So I was thrilled beyond belief when they agreed to reunite to celebrate the 13th Anniversary of my KNON 89.3 FM Radio Show BIG TEXAS BLUES on the most fitting of nights, All Hallows Eve!!! If you have been a listener to BTB for any number of years, you know I ALWAYS play some NECRO TONZ on the show closest to Halloween, and now is YOUR chance to see them, well, for the lack of a better phrase, live! Don't know if they'll ever allow themselves to be dug up again and thrust into the spotlight, so trust me. Absolutely impossible to describe in mere words, THE NECRO TONZ are a band you have to see for yourself. If you're thinking from the pictures they are all shtick, you are so WRONG! As well as being unbelievably entertaining, they are top-notch world-class musicians and Necrophillia, The Diva of the Dead is the coolest chicka you'll ever meet with an rightgeous set of pipes!
And to add to the incredibleness of the evening, the talented, versatile and absolutely undeniably awesome Holland K Smith will be making a one time appearance as Howlin' K Smith & the Royal Zombies performing a tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins!!!!
Trust me, my Cheeky Little Monkeys YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS SHOW!!!! So suit up in your best costume (or come as you are - that may be costume enough, and plenty scary to boot) on Wednesday, October 31st at La Grange in Deep Ellum and celebrate the Lucky 13th Anniversary of Big Texas Blues with me BLUE LISA, HOWLIN' K SMITH & THE ROYAL ZOMBIES and THE NECRO TONZ! More info and tickets at www.knon.org
And if you'd like an advance glimpse of The Necro Tonz, go to www.youtube.com and search "Necro Tonz" (Thanks Smilin' Jack the Ripper for that tip.)
It's spooky fun for grown ups. What else are you going to do on Halloween? If you go out trick or treating with the kiddies, you're liable to get arrested on suspicion of being some kind of pervert. (Which you may indeed be, but let's not go into psychoanalysis now, I haven't the time.)
And oh, how very, very sad you will be if you miss it! SO DON'T!
