Here’s what we picked up lately… JIM FOSTER x-Bound.4.Venus / the DeNiros) is playing Irish folk music with THE BARLEYMEN and has concluded that Irish pubs have cleaner bathrooms than rock clubs. *** Multi-instrumentalist JEFF CLARKE has joined THE SUN LEE SUNBEAM on drums. *** Fans of THE RED TELEPHONE might be interested in BIRDWATCHERS OF AMERICA, seeing that both MATT HUTTON and PAT McDONALD are in the band. *** JESSE von KENMORE never stops adding new bands to his résumé. He’s joined with DREW SUXX (x-Lost City Angels/Ducky Boys) to form THE NEW ALINIS. *** ADAM ABRAMS (Aeolian Race) has joined SUGAR SNOW. *** BRITT LIGHTNING (Jaded) has teamed up with SAMMI MIAMI and other former Shööt the Möön members to form HOUNDSTONE. *** Guitarist CHRIS BRAT has joined THE SPOILERS. *** THE PRIME MOVERS (Mach II) have decided to call it quits after their initial reunion six years ago.
