Sir Charles Baboon and Gibson Baboon -
both fight over what instruments they play
before rehearsals and performances.
Hence there is drums, guitar, a keyboard
and someone screaming. Who plays what
all depends upon who was the dirtier fighter.
Influences
The Birthday Party and websites about Russian brides.
Sounds Like
What a bloody two-man band should sound like; (maybe) ................................ cat spew, little boys trying to act tough, farts and your ex-girlfriend on the piss.
Big gypsy tunes will echo around the centre of Melbourne on Friday 7
August when The Woohoo Revue head up a massive line up of bands and
DJs at the Forum Theatre as part of the Melbourne International Film
Festival’s Balkan Beatbox Night.
In addition to The Woohoo Revue, the show will also feature such
amazing acts as Vardos, BabaGanoush, 13 piece brass band Opa! as well
as DJ Gabriele Urban Gypsy (PBS Trans Europa Express).
The combined talents of these performers will make this a rampaging
Balkan carnival of oom-pah, gypsy swing and huge brass band sounds.
This film clip was made by Glass Kingdom Films! Please visit www.belladonnathemovie.com to see their feature film to be released later this year with Lamplight appearing in the film and on the sound track!
Hello Faithful followers!! Sorry for the disappearing act. Maggie cracked her head open during a basement show, so we’ve been out(no pun intended) for awhile. She is almost better so when that happens we’ll be back in the recording studio. In the meantime, we did manage to convince our buddies at myspace.com/onryeproductions to let us do the video game SFX that are on their newest episode.
