The Creeps were joined by the legendary TV Smith for a cover of the Adverts "Love Songs" yesterday at Holidays in the Sun festival in Morecambe England. We've been having a blast in Europe and especially on the Isle of Wight and we don't want to come home. A special THANK YOU to our ever AMAZING hosts, CAPO REGIME! Happy Birthday to Jonas Parmelee.
6/02/03 PLANS CHANGE BUT THE LEGEND LIVES ON: Despite what you have may have read from unreliable sources (like the 5/4/03 update on this page), the Midnight Creeps will NOT be touring the East Coast in July with The Threats do to unforseen personal family obligations. We will be doing selected dates in Providence & New York City but unfortunately not the entire tour as was previously reported. We wish the Threat the best and look forward to playing with them in July. Thanks to everyone who helped make the Cradle Robbing The Nation Tour a huge success! 18 Days till H.I.T.S.! Happy Birthday to Jeff Creep!
5/22/03 STOP HITTING ME YOU FOOL: Going going gone. I warned you in the last (count em) two updates that it would come to this. Now the day is here. As of today there are under 10 copies of Punchin Skanks Live At The Venu with 4 shows to go in the Cradle Robbing The Nation Tour. Unlike its spirtual forbearer, Frampton Comes Alive, there no plans for a re-pressing. At this time do NOT send anymore orders for this cd without prior confirmation of availability.
5/4/02 I LOVE YOU MORE THAN I HATE YOUR GUTS: We're tearing it up in CA and thought we'd take a break to report back to the peeps. The tour is going awesome and we're having a blast meeting all of you who have come out! Thanks to everybody who has helped out along the way! The Providence Phoenix was kind enough to recently nominate us for "Breakthrough Band" and "Best Punk/Hardcore Band." We lost last year in the" Breakthrough" category so don't hurt our fragile feelings, go here and vote : http://www.providencephoenix.com/bmp2k3/ In the current issue of Boston rock zine, The Noise, Doomed From The Get Go is reviewed (they hated it, all the better as far as we're concerned!) & Heather Mars reveals to Rita & Lolita her idea of a evening of guilty pleasure. Still very limited quanities of Ghosts From The Gutter & Punchin Skanks available. We have about 50 copies of Skanks left with us on tour and Ghosts is only available through mailorder. Right before leaving Jenny Hurricane recorded a cover of GG Allin's "Bite It You Scum" with a Boston Rock Supergroup of sorts, Sex Dealer (featuring members of Coke Dealer & Cracktorch among others). The track will be coming out this summer on a compilation & with The Hurricane singing lead.
