicago and the band. We'll never have another singer like him, I'm sure...however, our classically-trained friend Jason agreed to join in his stead! Jason is an imposing figure with the pipes to match, and so we figured we had it made. Soon we were proven wrong, however, when Eric, our bassist at the time, also decided to move away. All was not lost, though, because he was enterprising enough to find his own replacement, one Mr. David Bachowski, formerly of Buffalo, New York's Armcannon. He turned out to be perfect for the band and a fine bassist. So again, we figured we had it made...when just a short time later, the one and only Carson McDonald's decided he no longer had time to drum for us due to school.

And that, everybody, pretty much brings us to where we are today. We have worked briefly with a couple of drummers, but nothing has worked out so far. If you are reading this, and you are a drummer, and you would like to drum for us, please email max at genitalhercules.com. This band has not breathed its last, I promise!

Speaking of which, our long-awaited second album Spring Break '86 is very nearly complete, and only needs to have the cover art finished to be considered 'done'. This album is a slight departure for Genital Hercules in some ways, but I think it came out great, and I can't wait to have it available to people who might want to buy it (come on, I know you're out there).
