Make sure to pick up the new/next (October?) issue of Vice Magazine. It’s the “Interview Issue” and I wrote the entire review section. Rather, I conducted A LOT of interviews with A LOT of bands/artists in a VERY short amount of time (that was punctuated by a VERY REAL case of appendicitis). I’m not going to give the section’s title away, but it explains everything. I’ve seen the edit, and it’s a read good for some chuckles, insight, and irritation.
For those attending GonerFest 5 in Memphis this weekend, my comedy release, Earles and Jensen Present…Just Farr A Laugh Vol 1 & 2, will be available for sale at a discounted cost, as will the brand new issue of Chunklet Magazine and recently published beacon of music-related non-fiction The Rock Bible (Quirk Books), both of which sizeable contributions from yours truly.
From the Quirk site:
“Complete with faux-biblical illustrations and parables and essays from comedian Patton Oswalt, drummer Brian Teasley, and professional smartass Andrew Earles, The Rock Bible is a rude and raunchy look at the best and worst of rock ’n’ roll.”
READ MORE ABOUT THE ROCK BIBLE HERE!
A little insider info: As of its second or third week of availability, The Rock Bible is already in its second printing. For a book about music (albeit a HUMOR book about music), that’s not too shabby.
To order the 2 CD/65+ page booklet that is Earles and Jensen Present…Just Farr A Laugh Vol 1 & 2, which I’ve now decided to belatedly promote as the world’s only Lo-Fi Sh*tgaze Comedy Album, go here.
