We went to the 9 Lives Saloon last night to check out “Artimus Pyledriver”. Look for a full review of the show on the review page. Not a lot been going on downtown here. We are still recovering from our Colorado trip with Nashville Pussy. We still have a lot of photos to post but haven’t gotten them all downloaded yet. Tomorrow night we are going to see DICK DELICIOUS at 9 Lives. Looking very forward to that one. Look for pictures and comments from the show tomorrow night or the next day knowing me.

THE BMF SHOW REVIEW!

Artimus Pyledriver UPDATED
Last night we went to 9 Lives Saloon to check out this band. I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I liked them. A lot. They rock very hard. The lead singer Dave reminded me of James Hetfield on speed when he was still cool. He had an intense stage presence that made me take notice. I couldn’t get that out of my head. The James Hetfield thing. They said it was their first show, but it was obvious these guys had been practicing. They also kind of reminded me of a country version of “Speedealer”. Which to me a good thing. Speedealer are cool as fuck but Artimus Pyledriver are cooler as far as I’m concerned. As I watched the band I couldn’t help but think of combines, and wheat fields and fifths of Jack Daniels. I would lay money down on odds that at least one of those guys can drive a combine and climb down and kick your ass for the fun of it. Their music as I said was hard as fuck, but it was cool as fuck too. They impressed me anyway. Still, you can tell that the more the band plays the better they will be so you can count on seeing me at the next show. To find out more about the band check out their bio on their website. Download a sample of one of their songs called “SWAMP DEVIL” here.(reposted from WHTRR Reviews)

8/16/20 I restored a few pictures found on the server at musicfilter.net and updated the page with BMF’s scattered posts about Artimus Pyledriver. I removed the referenced links in the review from 2002 since they were very dead. There are more original photos of this show, but I will have to find those on one of BMF’s computers some other day. 🙂 As BMF said in his 2002 review, we saw the band’s very first show at Atlanta’s infamous 9 Lives Saloon (closed for a long time). Looks like it would take another few years for them to put out their first and only album including the song “Swamp Devil” mentioned in the review. I think we saw them play another time on a ticket with Nashville Pussy. Check out Artimus Pyledriver on Facebook and take a look/listen to “Swamp Devil” @ youtube.(thank you baby – I found the #57 in that video) Southern hardcore goodness! ~mc~ #57bmf4ever

Rock ‘n’ Roll Box

The Toolbox Project

I made this toolbox about a year ago cause I wanted to make something. I got started by planning to paint the lid candy apple red cause I found a can of it at the old punk rock house the other day and wanted to paint something with it. So it started there and progressed into a obsessive but fun as hell project. I made two levels inside with a sliding shelf above the second level. I attached MusicFilter.com buttons, used a guitar sticker as a tempate over the lid, did a fuax graffiti finish on the underside of the lid and the side handles, put thick coats of poly on all panels, reinforced the box with countersunk wood screws, put putty over screw holes and sanded down, did a blend job with the red over the ends where the screws went, embedded a Unknown Hinson sticker on the front panel and then put more polyurethane on the exterior heavily. Now it is drying to put back together later today.

Update 5/15/09 / The finishes were put on so thick the box is not 100% dry even at 11 pm tonight. But it was dry enough for me to put most of the finishing touches on it. I embedded some guitar picks, put a hammered finish on the locking mechanism and the hinges. As I assembled it all back I was ready to take some photos. I took the first ones of the outside of the box and when I began to open the lid I knew right away I had forgotten to consider how the lid would stay open without swinging back and breaking off. First I just put some hooks back in the place I had them before only then to realized they would block the 2nd shelf taking it out and putting it back in. So I screwed a hook under the support brace for the 2nd shelf and tested it. It worked but I then gleaned a pocket watch hanging on the wall with a fairly long chain. The chain was about 1/4 of an inch too short so I began a hunt for a link of some sort and of course looked for what seemed like an hour with no luck. I finally came across a key ring which was perfect. But then the key ring caused interference with the second shelf. Fuck it for now. I’ll come up with a better idea later. The box is done and for all the damn time I spent on it I’m glad I like it. Not bad for scrap pine I found at Home Depot for $1 a board.

If I can get the video to post you can also see my other toolboxes. The pretty one on the left is one MC gave me. It is the caddy of the boxes. The one on the right is one I found on clearance at Home Depot that was once promo for some tool company. Lots of cool storage compartments and very portable. It is the traveler. And of course the one in the middle is the workhorse. The one where things get tossed or more likely thrown in.
