Freaking excellent gig. Go the Queens! Pulled out an old Misfits cover as well. These guys rock. Show me a better chick drummer in Melbourne than Ingrid & I’ll break out a nice shiny cutlery set & eat my hat, with a touch of relish on the side. Now if you could break out Gary Numan’s ‘Cars’ once in a while I’d be in heaven…
Well we got 8 mean tracks down on Friday... PHEW! Still yet to be mixed very very soon
the tracks are...
Buddy Buddy
When you eat flesh the world is your oyster
Getting in over my head
Homeless when I get old
Found it
Sourpuss
Stones in my pocket
Sword of Demercles
Maybe the worlds longest demo!!
Its a good sized ep, and almost the length of a friggen album! But being a demo we buzzed through tracking almost everything live so its very raw sounding...
HEYA ALL THAR IN AUS, NZ AND WHEREVER YOU MAY BE -
K' Road Queens will be playing our first Live To Air performance tonight (22ND MARCH) on PBS 106.7 FM here in Melbourne - live streaming if you're many miles away -go to the link below - be listening from 8pm Australian Eastern Standard time tonight (22nd March) -That's 10pm NZ time, or 10AM if you're in the UK - enjoy!
Thanks to all who listened in on tues night and thanks to the good people at PBS. We had a blast. If you are interested we are playing Thurs 24th at the Espy with the mighty Digger and the pussycats, The Sailors and a little stick of dynamite in the ear, ZOMBIE SEX GANG!!!! So get on down! Blow your load and your cash. What do ya'say Wanganui!!!
Update...
We had a great weekend... actually, a great week last week!
Starting with a PBS 'live to air' done in Easey Street studios, Melbourne, that went very well...
followed by 2 gigs in the weekend to some very responsive and happy crowds that seemed to like what we do, more than I could have hoped. Big crowd at the Espy on Thursday and shit loads of Kiwis at our Friday gig with Batrider- who were awesome.
There were a few requests for our demo, which is still being worked on.
Please be patient, all good things take time.
Watch this space!!!
We will also be playing again in a few weeks.
A 2am show at Pony...Little Collins St, Melbourne -Friday Night.... 22nd of April
(technically 2am, Saturday the 23rd)
Hey y'all! KRQ are playing the 2am show at Pony on the 22nd and it happens to be the birthday of the sexier of the two guitarist!!!!! Can you guess which? I am opening myself up for a bit of shit. So come on down and bring presents! Preferably not something you made yourself. BUCK FOR POPE!!!!!!!!!Well done D-rock and Stris!
Not something I made myself? What aboot my lifelike "interpretive" sculpture of you made with only glitter, a jandal and an egg carton? Selfish bastard.
Hi pie
Saw you pushing Buck for the big papal gig on a post to the 1QA thread. Do you r&r with those boys over there? They were back her for a couple of gigs in Wellington / Auck but we only have their seriously delerious CD for comfort back here in the hood.
boozy fun is all good! hope your pony gig leaves evryone 'a little horse'...if you havent heard 1QA live and your not playing yourselvs you should check them out on Monday at the Espy - they are part of the PBS FM Anzac Day Anarchy mass rock out from 4.00pm, I think you like.

Caps-lock 'AND HERE IT IS... '? That's it? I must say I epxected a little more in the way of fan-fare. Trumpets perhaps? A pair of gyrating saucy maidens bedecked in KRQ logos? Sky-writing? Even a chalked out message on my front steps would have sufficed. I mean, honestly people.
Man! I had a sexy dancing telegram with bells, whistles and big shiny helium balloons with www.kroadqueens.com written across them in big letters sent to your house bro? Didnt you get it?
very nice. I had no idea. I know two of you, derek and Phil.... dodgy dodgy boys.... Haven't see them in a long time, but DID catch up on..stories.. through Charlito.... any recordings yet?

Hey, are you talking about Edens bar -Auckland?
We live in Melbourne... we've got plans to come home to NZ at Xmas to play some shows. If you wanna organize something, we have contact details on our web site. Mp3's being sorted soon. Have you got mp3's we can listen to??
we have a demo coming out in a week or so, then will upload samples of that onto the website, there some stuff on there now..but its real poor quality and a little basic live recordings
we would love to sort a show out close to X mas... see if we can get abigger venue and some other sizeable names to play.. make a bit of an event out of it.. I have the resources to organise it.. just hit me with a date youll be in auckland when you know about it
What chance of a Wellington gig this year? I promise to not yell out Pop Song in between every song. Also have you heard The Drones? Could you bring them with you?
heya dust - yep, the plan is to definitely be over for several gigs nth & sth around chrissy - yup - The Drones are awesome, don't really know them personally, I think I heard they were doing the europe for a few months which a lot of melbourne bands seem to be doing at the moment. Will try though!
There's a fuckin great live scene over here, despite a lot of crap 70's wannabe Jet type stuff, there's a whole plethora of really interesting underground. I would recommend the Legends Of Motorsport ( think maybe you saw them on the Invis tour?) Solid Waste, Black Level Embassy (recording with Bob weston of Shellac fame) Zombie Sex Gang, Kamikaze Trio, Digger & The Pussycats... drop us a line with yr addy and I'll send you some stuff - (& the new STILL fucking unreleased Invis album!) cheers,
