Gig Fri Jan 16 at High Fidelity

This one is going to be a ridiculous blowout - it's our last High Fidelity gig. (not our last gig, mind you, we'll still rock). High Fidelity is changing formats and we want to make the last show there completely kickass, they've been really good to all of us.

Rochester Metromix menshunned us

listed us as the Creative Cover Band of the Year

Just when we think that Monroe County couldnt be in any more in aw of us, we get such an honor beastode on us.

erik made the d&c

wow!

he's building a snow castle

Saturday rocked

Thanks for braving the elemints and rocking.

Mulletude has a fan in the ovum office

T shirts now available. 15 bucks. That's less than you spent on a lap dance at the barrel. Email us at mulletuderocks@gmail.com if you want one or just bring lots of extra money to the show. Makes a great gift.

Halloween post game

What a night. Fine looking hotties, much rocking. We had a blast.

We'll be uploading killer video from the show in the next couple weeks. Jump, Lick It Up, The Trooper came out great along with many others.

This week in Mulletude

Jeff: Is there any plans for a Mulletude practice this week? I’m traveling next week (the week of the show) and don’t get back till Friday 10/31 morning. I’d like to run over The Trooper if possible.

Erik:I'd like to run over Pat if possible

mark your calendars Sat Dec 20

We wanted to do another show between Helloween and Mullet Gras so Joe at High Fidelity hooked us up with a Saturday slot before Christmas on the 20th. More details to come

FallCrawl recap

We had a grate time last knight. Rochester rocks. Cancer sucks. Thanks to everyone who stuck it out after a long hot day.

Me circa 1988

Jon circa 1990

Couple vids from this yeer's Park Av Fest

Here's a couple vids to get you in the mood for tomorrow

Panama



Round and Round
Check out Joe Bleaux's drum work. He's like a scary baton twirler especially at 2:08

Need to buy a ristband to get into A Pub Live at 8

listen up turdburglars, if you show up at 8 expecting to rock, your going to have to dough nate to the cause. as long as your gonna spend money to get in, you might as well start at high fidelity at 3. you've spent 10 bucks on worse things than this. remember that spin doctors CD you bought in high school? don't lie.

Go to rochesterfallcrawl.com and find out how get the wristbands early.

Rochester FallCrawl Sat Sep 20

We're playing at A Pub Live Sat Sep 20th at 8:00 as part of the Rochester FallCrawl. Pro seeds will benefit the American Cancer Society and breast cancer research. Nick will be in the clink until Halloween but have no fear, Sean is going to rock you like a hurricain. Ristbands are $10 (going to charity), get started at 3 and by 8, we'll be sounding great

http://rochesterfallcrawl.com/

Erik, you're fired

We've found your replacement

Deep thoughts

Where it all began

Park Ave Fest is the best. To think that just two years ago, we were a bunch of uneducated unemployed long haired freaks happy to play 12 songs for free beer. Look at how far we've come. Now were a bunch of uneducated unemployed long haired freaks happy to play upwards of 30 songs for free beer.

Joe Bleaux rocks our nuts off but we need to Nate St. Ides back for a guest appearance sometime. Mulletude, the Genesee Brewery, EMTs, Mr. V, and Foxy's miss you terribly

Park Ave Fest, Saturday 8/2

We'll be rocking Prepp's yet again this year. We'll go on at 3, Hooligan's Island and Papercut Ninjas will open starting at noon. The sooner you get there, the better we'll sound because you will be a cross eyed mess.

For those of you unfamiliar with park ave fest, i'll give another sin op sis. Who am I kidding, you all no about it, but i'm going to summer eyes it anyway.

Park Ave Fest is a glorious weekend where thousands of people get so drunk that they make sure to fall asleep face down so as not to choke on their own puke and wake up with mystery injuries. All this is under some phony pre tense of celebrating a crappy crafts festival where smelly developmentally challenged hippie morons try to sell you pomegranite hemp mustard and camp good days and special times boondogles. No one who enjoys park ave fest buys anything except for fried food. If you like the crafts, you will not like us.

what was up with festival guy getting kicked out?

Let the record show that mulletude had nothing to do with festival guy being escorted out by some ogre. While we prefer our topless fans to not look like Dumbledore, dancing is always welcome

feel Nick's ubiquity

If you don't know what that means, Nick is everywhere. And by "If", i mean, "Of course".

