Can you believe it's been over a year since we were here?

Well, it has.
What on earth have we been doing?

Well, there's the war, of course.

But now we're back and happy to announce the latest Raw Believer CD "Hunt Me" is out today.

We Goldfish have a new single coming out very soon..... lookout!

good friday april 6

It was twenty years ago today that the Mute Drivers played their first live show.

Upstairs At Harry's, in Bethnal Green.
All five albums, two singles, and a bonus album are going to be made available here by the end of June.

Look out!

Twenty years ago Larry Kramer and others formed ACT-UP.

Drugs where being withheld by the Bush administration whilst people died from AIDS.

One of those drugs was plant based.
PWAs were saying "We're dying, test these drugs on us!"

Here are the words to a song I wrote about it then, which appeared on the last Mute Drivers album.

PWA

Take a little piece of you and wrap it some tissue paper
Put it in an envelope and mail it today

Send it to the president and ask him when he's gonna spend

Some money, time, and energy on people with aids

By 1991 five million Africans will be dead and gone
When will what can be done be done

Done's the right word

Been stiched up real good

They're letting us die like flies

'Cause we're not you

We are your sons and we are your daughters

All we bring is love

Don't turn your backs on us

It's no black disease

It's no gay plague
Just people with AIDS and we all need saving

Now George Bush is president I wonder if he still remembers

Talking about the giggle factor

I'd like to know

Mister Invisible, what's so funny about dying people spending their money

On drugs without chemicals?

I don't get the joke

Larry Kramer is now in his 70's, and still going strong.

He is amazing.

How many Africans have died since 1991..........

monday february 5

Yes, a new Raw Believer CD is out today - La Doña.

Raw wrote the words to the 10 songs immediately after returning from visiting his mother in Guatemala.

The three of us wrote and recorded them all in one 8 hour session at De La Masure, mixed them the following two days.

Oh yes, we made the video at the same time.

6 days from conception to completion.

On the 7th day we rested.

That very same day it was played on Car Talk.

We made a video for it too which you can see on youtube.

Goldfish will be appearing live with Misty Roses in March at Tank in NYC - watch this space for the date.

We will be playing a brand new set with brand new film projection.

After much frantic emailing Raw Believer are to get back together and will be heading into the studio to make the second LP any day now.
Ssssh.... it's a secret.

After all that we put on our dancing shoes, poured ourselves a cocktail or two, and boogied to the following tunes:

10) Scullery - Clifford T Ward

9) Independence Day - Comsat Angels

8) Airwaves - Thomas Dolby

7) September - Earth Wind and Fire

The record also contains some of the songs that were to be our sixth record, plus a radio interview from 1988.

Phew!

tuesday october 31

We try to make sense of our little lives by imposing order on chaos, human made and natural.

We lie to get by.

As a great man once said - all things must pass, all things must pass away.

Peace and understanding.

wednesday october 11

Well, the world is about to implode as we over here go to war with North Korea, Iran, oh and Iraq and all those other irritating little places.

Meanwhile on TV torture is entertainment, a propaganda blanket.

We'll pay.

The scarier it gets the more in denial we are.

Must be time for a revolution

wednesday august 2

What on earth has been going on since may 20?

First off we've just finished putting our DeLaMasure studio back together in it's new home in Equinunk PA.

The fruits are forming nicely and will be picked and presented to you around harvest festival time.

The Misty Roses ep got held up due to artwork delays, but will be released December.

Monster Zero.

Still on tour with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

War, floods...
Rivers of blood.

It is over, if you want it.

New Misty Roses single is finished and will be released on Frogmanjake in the US, Rhythm of Life in the UK.

For the third consecutive year we ushered in the new with Life and Living's New Year Special on Resonance radio.

You can hear the first one right here.

What with all the moving, we had to put off finishing the new Goldfish DVD, but watch out!

It's coming soon.

Live dates to be announced.

