News From The Front

Attention bootleg enthusiasts! A gentleman named Humbert made and mixed a hi-fi masterpiece which chronicles the most recent Song Fight get-together (12/12/03, San Francisco). The Frontalot set is online, so go grab yourself all twelve tracks, or just stream the whole thing. Fans who are both attentive and kind are asked to excuse the occasional botched lyric.

Did you hear part of a Front song on NPR? The internet was listening for you (12/31 show).

See the latest gallery additions.

Now watch a tiny man perform his unwilling dance routine, coerced by the PA Theme’s sheer funkiness.

Go out and buy Walking Dead number three. One of the zombies is MC Frontalot.

When you get back, read recent interviews: True Madness and Fuzzy Blowfish.

Finally, note that there are Big and Extra Big Frontalot shirts accessible via the spend-0-tron, which is not to say that stickers are sold out, because you can buy those too.

Friday’s show was a blast, a hoot, a real swingin’ wing ding! You think it’s easy to front that hard for twelve songs in a row? So does our good MC, who, despite ease of material and kind cheers of crowd, could not have done it without blue, mo, and euc. Frontalot wishes to thank these, the other show-rocking superstars, and the attendees.

New shirt batch races westward via private post! Stickers in stock! Also! Front wants a laptop for Christmas. You’re not going to buy him one all by yourself, but every drop in the bucket helps.

And! True Madness magazine posts front interview.

The Front grows ever older. Someone gave him a ten cent gift certificate to Fry’s. Pretty clever. If you missed Front’s birthday, perhaps you feel bad enough to give him dollars.

Or maybe you’d rather spend those dollars! The store is open, and the stickers are in stock. The shirts are almost gone, but more arrive by month’s end. Get shopping!

And if you have already bought & received your shirt, MC Frontalot expects you to send in a picture for hisGallery Of Cute Girls Wearing My Shirt. Even if you’re not cute. Or a girl.

DO NOT MISS Front’s headline appearance at San Francisco’s Accordion this Friday night (12/12). He commences rapping at midnight. Come at 9PM and see MISS, Pray For Mojo, Ken, Brother Machine, andSon of Supercar. A full bill for five dills!

Happy Turkey Day, ye shunners of the vegetarian credo! It is good this evening to stuff your face with whatever’s at hand, hug family members, etc. So do.

The Frontalot store is open. Stickers are pre-orderable. Tee shirts are in stock, and that stock is limited. So get spending!

LIVE SHOW DEC 12th! Mark those PDAs, kids, it’s the first pre-announced Frontalot gig in you-can’t-remember-how-long. At Accordion (née Hot Lunch) in San Francisco. Details to come!

Front has become a reviewer at drew’s Sharing Machine, which is kind of like Song Fight but less violent.

Frontalot tee shirts are on their way! Believe you us, we’ll be hollering nice and loud when they’re ready. There will be a new store page and everything. A cheesy bunch of paypal buttons, okay, fine. But that’s a store.

The latest song is still “Message No. 419,” also known as “Urgent Business Relationship” if you’re grooving on some Outside The Inbox. What’s that? Only the awesomest compilation of songs with spam subject lines for titlesever. Bradsucks is getting the good press.

We’re in the process of giving the site a thorough CSSing. If anything looks totally wrecked, please report in.

It’s front’s birthday again pretty soon. Maybe you want to send him money like a sucker?

New song! Message No. 419 is available on the music page. It was recorded for the bradsucks comp,Outside the Inbox, available soon.

Front straddles the ½-way mark of his two week visit to our nation’s capitol. Watch for him in the coming days, marching alone before the white house, holding high a small sign which reads “hey, quit that!”

Plenty of new fan art posted. Send your own. It might be too insulting (read: accurate) to find purchase in the gallery, but all kinds of artworks are welcome in Front’s private collection. Fans also recently mailed usevidence of an infringement and evidence of fine taste. What’s that? You want your own Frontalot sticker? Several varieties available in about a month.

And we are anxious not to forget: DannyWilson posts his CBBB video for Crime Spree. Sweet! Xvid required.

Our good MC has not fallen from the face of the earth! He was in evidence among the crowd at a songfight.orgconcert this very Saturday (previous) and was heard to exclaim that Son of Supercar rocks, though he was not well heard in this exclamation, as the rocking was quite loud.

A new song is available! Though not to you. Members of Front’s VSP are currently enjoying a little taste of “Message No. 419,” and you reg'lr folk can have it on Monday. It’s for the bradsucks comp.

Also, there is a ton of new fan art. You people are the greatest. Wish we had it posted for you. Don’t. Monday!

A glorious time was had by most at Song Fight Live in Seattle last Saturday! Various online reports of Frontalot’s inexcusable drunkenness are not exaggerated. If you came to the show only to learn all the words to the middle verse of Listen Close, we point out that the lyric archive does not suffer from beer-induced forgetfulness.

Afterwards, in a stunning 18th-hole upset, Front bested PA’s Tycho at Mario Golf, thereby wearing out his welcome well before it grew time to bum bus fare from the celebrated web luminary.

Front reports that Seattle is awash in sunshine, has a kick-ass rock museum, and tries at every turn to serve you an Americano when you want a goddamn drip coffee. Why not spend your next vacation in that fine town?

And! New fan art.

Front rocked the Sennheiser (that’s German for “microphone”) at the Erpies in Oakland Wednesday night. Were you among the lucky few to add a live nerdcore performance to your list of life experiences?

If not, there’s still hope: Front is part of Songfight Live III in Seattle this Saturday night. Details!

The latest songs, “Braggadocio” and “Gonna Be Your Man,” are available atop the music page.

ANOTHER new song: Gonna Be Your Man. Available only at songfight.org for the time being.

TWO LIVE APPEARANCES: Weds, July 16th, in Oakland (click for info) at the Erpies. And Sat, July 26th in Seattle (more clicking yes) at Songfight Live III. In both cases Front will rhyme for a couple songs in the midst of a large collection of awesome musics by various peoples. Attend the hell out of these events please!

Thanks to all the new sux0rz! Special thanks to the PA crew, they’ve been extra generous in helping me visit their home town.
