Your Ride Is Here

We’re gassing up the Econoline. We’re back. Did you miss us? We missed you. Now listen up, I might look like a used up piece of roots rock meat but don’t write this mouth breather off just yet. I’ve got an army behind me in the form of the Mission Ex. Nothing is wrong, everything’s right. We’ll be out there giving ourselves, all for you, night after night.

Hey, I’ve still got dreams to fulfill, you know? Okay, I’ll probably never own a guitar with my name written on the fretboard in mother of pearl, but after the right (or wrong!) gig, try and stop me from getting that tattoo of Winnie the Pooh on the side of my neck. It could happen.

We’ve had a few weeks off. We’re pale and rested. Personally, I’ve been making the most of it, taking long walks on Ocean Beach real early in the morning. I walk like Nixon did, with my hands behind my back, slow and pensive. . .

Yessir, here we go again. Won’t you be there with us when the deal goes down?

We’re dead heading out Rocky Mountain Way. And from there into parts unknown. Over and up to Cambridge, Mass with stops along the way.

Come say hi to Stephie at the merch table. We’ve got some new and fun stuff to see. New T shirts, for starters. CD’s and vinyl. A new batch of SHARPIES! Dig this new shirt design: http://tinyurl.com/7hl2eyw And other rarities, including a Spanish Bombs London Calling Live DVD! check it out by clicking on MERCH up above.

Onwards,

Tim Mooney RIP

Let me tell you: Tim ALWAYS did the heavy lifting.

Running Secret Studios at a loss all those years? It was simply one of the things Tim did.

I rented space there (he never charged enough, BTW). When we had to throw in the towel and call it quits, it was hard for all of us to let go. But it was really hard for Tim. Here’s a pic of Tim (and John Murry) taking down some speakers in my space. Shortly after this, the place was completely empty. The echo of our voices in the emptied live room was deafening. Tim slunk down to the floor and we sat there talking for a while about change and life and family and what it meant to keep the dream alive. My heart goes out to his wife, Jude, and their beautiful daughter, Dixie.

I remember when it began: when the studio was finally up and running. Jude dropped by in the middle of a busy session, took a look around, and like a proud parent said, “This is cool.”. I made a mental note to tell my wife, “Why can’t you be more like that?”.

I mean, I’m kidding. You get what I mean, right? She knew what the dream meant to Tim. Tim was always of service. I miss Tim. His gentle, warm, open hearted way will never be replaced. When Tim Mooney, a truly heroic and decent man left us, we lost more than the idea of a good person in a tragic world. We lost Tim Mooney. http://www.facebook.com/TimDMooney

Announcing a unique solo show in San Francisco.

Here’s the skinny: we have a unique hometown solo show to tell you about. A solo acoustic gig followed by the screening of Francis Ford Coppola’s filmed-in-San-Francisco modern noir classic: THE CONVERSATION at the VogueTheatre. They even let me pick the film.