Due to Life and Living's sabbatical, Letter From America is also taking a break, but you can read some of them here, or buy the compilation cassette from Life and Living's site.

Alright.

Back soon.

Keep it up!

Five Goldfish pieces all but ready. DVD will be available before Christmas so watch out.

Yet another Letter From America up.

friday october 21

Our brand new radio show Hello New York! went out as part of Life and Living on Resonance Radio on Tuesday.

Invited guests around an occasional round table gave their unfettered opinions on and guessed the identity of music old and new.

It was really fun to do. Look out for number two.

New Goldfish DVD is coming along and will be ready very soon.

A new piece of music from it is up on the site if you look.

New Misty Roses sounds so so good. Check them out whenever and wherever you can.

friday may 27

Jen's birthday on the 17th, Kate's birthday in a couple of days, Sara's birthday too. Happy happy birthday, lovlies.

Rough news for us but not for where he's going is that Raw B himself is going to school to be a teacher . Well, if I were three today this would be very good news for me, but I'm fifty-two and have to think about where all these songs are going to go, you know, practically speaking. Any thoughts, world? Funny thing about songs, they have their own life, but you've got to give them a good start, you know, your best effort. Some you go, well, that one's best left to quietly languish in its own personal grove and others just ping off on their own like they were only waiting for you to give them voice.

But when you've got these Raw Believer songs that no one's going to care about and they're so full of life and, like Mike Mok, bless him, said, all your friends are going to go wow and then nothing. Bird Thrower, I Took the Picture.

monday may 9

Raise up your glasses, blow all bangs and whistles, and celebrate Barbara's birthday today!

thursday may 5

In the wee small hours of this morning, hope you are all well and awake.

monday may 2

Well, viewers, as you will have seen there are a lot of changes afoot. Hope you like how it's going.

Ever noticed how bankers love to not help you when you need it most, how they pull up the ladder and stare at you through the open window of their ivory tower, laughing as they piss on you? Spect you have.

Don't forget, the 100th episode of Life and Living goes out tomorrow on Resonance Radio 13:30 EDT/18:30 BST.

sunday march 13

The lack of activity here is all due to being on tour with Slint.

Home soon, then look out.

thursday january 27

Common cold gripped.

Raw Believer debut last saunday was AMAZING!

Come on down to the next one at Alma on Thursday February 3, 187 Columbia St., corner of Degraw St., Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, 9pm sharp.

Watched BBC news on TV yesterday. UK government about to give themselves the power to detain any UK citizen without charge, indefinately, in the name of anti-terrorism.

Over here Condaleeza Rice, the bare-faced liar/old tanker, is Secretary of State.

Watch/hear Democracy Now!

sunday january 16

Raw Believer a week away.

Mixed old friends Suicide at The Knitting Factory last night. The best versions of Frankie Teardrop and Cheree ever!

Support was Thee Majesty featuring Nancy Sinatra/Joan Rivers look-a-like Genesis P Orridge. Not bad.

Don't forget, Our next Life and Living episode goes out on Friday January 21st at 6:30pm EST, 11:30pm GMT, repeated Tuesday the 25th at 1:30pm EST, 6:30pm GMT.

And another thing...

I know that censorship sucks, especially in life during wartime, but those new PS2 war games are just obscene.

thursday january 6 2005

A new year upon us and galloping away.

Raw Believer debut live performance is confirmed for the 23rd January at The Half King, 505 W23rd St, just west of 10th Ave.

Well well well. You'll have noticed a few changes, viewers. Hope you like them.

Our latest Life and Living episode goes out TODAY, Christmas Eve, at 6:30pm EST, 11:30pm GMT, on Resonance radio.

thursday november 25

Have you seen the ad for the new Playstation game? Set in North Korea, worked on by GIs back from Iraq?

And we can't say fuck on tv.

Happy Thanksgiving.

thursday november 11

Well, New York is a depressed city still.

