Trajedy Strikes Twice

Back in May, it was premachurly reported that Erik Von Carhart was killed in a boat exploshun. As luck might have it, when they recovered his body, Erik was just passed out from whip-its he had done moment prior to the devastashin. His long road back to recovery hit a bit of a snag last week while he was rehabbing on the canel trail near Pitsford. Theirs no easy way to say it. Erik was R'd by a B. In otherwords rapped by a bear. He was quoted in the D&Ce saying "it was humiliating the way he let his friend watch". Need less to say, our September gig at Bugaboo Creek is cancelled. An onlooker snapped this photo.

Audishuning New Guitarest

It is with great sorrow that I announce the passing or Mulletude guitarest Erik Von Carhart. Erik was killed last night in a spectacular boat exploshun in the retention pond outside of his trailer court (see picture). We'll be collecting his remains with a pool skimmer later today if anyone would like to join us. Calling hours will be held at the street meat cart outside of the Village Gate between 1:00 and 1:08 p.m. tomorrow. There will be no funeral ceremony since nobody replied to the facebook invite that was mysteriously sent out prior to his deth.

In other news: Mulletude is on the serch for a NEW GUITAREST! If you can shred with the likes of CC Deville, Carlos Cavazo, and Jake E. Lee then show up at Erik's calling hours. Bring food. You must have your own gear and drug connection/lab. Pleese leave your illigitamates at home. No nagging baby mamas either.

RIP Ronnie James Dio

Since Lars Ulrich weighed in on the passing of Dio, we thought it was appororiate that Mulletude did as well. Dio was the undisputed leader of real metal fans. That's truth that's hard as steel. I would guess that if you added up all the times the band and our fans have seen Dio, Sabbath, or Rainbow it would add up to hundreds. He was that influential and always a great performer. And what he lacked in height, he made up for in flawless vocal performances night after night. Better yet, he's from freakin' Cortland, NY.

Dio is our Jim Morrison, our Kurt Cobain, our John Lennon. Except way better and more talented. The last time I checked, John Lennon never wrote about neon knights, riding a tiger, or standing on a silver mountain.

So here's to you Dio - you were a rainbow in the dark.

Feel the love

Here is a glimpse into behind-the-scenes Mulletude planning.  Rock shows as awesome as our's require much thought.

Feel the love

Erik: listen, we HAVE to practice early wednesday -- even if you guys have to scoot out of work a little early. I have to work at 830PM - 7AM both tuesday and wednesday nights.
So I wuold say 6PM at the LATEST.
So pull some strings, but get there early.please

Pat: No problem here.
I don’t envy you. It really sucks to be you.
Which has nothing to do with your terrible work schedule, incidentally

******

Pat: I hope Erik has a hemorrhage and dies during a Poison song

Jon: Unlike the Poison song, I WILL Forget You, Erik.

Erik: Ah, look what the cat dragged in...my bandmates. I understand you guys are just looking for nothing but a good time when you talk dirty to me, But you have to realize that you are just showing me that every rose has its thorn -- which is no way to tear down the walls I have built up.

Instead of making me cry tough, why not instead give me something to believe in. I know you guys think it's bad to be good, but you can
still send me some good love from time to time.

Otherwise, *I* will play dirty. I will use your native tongue when i state this so I know you understand: I will blame it on you when I make it a matter of flesh and blood when i throw your worthless bodies off a ravine....ride the wind f8ckers!

With that, I invite you to open up and say ahh....PISS!

******

Joe: Are we still on for Practice tonight?
Pat: I’m in
Jeff: I’m available.
Jon: Yes.
Erik: F you - *I* give the final OK
and I say yes, only if someone is bringing diet cola and everyone punches Jon in the ribcage

******

Joe: Now, why is it when I ask( for the third time)
"So, now that we have a date established.
-Any new songs do you want to try and squeeze in?"
It falls on deaf ears.
BUT WHEN JON WRITES EVERYONE RESPONDS LIKE A CALL IN FOR FREE TICKETS.

Jon: Any new songs you guys want to work on for these gigs?

Pat: Good question, Jon. Wish someone had thought of asking that.

Erik: who cares - they will just be songs i will grow to hate

******

Jon: Pat has replicated our Mulletude DVD so we can sell them on Sunday at the Superbowl Party for Jerremy. I am putting together a quick, cheap black & white cover with the Mulletude logo on it (below). Right now, it’s titled “Live at the German House”. Can anyone come up with a better title?

Erik: Jon's Farewell Show

******

Pat: Teddy geiger’s picture on the front page is pretty funny. What a girl

Jeff: Kinda looks like Erik’s high school yearbook photo.

Erik: *sigh*
it kind of does......

******

Pat: Erik, your job today is to get something on craigs list and then drop dead. We’re counting on you

Erik: may not happen....or will have to wait until tonight -- I am testing all day
all WEEK actually. In fact I have 2 overnight shifts this week....so i am not going to be able to counted on for much of anything....

Joe: You're poop. I hate you.

******

Joe: We need to really review Slide it in or come to a consensus.
There are a lot of breaks we are missing and are adding in the song.
I just finished listening to it about 5 times and we are over complicating it.

Erik: you are overcomplicating our gig
*Erik likes this*

Joe: You over complicate a lawn mower. I hope there is a fuel leak on your boat in the middle of bay.

******

Joe: did you want to try Foolin? I know that one.

Jon: I was just thinking, maybe we should keep Foolin’ in the set too.

Joe: I despise you

******

Erik: You're in love is a favorite as is just got lucky

I'm telling you, beautiful girls would go over well....

Joe: I'd like to see you go over in a well.

******

Pat: (to Handsome B. Wonderful of the Isotopes) We have a lot of stuff to discuss but I wanted to get the very very very important stuff out of the way first.
We’re debuting Whitesnake Slide It In – how do you feel about the Topes and the Dancers coming on stage and grinding all over each other while we play? Song needs copious amounts of humping.

Handsome: Sounds pretty funny. I would only grind on dudes wearing mullet wigs though. Especially blond ones

Jon: You may grind me but only from behind. I have a scorching case of herpes on the ‘ole tallywacker.

May 14th German House

Yet another triumphant return. Fri May 14th back at German House - this time we'll be joining forces with The Isotopes. Their songs might not have words but they totally make up for it with tasteful humor, ball splitting riffs, hot chicks who put out, and wicked science. Well, 3 out of 4 ain't bad.

More details soon.
