Tracklist, Dates for Bonnie "Prince" Billy LP, Tour
Bonnie "Prince" Bryant reports:
01 The Way
And speaking of covers, by all means check out the link below where Drag City has posted the sleeve art
for Master and Everyone. Dude, is that Freud? Talk about yer loose fur! You go, Billy!
As previously reported, the album will be preceded by a single, but only if your local record store
actually hides the actual CDs behind the seven-inchers. The slab o' wax will include the non-album
cuts "Happy Child" and "Forest Time", and also hit shelves on January 28th. And even though it kind
of scares us to tell you this, we have it on pretty good authority that Bonnie Billy will be releasing
another seven-inch down the road which finds our man Billy covering tunes from Monitor Records'
shock-rockers the Oxes. Then again, those kooks at Monitor said something once about Bonnie jamming
on a Mariah Carey cover with Wu-Tang's Buddha Monk and that shizznit never came out, so we'll see.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot... Oldham apparently needs your help booking his spring tour in alternative
venues in Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. "We want to do where there's
good places to play, doesn't must be too big," reads the grammar-challenged open call posted on Drag
City's site. So if you're an Oldham fan stuck in the boonies of the lonesome crowded west, truck it
to Drag City's website to drop the address of your favorite biker bar, abandoned drive-in theater, or
trailer park in the kitty. In the meantime, the Bonnie one has booked the following 2003 gigs all by his
lonesome:
01-27 Pittsburgh, PA - Rex Theater
Will Oldham is all set to return, in full Bonnie "Prince" Billy regalia, January 28th with Master and
Everyone, his third full-length under the Bonnie banner. This date is, by the way, in full compliance
with the 1997 Indie Rock Release Accord which mandates that highly anticipated indie-rock records not be
available for Christmas, not even for the novel hilarity of checking your aunt Gladys trying to score some
limited-edition Shellac vinyl at the mall store. Anyway, the Drag City dragoons were kind enough to pass
along a tracklist, but had to go and shit on our parade by reassuring us that opener "The Way" is not,
sadly, a Fastball cover. Tracklist:
