Rock N Roll Manifesto 111

For some reason the chat and the stream on Real Punk Radio was dead as dead can be tonight. It was so dead, I thought about packing it in, until I remembered that most of my listeners download the show. Silly me. It’s an extra long show to boot! 2 and a half hours of kick ass music for your listening pleasure.

This episode started off with some Sonny Vincent greatness and then went right into a happy birthday to George Jones. After that it was all over the place, as you’ve come to expect from the Manifesto. Brand new Tranzmitors, a sneak peek at next week’s Rapid Pulse Records show, Brats in Leather Jackets, a Beer Minute and a whole lot more on this rock n roll extravaganza.

Rock N Roll Manifesto 110: Black

Tonight’s songs all revolved around the color of my soul: black! Yes, all the titles had something to do with my favorite color, black.

Anything that fit the theme was fair game, so there was a bit of this and a bit of that, including, but not limited to: punk rock, hard rock, R&B, psychobilly, rockabilly, country, hardcore, rock & roll and more.

Tonight’s Beer Minute was a unique Double IPA from Stone Brewing Company that I was glad to get my hands on. Thanks, Steve!

Also tonight was the return of Brats in Leather Jackets! Yes, Christian is back from Italy and this time he took us on a trip to Austria. Here’s some links he wanted me to post:

Rock N Roll Manifesto 109

I started the show 3o minutes early this week so you folks get some extra music in your weekly podcast. Bonus!

Had another installment of Diggin’ Through the Record Crate and a Beer Minute featuring one of my favorite beers of all time.

On top of that I served up some Aussie rock, punk, rockabilly, trash, garage, country, psychobilly and other stuff to corrupt the youth of America. See you next week, folks. Thanks for listening!

Rock N Roll Manifesto 108

Remember when I talked about infected beers a few weeks ago on the show? Well, I’m pretty sure I got one live on the air tonight. It wasn’t the worst Band-Aid flavor I ever experienced, so I couldn’t be sure at first, but it got dumped down the drain in the end.  Pisser! I was expecting it to be a good beer. After doing some research, I’m pretty positive this was a bad one.

Other than that it was pretty much a normal show. There was a birthday shout out to a good friend of mine, a Diggin’ Through the Record Crate segment, and lots of other great tunes, including, but not limited to: power pop, garage, psychobilly, post-punk and classic country.

Rock N Roll Manifesto 107

I took some requests earlier in the week which provided some good tracks for the show, including 2 sets of 70’s punk, a Wall of Voodoo cover, Geza X, Bill Haley and New Model Army! There was no Brats in Leather Jackets segment this week, unfortunately, but I did a Diggin’ Through the Record Crate segment that was pretty good, so hopefully that will fill the void. The Beer Minute this week was a Belgian Tripel India Pale Ale. I tacked on an extra song just for you podcast listeners. Hope you dig it.

Rock N Roll Manifesto 106

Manifesto 106 was back to the regular format. There were a few band submissions this time, and also 3 brand new tracks from the upcoming Stevie Tombstone record, “Greenwood.” You’re going to want to download the podcast just for that, folks! Of course, there was more, though. A Brats in Leather Jackets segment, a Beer Minute featuring an excellent weizen-bock, and lots of other great tunes. Hardcore, psychobilly, industrial, cow punk, trash, street punk and more! Download, rinse, repeat. Tell two friends! Then they’ll tell two friends, and they’ll tell two friends, and so on, and so on, and so on…

Rock N Roll Manifesto 105: Short Songs for Short Attention Spans

110 songs in just over 2 hours. No song longer than 1 minute, 15 seconds. Lots of hardcore and punk rock, but also some country, psychobilly and more! This was a fun experiment in broadcasting and a lot harder than I thought it would be. I couldn’t fit all the songs into my 2 hour live time slot, because I forgot to take into consideration that I would be talking about 3 times as many songs as I do normally. It all worked out, though, I just kept the recorder running until I played all the songs I had picked out. Somehow I thought it was 111, but the final count was actually 110. Add in a Brats in Leather Jackets segment and Two Beer Minutes featuring a Trappist Ale and a local Pale Ale, and you’ve got a jam packed show! I hope you dig it.

Rock N Roll Manifesto 104

Tonight on the Manifesto I took a trip to the Real Rock N Roll Hall of Fame from Mojo Workout, and played all of the artists that I have inducted into said Real Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. This should serve as proof positive that the “other” Rock N Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland is nothing more than a sham. A complete joke!

Also on this show, the first ever Beer Minute throwdown between 3 different witbiers, and of course, Brats in Leather Jackets and lots of other great music.

Rock N Roll Manifesto 103

Holy chocolate stout, Batman! This week’s Manifesto had a tribute to the Queen of Country Music, Kitty Wells, some British punk, Canadian punk, California punk, Colorado punk that sounds like Swedish punk, some metal, some rockabilly, some skate punk and much, much more! Add in a great Brats in Leather Jackets segment and an imperial chocolate stout for the Beer Minute, and you’ve got a killer episode of the Rock N Roll Manifesto!

Rock N Roll Manifesto 102

Lots of power pop this time around, a set of 50’s songs about ridiculous clothing, some doo wop, girl groups, punk rock, rockabilly, mod, R&B, garage, glam, street punk and so much more! A normal Manifesto episode, I suppose. My wife went away and took the camera with her, so I had to steal an image of tonight’s Beer Minute from Wikipedia. Such is life. Of course there was a Brats in Leather Jackets segment as well, with a German version of an iconic song you may recognize.
