Check it out

Looking through my CD collection last weekend I found two CDs from a band named Stone Bogart. Here’s their own bio:

“Stone Bogart was a sexy and talented band from Wisconsin then they moved to Arizona then they moved to Hollywood. We released some CD’s and played more shows than most bands will ever play over an 8 year period. Then some people quit. Now we are done existing as a band. But we live on here…as your friend! :::ALERT::: We are currently available for reunion shows. For the small price of $100,000 we will play a 13 minute set at your house for you…but none of your friends.”

Great band; great sense of humor.

I was looking into what they are doing now and found their bassist, Travis Randall, is busy with a new band. Check out Black Rattle. They are America’s premier heavy metal children’s band. This clip is from the end of Greg Behrendt’s stand-up DVD. Greg fronts the band, and Robbie Rist, who played Cousin Oliver on the Brady Bunch, is the drummer.

Stone Bogart’s lead singer, Sean Anders, wrote, directed and stars in Never Been Thawed. I wouldn’t do it justice if I described it as a movie about collectors of frozen dinners, who also happen to be a vulgar Christian rock band.

If you have time, check them out. If it’s not for you, I didn’t tell you to see it.

  1. Their version of “Itsy Bitsy Spider” is killer.

    And the movie’s whole frozen dinner collector bit was HILARIOUS.

  2. My goodness! Black Rattle certainly gives a whole new sound to kids nursery rhymes! I didn’t have time to navigate through Never Been Thawed’s website to find the bit on frozen dinners, but I’ll check it out later.

  4. Wow. This is so wonderfully random and fantastic. I’m going to have to wait a bit before introducing Black Rattle to The Bean… I’m thinking we’ll work them into her lullaby song list in a couple of years.

  5. “collectors of frozen dinners, who also happen to be a vulgar Christian rock band.”

    My interest is definitely piqued.

  6. Thanks for remembering us. Sean, our singer, went on to write and direct Sex Drive and also wrote Hot Tub Time Machine. We really were the greatest band ever :)
