MUSICAL CHAIRS
Lolita: Rita, I heard you picked up another job. Someone told me you’re a receptionist. Rita: No, you misheard. I’m a receptarist. Lolita: Yeah, that’s what I said; only I took the cake out of my mouth before I spoke. Rita: A receptarist is a collector of recipes. I happen to know that KELLY DAVIDSON (photographer) and ERIC SCHMIDER (Mollycoddle) are also receptarists because they are gathering recipes for a Boston rock ’n’ roll cookbook. Lolita: Wait a second. Back in 1987 we were in MONIKA BOLINO’s Boston Rock ’n’ Roll Cookbook. Rita: Well, good recipes need to be recycles—just like good musicians switching bands. Now let's get to our little game of musical chairs—whose been fiddlin' with who... KARA TROTT (x-Fluttr Effect) has hooked up with INCUS. *** BRIAN VIGLIONE (Dresden Dolls) is hammering the drums in THE CLIKS from Ontario, Canada. *** With the departure of the Duke in FREEZEPOP, ROBERT JOHN “BANANAS” FOSTER (aka Seth Damascus-Kennedy) and MARIE SAGAN have joined Boston’s long running electronic pop group. *** MIKE LOCE (the Noise) and JAMES GAUDETTE (Johnny Carlevale & the Rollin’ Pins) have formed THE DOUBLENECKS. No, they don’t play doublenecks. *** STEVE FARMER and JEFF DiBIASE of DRUNKS DON’T LIE have a new band called BLACKBELT DYNAMITE. *** GENO JOHNSTON (Dead Friends) has been wielding the axe in REFUSE RESIST. *** MATTY SANDONATO (Scrapes) is playing guitar in the new line-up of GANG GREEN. *** JJ & THEE CUBAN HEELS are JJ RASSLER (guitar/ vocals), MIKE YOCCO (bass/ vocals), JEFF NORCROSS (drums) and JULIAN HAMMOND (guitar/ vocals). *** PETE WEISS (Weisstronauts) played GEORGE HALL's twangy guitar lines on EDDIE JAPAN's latest CD. George couldn't make it to the session so Pete pinch hit. *** BILL HINKLEY (Tree) is playing with NEVER GOT CAUGHT. *** THE STONE STRANGERS are BOBY BEAR on drums, GERRY BELLEGRADE on bass, BOB METZGER on guitar, and KENNY CHAMBERS singing and playing guitar. Lolita: So they’re a new band? Rita: Well, they’ve been around for three years, but we just noticed.
