Title: The StarFuckers Post by: DaBrookman on January 12, 2005, 02:11:16 AM Hey y'all! Wanted to give you a heads up about the StarFuckers at the Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach, CA this monday, Jan 17th. I was checkin' out Gilbys site and apparantly Dizzy is in the band as well! Anywayz, my band The Fleshgodz (www.myspace/thefleshgodz) is playing with them, so just wanted to help get the word out - its gonna be an awesome show!

First my band performed a 60 min set, and we threw in a few cool covers like "Red Hot" by Motley Crue, "Breakin the Law" by Judas Priest, "Surrender" by Cheap Trick, and we had our friend Amy perform "Call me" by Blondie as well as "Take it off" by The Donnas. The Starfuckers went on about an hour later, and performed cool tunes like "Honkey Tonk Woman" and "Sympathy For the Devil"' by the Stones, "Get Back" by the Beatles, and that one popular Georgia Satellites song. The true highlight for me was when Gilby invited me onstage to sing their final number, "Knockin' on heavens Door"! It was amazing to sing that song with Dizzy and Gilby on either side! I did the full-on axl routine, of course, including the whole sing-along thing, and everyone got into it! Dizzy sort of has the Axl look going with I guess they are called dreadlocks? I told him a story of when I met him years before, and he was so cool he actually remembered! When I hit the stage, he actually set, "I know Brook!" and repeated the storyI had told him earlier! It was so nice! Dizy and Gilby were just the nicest, coolest guys. SlimJim and Stefan were great too of course! They didn't catch my band's show unfortunately, but Gilby did catch our last song "Drinkin' My Troubles Away" which I guess made him comfortable to let me sing with them. Anwayz, sorry if it sounds like I'm bragging, it was truly a highlight for me!
