Sloth Fist

| Sloth Fist |
"Will blister the inside of your f’ing skull if you’re not too careful."- Up To Hear Music
Dallas, TX, Sloth Fist are a 5 piece punk / rock ‘n’ roll band that combine the melodic sense of Descendents and Teenage Bottlerocket with the fierceness of bands like Motorhead and Turbonegro. The result is an eclectic mix of songs that will satisfy anyone who likes their music hard and heavy, but still catchy with hooks galore.
With lyrics written mainly during the pandemic, the band's new EP 'Bombs Away' (out now on Mindpower Records) takes a much darker turn than past efforts.
The band has released the EP's latest single "BOMBS / Spit It Out," the latter of which is an unreleased B-side.
Of the track, the band says "Someone ever tell you a story, but they just can't get to the point? Spit it out already!"
Sloth Fist will be playing a show w/Riverboat Gamblers and Nervebreakers at Three Links in Dallas on Sunday, November 6th.

An Uncontrollable "URGE"

| URGE |
With Three Massive Night Spectaculars and the
Steamiest Beach Party on the Sands of South Beach
URGE Miami Festival returns this Thanksgiving weekend with three massive nighttime events and three sizzling daytime fetes including the Royal Palm Pool Party and the legendary Beach Party on the sands of South Beach. Produced by Luis Morera, Billy Kemp and Hilton Wolman, the LGBTQ+ festival weekend will take place November 25-28 and will feature a list of the world’s most famous circuit DJs including Alex Lo, Dan Slater, Edu Quintas, Enrico Meloni, Jerac, Joe Gauthreaux, Marvin Ayy, Mauro Mozart, Paulo Fragoso, Suri and Tom Stephan, with more to be announced.
“After the massive success of last year’s Thanksgiving festival, we are excited to do it all over again, bigger and better than ever before,” says Hilton Wolman.
URGE Miami Festival kicks off Friday, November 25 at 10pm when Barcelona’s Matinee Group makes its triumphant return to Miami with Matinee Pervert XXL. DJ’s Tom Stephan and Alex Lo will take over the decks at Miami's newest nightclub, M2 Nightclub, for their raunchiest production ever. The historic nightclub (formerly known as Paragon/Glam Slam/Level/Mansion and Icon) has been transformed with $10 million in upgrades to structure, sound and lighting. At 35,000 square feet, it will be the largest party ever thrown by URGE. Matinee Group is promising a level of production seldom seen before and they are flying in some of the hottest dancers from Spain and Europe to keep the dancefloor shaking into the wee morning hours.
At 2pm on Saturday is the Royal Palm South Beach pool party, presented by Eliad Cohen as part of the Papa World Tour. DJs Dan Slater and Paulo Fragoso will raise the temps with their high energy beats, making extensive use of the incredible facilities offered by Royal Palm. Expect plenty of wet and wild, splish and splashy fun and gorgeous men in skimpy bikinis.
The weekend’s Saturday night Main Event, URGE Warrior, will take place at one of Miami's premier film studios, home to some of the biggest blockbusters on HBO Max and Netflix, on their largest sound stage. DJs Suri and Mauro Mozart will battle it out with incredible beats in a spectacular production, sure to amaze.
It leads to the signature event of the weekend: the long-established Sunday Beach Party on the sands of South Beach. The sandblast begins at 2pm with DJ’s Enrico Meloni from Italy and Joe Gauthreaux from the USA dropping the beats on the largest stage and dancefloor and most colossal VIP deck this event has seen before. Kidd Madonny and his company, 3DX, are building the decor for the party and like last year, it will incorporate URGE Miami Festival’s yellow and white retro resort and cabana influenced theme.
“Circuit fans come from all over the world to experience one of America’s biggest LGBTQ beach parties,” Wolman explains. “We will not disappoint.”
This year’s host hotel is the Royal Palm South Beach. With 400 rooms, more than a quarter of which are suites, the Royal Palm is one of South Beach’s largest hotels, superbly located directly on the beach on Collins at the end of Ocean Drive. It offers a superior experience and will serve as the location of URGE Miami Festival’s Welcome Center and Saturday Pool Party. It is also a short walk to a majority of the parties. Special $249 room rates are available while supplies last.
A portion of the proceeds from URGE Miami Festival will once again benefit Miami Beach Pride, a not-for-profit organization that works to unite members of the LGBTQ community by celebrating the unique spirit and culture of its people.
Tickets for URGE Miami Festival are available now on the website. GA and VIP tickets are available, as is the popular 24-hour pass that includes the Sunday Beach Party, Sunday night event and Monday morning Afterhours event.

Hump Day & Chill
 |
| Just Call Them Angels l-r Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson & Jaclyn Smith |
I am having the post October let down withdrawals. "Yes" Minions I am missing Scary Season and Halloween something fierce at present.
Thus here is a much needed Hump Day & Chill pick me up. This photo of the original three Charlie's Angels aka The Golden Three as I like to call them, Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson & Jaclyn Smith is certainly helping me beat my post Scary Season blues.
Nothing was like the original Charlie's Angels series it was lightning in a bottle as they say. Not to mention no one will ever top the original trio of bad ass Queens.
So join me in moving on from the most wonderful time of the year and have a holly jolly Hump Day & Chill with Michael and his angels, won't you? Say "Yes" I know you will...
It's Halo Time!

W.O.W.
Shot at the Camden Palace in London during September of 1985 this rare footage captures Wendy and band during an epochal point in her career of which there is very little other footage around. Having been called the "Queen of Punk Rock" in the early stages of her career, by this time known as the "High Priestess of Metal", gotten a Grammy Nomination for the Gene Simmons (of KISS) produced "WOW" album and just released her speed metal album "Kommander of Kaos". In top form here, Wendy's scorching vocals are punctuated by her famous backbend screams. The show features Motorhead (Lemmy and Wurzel) joining Wendy onstage for "Jailbait", and also includes a performance of "You'll Succeed", a crowd favorite that never made it to an album of the Wendy's. The show, originally broadcast throughout Europe on Sky TV. was Directed by Plasmatics creator, Rod Swenson, and Produced by Phillip Goodhand-Taite.
