Sounds Like
shit on a stick, resonating in an old silver bullet.
The video above was directed, shot & edited by Mr. Jason Kirchner. The goats are Baphomet's, at least while we're mending Mendes. Deez the dog makes a guest appearance, with no knowledge at all. The end credits should read Dudley Muldoon, not Mr. AK, who was merely appearing in his stead to make a video possible.
The video teaser below was directed, shot & edited by Mr. DR Shores, with additional footage from Mr. Jason Kirchner & additional editing assistance from Mr. Michael T. Shores, II. It's serving as a 'teaser' to make your privates tickle until the whole thing's tweaked nice n purty. Mr. Altman got on the upright, Michael's hitting the skin, & Mr. AK's all broken out in an attempt to redefine emo.
The painting that's our profile pic and the one that was on our invitations for the 8/8/8 show came courtesy of Cousin Becky. Her page is Orwell Was a Prophet down below, & she's got many more beautiful-magickal pieces on her site that you should check out.
The backdrops we use for live performances were done with Mr. Brian Barnard, whose page is down below, & you should certainly pay a visit. He also painted live for both 8/8/8 & 9/9/9. Buy something from him, so he can make more goodness!
Songs comprising To The Least Low that used to be here were recorded in a '72 Avion silver bullet, 01/07. Mr. Andrew Altman thumped the Kay bass. Dudley & family tried to play & sing. Songs of Snakes Alive..., which are on this & the 'tribute' page below were recorded by Dudley & Historic Yulee in the trailer, 06-08/08. Go read the blogs for updates on the discs & words, if that's your fancy.
This page is now officially an archive page. The Ghosts are done, & there will be no more, so far as we can see. We'll update soon with visuals & sound from the 9/9/9 show. Infinite thanks to those of you who made it out- we hope you enjoyed :) Much love to you all.
We've locked ourselves out of ye olde ghosts' page, and can't get anyone at myspace to respond in any way, so it's really an archive now. We were trying to get the tracks mentioned uploaded, and some have made it onto the Family page, but the remainder/totality of 888 {Snakes Alive@Pilgrimage Plantation} will soon be posted on our website, which'll hopefully be getting a makeover soon too. Visit www.theghostsofoldyulee.com to check it out. Soon to follow, video of the 999 show, and a long time after, the finished 999 {Snakes Swim North to New Hope}. Any contact should be sent to yuleehornetpt2atgmaildotcom.
come listen http://www.myspace.com/muldoonfamily 8-8-8 is finished as it'll ever be, Hope all the hype was worth it, mp3's uploaded by the end of the day, 10 songs here, 7 on the 'tribute' page. DVD's forthcoming if you've got a few bucks burning a hole in your pocket. <3
why do i always seem to miss the nights you actually come out and mingle? oh wait... cuz i work every fucking day to pay all those bills that leave me so broke that i can't go out even when i get a saturday off (once in a blue moon) oh its getting darker sir... darker indeed. so dark sometimes i can hardly see...

hi ~ I was simply going to say hi but then I had to put in that stupid code so I came back to say... Hi and I hope to see everyone and that you were in my thoughts and that is why I even stopped by to say hi... so hi...
Hey,how's it going man. I'd like to come down there and hang out and mess around with some music and check out your equipment. Sometime around February would be nice. I start school in a week, so I don't know how my schedule will be. How far is Yulee from Douglas anyway? We have to plan out a date and time. I don't have the internet right now, so I can only check online sporadically. It's good to hear from you. Keep in touch. My number is 912-592-6841.
