A new message from Lee:
Hi Y’all

Our faithful video editor Babylon Slim emerged from his compound on the Chattahoochee River in the north Buckhead section of Atlanta, Georgia to present us with a freshly edited cut of “Machine Gun w/Intro” live from our Norderstedt show a few weeks ago… It’s our first video of the new and hopefully permanent 3 piece lineup and we hope y’all enjoy it as much as we did playing it…

cheers

Message from Lee & new video

A Message from Lee:
Hi Y’all,

Our trusted video editor Babylon Slim emerged from his Atlanta Georgia compound located on the banks of the Chattahoochee River just long enough to hand over the finished cut of “MachineGun” performed Live at the MusicStar Norderstedt Jan 30th 2016.

We will also be video taping and recording the upcoming Saturday April 23rd show at Marias Ballroom in Hamburg-Harburg where our new second guitarist Kai Fiefstück will be making his debut with the band… Kai has been running sound for us since we kidnapped him after he did the sound for our show in Bremen last year, we did’nt know until recently that we had also gotten a top guitar player in the deal! This is also the first live video featuring the new Manuel Beutke / Maja Kim rhythm section so please have a look and come see us on April 23rd at Maria’s Ballroom in Harburg!

Cheers

Lee
