For a limited time, 3VOOR12 is streaming the entire album
<http://3voor12.vpro.nl/3voor12/luisterpaal/luisterpaalalbum.shtml?10617\

For those that are interested, Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus was
recommended by the Library Journal in it's May 15th issue.  If you have
a patron friendly library near you, put in your request.  The more that
request it the more likely the library will purchase it.  In my
opinion, what library's collection would be complete without it?  Just
some food for thought.

hello
have you checked out the 16 horsepower forum at
16horsepower.com?  Search for tabs, there are a bunch
on there

I've been meaning to at least give you the chords, but
haven't had the time.  Hopefully soon

Praying Arm Lane (from memory)
The chords are Eb Cm and Bb. The bridge is Eb and Dm
(i think)

That being said DEE rarely plays in standard tuning,
and when he does play in standard it sounds to my ears
that he is tuned a whole step lower.
(if you are tuned a whole step down try F Dm and C,
this way you can make the fills between the chords
sound right) The bridge is F and Em

Also try hutterite mile a whole step down.
Am Dm and G
or in standard tuning
Gm Cm and F

Cheers
Ryan

I don't know who you'd talk to.. but I'd love to hear
what you find out!
I know he uses the church modes, and is inspired by
the music that they were commonly used in (IE: middle
ages and the renaissance).
He is pretty unconventional, but it'd be interesting
what a scholar might pick out.
"Liquid phrasing" i like that!

Did you guys find any of the tabs?
I'm not very good at converting music to tab by ear. And since its
incredibly hard to find tabs for 16 hp out on the net ( apart from
neck on the new blade, blessed persistence and black bush).

Any tabs would be appreciated...

Yeah, really amazing! I don't know that DEE draw also. In the credits
the artwork is attributed to him.

bad tattoos are almost the best kind, in my opinion. maybe i just think
that way because i have a couple of them. that's what i get for having
them done on a stranger's living room couch.

I have considered getting the olden cover as a tattoo as well, I would LOVE to see pictures of them!

i almost got the 16HP logo last year, but it didn't happen. i'll get it
as soon as i can afford it now. i hope to have it done so it looks like
an actual cattle branding.
my best friend is planning on getting the skull accordion from the EP
booklet. even though i'm the one that SHOULD be getting that... haha.

If anyone has never seen a man who is blessed beyond words, this is
your opportunity.  I will be the old hippie in the tie-dye and A&M cap
escorting THE Ruthie Lingle to DEE's perfomance at Bender's Tavern
June 30.  They will probably chat a bit after the show, as usual.  If
you can't make it, God Bless You anyway.

he's one of the people who insists on doing everything himself rather
then going to a big label where he would get proper promotion, so it's
all a word of mouth thing.
i also highly reccomend the blackhands.
i don't know what sort of reading material you're into, so you might
absolutely HATE his books. i would suggest checking out "my fault"
before delving too much into his poetry because it will give you a
slight explanation for it. HAHA.

that I've never heard of this man?!

YIKES!!!!
What a healthy bunch of guys. I didn't know that bands had celery handy
while onstage.

The shows at small venues in the Milwaukee area are usually pretty
civilized, some requesting no smoking and or silence while the
artist performs and the audience seems to respect these requests.
(Shank Hall). However in the large venues this does not seem to be
the case (The Rave). At a performance last week by Les Claypool with
Rasputina as the first act the club owner had a metal band
performing in the bar area while Rasputina performed causing noise
carry over into the performance. I thought this was very crude on
the owners part and unacceptable. I remember reading a story about
how the Stranglers used to handle hecklers back in the 80's. After
being doused by a cup of beer from someone in the audience the band
invited the culprit on to the stage. After a man climbed onto the
stage the band overpowered him and proceeded to remove his pants
shoving a stalk of celery up his anus, he proceeded to stumble about
the stage in shock. The story went on to say that this poor soul was
not the perpetrator but a drunken fan who did not understand the
reason for the stage invite. I wonder if the publicity from this
incident mellowed out fans at future concerts by this band. I miss
the Stranglers.

Actually, I think I misunderstood. I was thinking of getting only
the 16hp-writing beneath the horseshoe (seen best on the shametown-
single (www.16horsepower.com/discoshametown.html). That should
probably be an easier task for a tattooist...The accordian with the
scull is also very cool, but I don`t think that is too easy to
make...

Wow, what an excellent album! "Mosiac" is yet another masterpiece from
DEE & friends. Favorite song at the moment is "Swedish Purse".
Hauntingly beautiful! Very much looking forward to seeing WH play here
in a cople of weeks...

Hello,

Does anyone have a 16HP (or related) tattoo? I really want one, but
don`t know what it should be....I`ve been thinking about the old 16hp-
logo (as seen on the cover of "Olden" and the EP), but would like some
more suggestions. Thanks! :-)

Aha, thanks. I was kinda rushing into it myself, so that was some

I am not sure how you haven't heard of him, but do yourself a favor and
get to know Thee Billy Childish.  You won't regret it.  I recommend the
Kitchen Tapes and his material with the Blackhands.

Not to speak for the said asses, but I generally assume that they are
there for another band on the bill that night or are just there for the
bar and the bands are just noise interfering with their riveting
conversation. Then again, I've been to plenty of shows when I abhor a band
or two on the bill and seem to restrain myself from boisterous talking or
heckling, go figure. I do like the tomato approach but DEE's tactic of
humiliating them works. too. Funny thing is, he's probably actually
sincere when he's making the refund offer!
