I'm new here too

I found this forum while I was searching for info on my Friction Baby Talk CD. Yeah, I have an original too (from what I hear, I should throw it up on eBay!!! jk). I used to live in Erie, PA when Friction was popularly playing there back in the late 80's early 90's. I took some guitar lessons from one of the guys in the band as well. I picked it up at one of their shows. It was during the transition from cassettes to CD's. I was working with another Erie band at the time called X-it. We only had cassettes for sale. I was impressed when Friction had CD's, so I had to get one. I think I bought it at Rainbow Gardens when X-it and Friction played an all ages show there. Must not have listened to it often, because it looks brand new.

Anyway, I was turned into an indie-fan through my association with X-it. Met a lot of other bands while on the road, and picked up some of their stuff. There was another band called X-it from Connecticut, which was pretty good, Barfly from Jamestown, NY area, and Tokyo Rose from Jamestown was probably the best indie CD I have. My husband ran sound and lights for area bands so he always picked up band CD's from jobs. I never understood why bands like Tokyo Rose and X-it from Erie (whose last singer was Pat Monahan later to go onto Train) never made it, while some of the crappiest bands in the world get signed (Faster Pussycat - blech...). After X-it broke up, the boys in the band went their separate ways and all put out their own indie CD's with their new bands. Got all them too, but nothing beats X-it for me. Never put out an official CD, but I still have cassettes of them, some never even opened! God, I never get rid of ANYTHING! LOL.

Hope to pick up some new/old/rare titles and talk with those who are "in the know".

Welcome to the HH board.

 

I remember the band X-it, but I don't believe I ever saw them play live. I used to get up to the Erie, PA. area "back in the day".

 

Enjoy your stay...

>> am I missing something here? <<

 

If you've decided to hang out HERE then you're obviously missing a few things - brains, your dignity, any self respect you may have once had .. a shoe perhaps, a dress (which either Matt or Geoff may have stolen. I keep forgetting which one of them is the crossdresser).your underwear (look to "Dark Star" and "Fat Freddy" for that stuff, I believe they said they put those things up on that porn eBay type site ...).

Yeah, don't converse with Matt (Phat Ass) or Geoff (Geoff) unless you like feeling like a life time of showering won't ever completely wash you of whatever it is that makes you feel dirty. There is still a chance for you to pack up and go, but please don't. It sounds like you may a good addition. Welcome, and enjoy your stay.

Welcome Kate. I'll run the shower now for the obligatory inspection I make on all new members. Don't be concerned, I'm usually very gentle. Well, I was that one time, anyway. HAH.gif

 

Enjoy your stay. :)

Further details on that release will be forthcoming. Additionally, the band has announced upcoming tour dates with the legendary W.A.S.P. Nation (Official) in Europe. Dates are as follows: April 08 - Hamburg - April 09 - Copenhagen - * April 11 - Malmo - * April 13 - Tampere - * April 14 - Helsinki - * April 15 - Oulu - * April 16 - Umea - * April 18 - Sundsvall - * April 19 - Gavle - * April 20 - Eskilstuna - * April 21 - Karlstad - * * Supporting W.A.S.P. "I'm really happy to have reached a new deal with Frontiers Music, whom Crazy Lixx have worked with for nearly 15 years, releasing six studio albums and one live album to this day. Leading up to this new record deal we've talked a lot about the ever changing music business and the place for rock music (and naturally Crazy Lixx) in it and I now feel confident that we are all on the same page and have the motivation, drive and willingness to try new things in order to reach the next level in the years to come. Work has already started on the coming releases and I can't wait to tell our listeners about it," says Crazy Lixx vocalist Danny Rexon. "We've had a long working relationship with Danny Rexon and Crazy Lixx over the years and I consider them one of the truly great acts on the Frontiers' roster. Danny's passion and creativity and great production work, also with Chez Kane, and songwriting are an honor to have in our family! Danny's also got an insightful mind for the business and is a great and welcome collaborator for how we can continue to creatively promote Crazy Lixx in the ever-changing world of the music industry. Long live Crazy Lixx and long live ROCK," adds Serafino Perugino, President and Head of A&R, Frontiers Records. With millions of streams across digital platforms and millions upon millions of video views on YouTube, album after album, Swedish hard rockers Crazy Lixx have continuously carved in stone their reputation as true leaders of the Scandinavian led ‘80s hard rock revival. With views in the millions for popular videos like “Wild Child” and “Hunter of the Heart” on Youtube, outstanding streaming numbers for tracks like “Blame It On Love”, "Hell Raising Women”, and “XIII”, and "Wild Child" being featured in the Nicolas Cage horror movie “Willy’s Wonderland,” Crazy Lixx are steadily continuing on their march for world domination.