Rochester Insider Snapshots

Clip from the 11:00 news after the gig

We ended up on the 11:00 news right after we wrapped up Talk Dirty to Me on Friday. Here's the clip, we were on early and then over the closing credits. Some nice looking broads in attendance, oh yeah.

Kickstart My Heart



Runaway

East End Fest ruled

Wholey crap. What a great knight. Thanks to everyone who came out to support us and thanks to all the people who've been in prison or something who were just finding out how kickass we are for the first time.

Rochesterunderground.com has a ton of pictures from the night and video too - here are some links a few of them

The first whistle player we had to fire, Chris Flava

Great picture of a bunch of mulletude maniacs. Is that Bobby Lataco of Moustache Ride in the back?

East End Fest Tonight

8:30 to 11 on East Ave Stage in front of High Fidelity - get there early and drink with us. Don't pretend like you have anything better to do.

more email snippets

Mulletude making plans for the weekend:

Jon: You guys want to go to the taste of Rochester on Saturday? Lou Gramm is playing at 8:30. It’s free.
Joe: I'm out. Isaac HVAC party.
Jon: Wow. That sounds "urgent".
Pat: Please let everyone know that my isaac air conditioner works great, my apartment is cold as ice.
Erik: Too bad Joe isnt willing to sacrifice his love's party for the show......Though I hear she can get pretty hotblooded when she doesnt get her way. Whatever -- chicks and their headgames
Joe: I wish Erik practiced the songs before a show so it didn't "Feel Like The First Time"

July 11th East End Fest details

We'll be rocking East Ave in front of High Fidelity, Friday July 11th from 9 to 11. It's going to be sick. If it rains, we're going to set ourselves on fire. We'll be adding some new songs and we'll be featuring a killer guest guitarist, Geoff Dahmer, on a couple tunes.

i cant beleive how sweet we look.

kickass time last night

Thanks to everyone who came out and thanks again to high fidelity for putting on a great party - we had a killer time.

Mark down July 11 on your calendar - we'll be playing out front at the next east end fest from 9-11.

What goes through most East End Fest revelers' minds

4 days til rock

First East End Fest of the year this friday. The festivitees outside end at 11 at which point we will turn it up to elevin.

For those of you unfamiliar with the east end fest, it's quite an event. Tens of thousands of sweaty drunks converge on tens of functioning portojohns.

The Isotopes are playing on Swan St Stage at 6:00, they're great. and I'm not just saying that as their best and only guest occasional keyboardist

We won't have an opening band this time but you still might want to get there early. We're right in the wheel house of many of the portojohn deuce dropping outskirts newbies that only make it to the big citay here and there.

video request

if anyone has any footage of mike dickinson's wicked stage dive, please email it to us

Thanks for a great knight everyone

We had a killer time last night, hope you all did as well. I'm not sure how well our manager mike dickinson (see link to the right) is feeling this morning after his glorious stage dive. spending a month in trakshun aint no big thing.

Get ready to do it all over again in a month, June 6

Thanks to everyone over at High Fidelity, you guys all rock

We have to pubicly fire Sting Ray Rodriguez again. We gave him another chance on the whistle and he turned into cindy brady looking at the red light on the quiz show. For shame, sting ray, for shame.

We've added another opening band

Going on before Papercut Ninjas will be a up and coming band out of Texas, The Oswalds!

HiFi tomorrow - be their!

On Dos De Mayo, we will celebrate all things Mexican, Metal and Mayonnaise. We will bequeef our metal offerings to our dark overlord masters as a humble sacrifice to the beast. Our gift to you will be triumphant solos, thunderous drums, glass shattering wails, glorious attire, and spastic histrionics. That, and herpes.

Prepare to be rocked abundantly.

