"Sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whiskey and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested." ~Hunter S. Thompson (1937-2005)

"No matter how corrupt, greedy and heartless our government, our corporations, our media, and our religious and charitable institutions may become, the music will still be wonderful. If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph:

THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WAS MUSIC."


~Kurt Vonnegut (1922-2007)

TROUBLE IN RIVER CITY
Records, Booking/Promotions, Google Group, and Podcast


TIRC is about rock'n'roll. REAL rock'n'roll. It's about wearing your heart on your sleeve and speaking your own mind. It's about kickin' ass and having fun. It's about trashy, sleazy, noisy, raw low-budget outsider music and culture. It ain't about musicianship. It ain't about technical skill. It ain't about politics or snooty, cooler-than-thou hipster attitudes. We're just here to try and showcase some raunchy rock'n'roll. And we accomplish this task any number of different ways... with an email list (Google Group), a podcast, a record label, and local show promotion. Watch the calendar on this page for shows of interest, or subscribe to the TIRC list by entering your email address in the form below...

TIRC Records on Grunnen Rocks.

In the beginning... Trouble in River City (TIRC) started out as a Yahoo-based email list back in the late '90s (stealing the name from a local punk rock fanzine that existed in the early '90s), then kinda morphed into a record label in 2000 to release trashy garage, punk, surf, and primitive rock'n'roll from St. Louis and beyond. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), the label only saw two releases. The first (TIRC-001) was a compilation CD called Landlocked & Loaded!, which featured "Hi-Octane Underground Rock'n'Roll from the Great Midwest," including music from such star-studded bands as The Geargrinders, The Revelators, The Trip Daddys, The Cripplers, Thee Lordly Serpents, and a few others. The 2nd release was a 7" single by a local surf/instro band, The Honkeys ("Tossage" b/w "Tell 'Em Large Marge Sent Ya!"). Copies of both releases are still available, and are cheap. If you would like to own one of these releases, just click the PayPal "Buy it Now" buttons below:

Actually the band name comes from the royal title rather than the auto. Specifically from a Cab Calloway song "How Big Can You Get?"

'you can die to be a duke or a grand marquis but you see the latest movies just the same as he; you both listen to the radio and all for free.
I'm asking you bub how big can you be?'
