According to the BBC.

PREVIOUSLY (worth clicking).

A couple months back we got hip to Fifty People One Question, a compelling video shot on the streets of New Orleans by the up-and-coming director Benjamin Reece. We liked it so much we asked him to direct a video for a song from the new Boondogs record. Dig it.

ALSO: a rough and tumble live recording of the Boondogs covering “O, Dana” by Big Star is being hosted over at Max Recordings. Go get it.

Oh yeah, you can also purchase that new Boondogs record over at iTunes and other fine retailers.

The Boondogs spent the weekend in the studio, and we completed basic tracks for 13 songs. Not bad for 2 days work. Planning on finishing these tracks quickly, but may have another batch of songs to cut before we pick what’s on the new record.

Things consumed in 2 days by the band:
Liquid
2 bottles of scotch
2 bottles of bourbon
1 bottle of whiskey
case? of beer
1 bottle of red wine
8 tall americanos
2 tall cappucinos
countless cups of French Roast (extra bold!) coffee
Solid
2 large bottles of olives
1 bag of chips
nuts
dried fruit
garlic toast
hummus
7 lbs of T-Bone steak from Doe’s
dozen fried shrimp (Doe’s)
1/2 dozen tamales (Doe’s)
several waffles (one with 2 pieces of cheese on it!)
various forms of hash browns (scattered, smothered, diced, chunked, etc)
2 pork chops
mmmm bacon
18 piece family meal from Popeye’s

See photos from the session here.

uh. so we tend to suffer from gear lust here at Sellout/Lucky Dog Audio. Particularly loving my Auditronics preamps this week.

Got something new for the “must buy” list. . . the Drum Buddy is “a 4 oscillator, light activated, mechanically rotating drum machine.”

Lightbulb+pizza sauce can+pvc pipes=DRUM BUDDY. What? Just watch and see:
