"The Socks were born just three weeks ago, when the Rolling Stones split up. When that happened, singer and harmonica abuser Crazybones Jones, guitarist Emperor Strap and drummer BrickFist said "fuck it," spray-painted cute pink socks onto white T-shirts and wrote up a whole new batch of garage-burning tunes.
The Socks' debut was as thrilling as any Belle and Sebastian show, with Jones cutting a Monty Pythonesque figure in white pants rolled up to reveal pink-and-black-striped stockings. As the similarly attired Emperor Strap bashed out austrian-punk riffs on his hollow-body axes and BrickFist muscled the drums from under his Italian 'fro, Jones tore across the stage, singing his ass off and reducing the mic stand to scrap metal." - The Pitch, June 22, 2006

Thanks for the add! I like the new tunes BTW, and still need to check out the new lineup. This, of course, would entail me leaving my psychedelic sanctuary, but I'm sure a Pink Socks show would get me off my duff. Take care guys!