Only a few days left

Inside peek at Mulletude's gig preparation

Below is a transcript of discussions for next week

Jon: Are we going to do Rebel Yell? Completely unsolicited, that was Jerremy’s birthday song request.
Erik: ok, IF we do that then we need a second guitarist - and keys are uber important.......but unlike the trooper, etc, it's easy
Jon: Can Sean do it?
Erik: I think so
Joe: I know so
Pat: Sweet. I’m a big advocate of as much sean as possible. I’m also a big advocate of as little of erik’s life as possible
Erik: things you advocate have a habit of not coming to fruition -- for example, let's take a look at some of the other things you have advocated, like losing your virginity, having friends, keeping some form of hairline, and not being a flower-sniffing toolbag
Pat: I’m torn between wanting you to die in an instant or in a long, drawn out, painful way. Instant death would spare us the misfortune of having to tolerate your idiocy for another second, but it would also take away the joy I would feel knowing that your demise was cruel and agonizing.
Jon: Maybe we can tie him to the spoiler of that little plastic toy rally car he drives and drag him over the 2 million or so pot holes on 490. The screams of pain will make up for the additional idiocy we have to endure as he squeezes a few final moments out of his woefully pathetic life.
Erik: I would love to see the 2 hapless boy wonders, who can barely mow a lawn, figure out how to secure ANYTHING to a car using rope....
Jon: Who said anything about rope, I was going to nail you feet to the spoiler and let your gigantic, mis-shaped head bounce off the road like a bocce ball.
Erik: that requires a hammer -- do you even know what a hammer looks like?
Pat: Guy redoes one kitchen with a half traffic light/half roman bathhouse motif and he thinks he’s bob vila. I hope your confusion over red green and yellow continue at an extremely busy intersection.
Erik: I dont think I am bob villa - I just think jon is a worthless dumbass

After all that, we've found that Rebel Yell is a worthy addition to the set

Playlist of all our heroes

Here's a bunch of videos of songs played by our heroes that we cover - consider this a homework assignment for those of you who might not know all our songs, it'll make
cinqo de mullet even more fun for you.

Although we'll be learning everything in spanish so maybe you don't want to bother...

cada rosa tiene su espina
el amor le da un mal nombre
vierta un poco de azúcar sobre mí

For those of you who rock and know every song and then some, hopefully this playlist makes it convenient for you to rock out while you work

Mulletude behind the scenes

People may realize how consumed the members of Mulletude are with rocking and knocking up chicks. People probably don't realize that we're also consumed with hatred for each other. Here are some greatest hits from emails back and forth.

Feel the love

What was Bret Michael's thinking?

Last night was the Rock of Love II finale. Yet again, he went with the self-respecting flat-chested one (Ambre) over the silicon enhanced train wreck with daddy issues (Daisy). What makes it worse is that Ambre is 37. What's the point of being in a band if you're going to fool around with broads your own age? Picking Ambre over Daisy was dumbre than picking Jess over Heathre. At least Jess was young.

Rumblings of a June show

We have shows on May 2 and July 11 (May show inside at High Fidelity, July show outside at the High Fidelity East End Fest Stage). There are whispers of a Friday, June 6th show inside at High Fidelity after the first East End Fest of the year wraps up. I was hoping it would be on Friday the 13th, but i was wrong

Dokken "Breaking the Chains" on Youtube

**this is an old post but the youtube video we posted had been pulled, but here it is again**

Last knight we practiced over at Von Carhart's trailer and Erik found a killer version of Breaking the Chains on Youtube. Check out the fan in the bottom right corner at the 50 second mark. He gets a ten for mulletude agression! That is how you rock people. I hope he comes to our shows this weekend.

Update

In addition to our Stinko de Mullet (don't go thinking that it's on May 5th, we do it 3 days earlier, can't get furloughs on mondays), we'll also be doing a series of June shows on the Fast Fairy. We've also lined up slots at the Horizontal Boogie Bar, Silver Stadium, Renaissance Square, and Centers. Details to come

Also, we're changing our set to consist solely of Stryper. To hell with the Devil! Jesus rules Satan drools

East End Fest, Friday July 11

Mark it down - we'll be headlining the main stage next to High Fidelity at the East End Fest on July 11. Not sure exactly when we go on, but the east end fests end at 11 so all you geeks who whine and cry that we play past your bedtime will be able to watch us for a change. This is big news for nerds!

Thanks for another great night

We had another great time playing at High Fidelity. Joe and the gang there treat us so great. What can you say about the crowd... In spite of the weather, you guys came out, rocked and drank like true rock stars.

Thanks for making it so much fun for us.