The Christain right came out in force but that is not the whole. You first time voters didn't do the right thing, did you.

I know I know, Donald Duck was no solution, but now Mickey is going to really take it.

Got to keep on keeping on... chip away.... eventually it'll all fall down. Hope we live to see it.

OK, Life and Living is now up on the site. Our shows will be up straight after they air, more or less.

tuesday october 19

Donald duck, Mickey Mouse. Donald Duck....

A Bush in the hand....

We're being systematically strangled, and as I writhe stuff is falling out of my pockets. There goes the Constitution.

I hear tell the statistics don't show first time voters. If that's you, you are going to do the right thing, right?

I sang about Bush, in 1988.

Mute Drivers compilation is available right now!

At the moment there is only one song up to hear, Happy Birthday. That'll change soon as will the page.

People are sending in their photos, etc, whatever.

Do you have anything? Email us

6:30 EDT, 11:30 BST.

tuesday october 5

So...

Those big guns at one remove on the box tonight. Cheney, an old pro of old, versus Edwards (Blake?), a blinking child.

Surely one of them will push their necks out of the parameters and SAY something?

Even Cheney spluttering his red white and true blue bile would do, at debate on this lower level.

Oh how I wished for a sign, a message, an indication that Sexton Blake would uncover some part of his script, hidden between the lines, and shoot off a couple a rounds.

Ah but no.

Big Dick just kept on saying what Sexy was about to.

The camera angles and lighting designed to show Cheney the man, Edwards the boy.

A playground squabble for power hour.

How many damp squibs can you fit in an election?

Dino Ciani - died in 1974. Pianist. Film exists of his extraordinary life affirming musicianship.

We just saw it.

Glad I stayed alive long enough.

tour diary...

tuesday september 7

Played at The Casbah San Diego. Great show. Thanks to everyone. Those amps! A Sugarrush Railroad.

sunday september 5

Well.....

The show at USC at noon on the 3rd was predictable a week before we left New York.

We played a challenging set to a bunch of future born again Republicans.

That is why Mike Maturo (bless you) brought us out here.

Spaceland show that night we played almost brilliantly. Thank you Dane for the sound.

A day off on the 4th in LA. Did Bikram yoga class at the great tart's studio.

I had to leave after 40 minutes. The heat was SO intense. Not done it for too long. Barbara did it beautifully.

Whatever you say about Bikram Choudray those 26 postures in that 104 degree heat are magnificent.

Yesterday we drove out of LA and headed to the desert; 29 Palms, in fact, San Bernadino County.

Check out the map. Look at the size of the National Parks and the Indian Reservations in relation to the Military Bases.

Today. What a day. Drove through Joshua Tree National Park. Met a coyote on the way,

Plus a number of little scattling black and white animals,

Plus a number of diligent ants.

What a place. The desert.

What a day,

All day...

Drove back out west to La Jolla and the sea, the sea. Gold sky, pink clouds, a lavender surf on the big Pacific, at sunset.

Tomorrow Labor Day, off. Here is San Diego. The Casbah looms....

wednesday september 1

Well, here we are in LA. First show tomorrow.

Screaming kids directly behind us all the way on Jet Blue...

In a little hotel, free HBO, you know. Still, free high speed internet, free parking, free breakfast, and Six Feet Under on TV......

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sunday august 29

As the nazis prepare to strom their way into our city this coming week we are heading out west, on Wednesday, the day Hopalong hits town.

Our little tour starts in LA on Wednesday.

Show the other day at Pete's Candy Store was a a good rehearsal.....

Thousands turned out. Did you hear about it?

Best thoughts, strengths and energy to the fathers in our lives (and hey to my own dad, hope your soul is joyous).

tuesday june 15

As you can see, pop pickers, a bit more vamping of the website.

