| 11/17/02 DOOMED FROM THE GET GO IS OUT NOW! Danger is where you find it and today it has finally come back to rocknroll. Doomed From The Get Go (Rodent Popsicle Records) has been unleashed on the unsuspecting masses. Your local music store will never be the same. Doomed From The Get Go goes through lifetimes in 31 minutes. The opening chorus of “The Ballad of GG” slams home the message of the Midnight Creeps that continues to steamroll through such songs as “All For One and Fuck ‘em All” and “It Ain’t Trash”. Infectious tunes like Menstrual Institution and the title track are guaranteed to reside in your head so long that they should be paying you rent. As much Iggy Pop as John Waters, the Midnight Creeps give the kick to the rocknroll that the stylists and handlers for the Strokes and The Vines didn’t have the guts to give. Doomed From the Get Go was made because it is the cd that the homogenized music industry most feared and at the same time desperately needs. See the merch page for ordering details. The Midnight Creeps are coming to the ruins of hometowns everywhere across America to dance on the dying embers and re-ignite the flame with like-minded terrorists Toxic Narcotic. The "We're All Doomed From The Get Go" leg of the tour kicks off this Friday November 22nd at Ark-A-Ik in Reno, Nevada. Better run while you can Reno, there will be no safety in numbers anymore. 11/14/02 HAPPY BIRTHDAY HURRICANE: Join the celebration de la Hurricane and buy the Creeps drinks when they come to your town for the rest of the tour.

The cd has been completely re-mastered with all new packaging that was stolen from the infamous "Feed Us" ep that was never released but still somehow got reviewed in the Boston zine, The Noise. Don't worry about me or the sound of the re-mastered cd though, all the skank screamin fun of the Midnight Creeps live is preserved and augmented. Think of it as a boob job for compact discs. The re-mastered cd is now available at selected record stores, midget rodeos, and of course Midnight Creeps shows.

Please park all Cadillacs as far away as humanely possible and refrain from bringing chainsaws, sledge-hammers, and machine guns inside as its time for the first PCP festival! That's right finally Providence celebrates the Plasmatics! The Plasmatics often regarded to this day as the most outrageous band of all time were infamous for their outlandish stage shows. Banned in London for threatening to "give a cultural enema to the British people" while dressed in a nurses costume, Wendy O Williams and the Plasmatics went on to break and redefine the boundaries of pop culture. Along the way they managed to introduce the Mohawk to popular culture before Mr. T, grab a Grammy nomination, and come up with one of the more unique uses for duck tape. Whether it was risking life and limb escaping from a Hudson River bound Cadillac seconds before detonation or the never ending string of obscenity charges that seemed to follow them, the Plasmatics never quit undermining the status quo while churning out some of the greatest punk rock along the way. WOW will be headlining the festivities doing an entire set of Plasmatics and Wendy O Williams covers. Hailing from Creespville USA, this will be WOW's first and last ever performance. Lead singer Jenny Hurricane notes "they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so we decided to imitate the most extreme band in history." No doubt WOW will be strutting their stuff in tight leather pants and be ready to bump and grind. Come on down to the Safari Lounge on the 27th and take a ride on the rock-n-roll quigi board with The Doosh Bags, Gout 32, and Jay Allen. 3/24/02 CREEPS NOMINATED FOR BEST OF WORCESTER You've got a right to vote, any old time for another month so rock the vote @ www.wormtown.org.
