I was in my 30's when I finely read Franny and Zoey. I will read it another 10 times before I'm old.. If your an artist, it's a must read. If you a thinker, it's a must read..

It was a recommendation to me by the Author Joshua Mohr, who recently wrote and published.. Something's that meant the world to me.. and it was a fantastic recommendation.

Punk Rock is an idea NOT a drum beat

2009-10-05T15:59:00.000-07:00

So... All I hear these days is this SHIT music where they have stolen the drum beat from Black Flag, or the Mighty Mighty DK's and now they are punk.. But the lyrical content is this SHIT..

""Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween
on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends""

I'll leave who this is out, but they get called PUNK ROCK all the time.. FUCK THAT... FFUCCKK THAT... Punk is NOT a tempo or an damn drum beat... it's an ideal, and way of thinking.. it doesn't require a uniform, nor a fucking spike collar...

TELL ME what you think?

GET TO CAUGHT IN THE CAROUSEL NOWWWW!!!

2009-10-05T10:14:00.001-07:00

Damn Handsome and the Birthday Suits New Record --

2009-09-22T14:05:00.000-07:00

We're completing another 3 songs this month, which we will be posting on iTunes. Head on over there and give a listen..

2009-09-22T13:58:00.000-07:00

Who we Are:

2009-09-22T13:36:00.000-07:00

Damn Handsome and the Birthday Suits is an SF bay area 3 piece punk/cocktail rock type band. They have a little bit of a Green Day a little bit of the DK’s feel to them. The band features founding member and Singer songwriter Rob Barrett (The Reverend Rob) on lead guitar and vocals. Rob is a former member of 7 Karma Fishes who were very successful and signed to Meldac Records.
Damn Handsome and the Birthday Suits have played locally over the last year, with upcoming gigs over the next month. They just completed a performance at world renowned Slims, and The Rockit Room to name a few.

Damn Handsome & The Birthday Suits began/re-organized in the Spring of 2009 as this line up. Jack Dunham, Bassist, has many years recording and performing experience traveling the west coast with an assortment of bands and really is just the overall Handsome one, says Guitar/Singer Rob Barrett. Jon Roger, Drummer, and co-musician with Rob for 8 years now in several projects brings a completely new twist to this type of rock. Jon has a flair all to his own with his true background in R-n-B. Rob has a favorite parlor trick, that is COMPLETELY true, that he performs with Jon. ‘Lets ask our amazingly talented drummer friend to name ONE Led Zeppelin song???’ Nope, he ain’t gonna be able boys and girls. So that gives Jon a fresh view of the music they create. He is not merely drawing on years of Rock-n-Roll influence, but is just hearing the music for what it is. That is what The Reverend Rob calls our “Secret Weapon”