Gig Details

East End Mardi Mullet Gras
Friday February 1
High Fidelity
170 East Ave
map

Opening band: Hooligan's Island

Show starts around 9:30. Get there early, last time there were lines to get into the bar and lines to get backstage. Oh yeah. You know it.

A little snow never hurt nobody

If you're a Western New Yorker, you can't let a little bit of white stuff deter you from rocking. If you think there's powdery white accumulation outside, then you certainly don't want to end up backstage. OH YEA

It's Mullet Gras, your beads will keep you warm and provide tracktion for your tires if need be. Get ready to rock. You no it.

Stop uploading Guitar Hero videos to youtube. Please!

Ever since MTV stopped showing videos and started showing shows about how morbidly obese girls with bacne can get "made" into ballerinas, you tube is the way to watch videos by up and coming artists like Keel and Slaughter.

It's getting harder and harder to find the videos I want to watch because of all the dorks uploading their Guitar Hero videos.

When I want to watch Quiet Riot's awsome Metal Health (aka bang yer head), I want to see Kevin Dubrow (RIP), not some video tape of some dope playing a video game. I don't get this Guitar Hero crap. I tried hooking my Les Paul to my Intellivision and it didn't work.

I realize some of you might like pretending to be as cool as us by hitting green and blue buttons, and that's your purrogativ. But don't videotape and don't put it on the interweb. If playing it makes you a dork, then watching someone else play it would make you a level 20 dork.

For example

Freetime Ad

Big news, were feechured in a prominentlee displayed half inch by half inch ad in Freetime this week. We are so big time. You can't miss it if you read as slow as I do.

PDF link

3 Days to Go

All hale the gods of rock. In 3 days, the bowels of the earth will rumble from the metal havoc we reek. Prepare to bow down and prostate thyselfs before the thunderous metal fury raining down on theee. For on Febuary first, hundreds of illegitimite future head banger spawn will be conceived in spite of mulletude's complete lack of means and desire to offer any child care what so ever. All who attend will overdose on genny soaked metal mayhem. And crystal meth. Your lives will be empty and unfulfilled from February 2 until the date of our next show but the memory of rock glory will live on almost as long as your tinnitis.

Brilliant Youtube parity

Some Fin dude takes concert footage and overdubs his own dreadful guitar playing alont with other instruments. It sounds terrible but it sounds and looks like it's really coming out of the instruments played by famous musicians.

Here's Santana shredding



And here's Jake E. Lee with Ozzy. Ozzy's claps kill me.

Separated at Birth?

Mulletude fan Jeff M pointed out the following uncanney rezemblents

Joe Bleaux from Mulletude

Uncle Jesse from Jesse and the Rippers

Here's a clip of Uncle Jesse alternating between singing and pillow biting, song's called "Forever". As in, this song sucks so much it will haunt your nightmares for ever and as in rebecca romaine dumped him forever because she found him in bed with a guy. The 50 foot tall mutant babies at the 28 second mark scare me more than drug tests.

Rock of Love 2

The hottest one, Megan, apparently was on Beeauty and the geek and won it. Can you win two reality shows? I don't know.


Brett, if you don't pick her, Mulletude will.

There's also a hermaf..herrmaphruh...hermafroa...um there's a shemale on the show. She has a butchered accent, butchered implants, butchered collajen injunctions, and butchered junk. Don't do it Brett, she'll have you walking funny like somebody in an oz episode!



Bruce Dickinson said it best Brett. Run for the hills, run for your life!

Gig Flyer

Johnny Skoal stopped drinking long enough to whip up this flier on his Commodore 64. Id tell him not to quit his day job if he had a day job. Its pretty cool thou, would be better with naked chicks on it, but i still dig it.

Feb 1st details

Practices with Joe Bleaux are going really well aside from me feeling a little inadequate for not knowing the songs as well as he does even though I've played them a thowsand times. Feelings of inadekwasy are nothing new though, I can handle it.

On Feb 1, our opening band will be CNY's own Hooligan's Island. They rock.

Hooligan's Island site

They'll start at 9:30, don't miss em. We'll go on at 11 or so.

New drummer: Joe Bleaux

After Nate St. Ides left the band, we searched far and wide from Hilton to Herkimer for a replaisment and his name is Joe Bleaux. Had our first practice with him today and he rocked well. We'll be busting out new ones on Febuary 1st, fear not, the well is not yet dry.