Been away in LA for a week or two

Been to the MTV Movie Awards zoo

Saw Sharon Stone standing alone outside a Portaloo

Saw Paris Hilton wilting like she's made of paper and glue

Saw Adam Sandler and his handlers littler than life

Saw Quentin Tarantino at a bar with the love of my life

And all the while with circus smiles my friends got quietly hammered

As the company drones climbed over the unknown in the clamor for glamour

thursday may 27

We've been busy having fun upstate working on a new album with Raw Believer and are today about to record the last few bits and pieces here in Greenpoint before finishing off the mixes.

The album is called 'When It Hurts Again' and will feature some new movies shot in the Catskills. Available here soon.

tour diary............with those liars

Salt Lake City 3/24/04 - Bricks

Woke early on the bus, just before heading down into the valley of Salt Lake City, strange and beautiful, with a kind of silvery light. The people, too, very graceful. Last and best show of the tour. We played and sang our hearts out. Such a pleasure to play shows with the wonderful Liars.

Just before soundcheck we looked up at the twilit sky to see the crescent Moon and Mars so close together. I thought of my niece Tessa Lucy, who lived for two days and where she may be heading now.

When we came back into the venue, Rog, who knows quite a lot about the stars, was telling us that the closeness of the Moon and Mars was significant. The first place one travels through after death.

Safe road, little one.

We both want to thank Robbie, stage manager, sound engineer, rigger, lighting engineer.

Denver 3/23/04 -- Bluebird Theatre

What a great place! An old theater, reputedly an old porn cinema, but, you know, one of those places with balconies and plaster comedy masks attached to huge seashells. We're still waiting to soundcheck at this point, so who knows how the gig will go...

...But there's a great guitar shop across the street where Laura Baxendale showed me the first guitar she refinished and her brother John fixed up my Gibson...

The gig went really well. We love playing music together.

Lawrence 3/22/04 - Day off

Spent a day off. Swam in the hotel pool, got online in a very nice internet cafe, ate some good cheap Vietnamese food, wandered around Borders book store.

Get it when you can.

Minneapolis 3/21/04 - First Avenue

Home of our friends Helen, Erik, and Hazel (see Life And Living)....

Very early all ages show, we were done, packed, and loaded by 7.30!

Barbara's guitar went out of tune right at the start so she had to reinvent her parts all the way (no gaps) which deserves an award and a big round of applause.

Liars came out in force, with Rog and heaped praise on us which made me cry and so.

Julian squeezed my bottom, so it must've been OK.

Went and had dinner at the Leaning Tower of Pizza, where Jade, Erik's son kills time/works.

(It was lovely to see you).

Chicago 3/20/04 - Logan Auditorium

Had an incredibly delicious breakfast at the Lula cafe next to the venue...one of those meals, hadn't had any dinner the night before-too nervous.

We played the best show of the tour so far, (though Barbara preferred last night for its crazy madding pool playing crowd… KT said everyone was high on E, probably true, but sparky sparkly)

Got a big applause and the crowd were with us all the way.

But hey, what the fuck. We're great. There it is.

Maya, doing merchandise, said we are rad, which is praise indeed.

There was a woman on the bus who talked about Matilda Wolftone, recited a poem: hair all greasy…can't remember the rest…it was great at the time.

Aaron is sitting up front with us trying to fix his sampler which glitched tonight. Ah, technology.

Oh yeah. I'm mixing Liars live sound......

Julian came running in and said that the door was doing that weird not locking thing so I showed him what Barbara showed me that she figured out that our driver Charlie said was amazing she figured out and I agree.

And soon the bus is about to move and we'll be rocked to sleep by it's undulation as we breathe in diesel and nicotine. Sweat dreams everyone.

Detroit 3/19/04 - Magic Stick

First show. We were absolutely terrified, so of course had an amazing time. Greg Baise, the man, said 'name this tune' and intoned what he later said was The Passions' 'Strange Affair'. We closed the bar.

Nice bus. Like a yacht someone said. Oh the sea.....and this feeling. How many people can you fit in a bunk?

monday march 15th

The ides.

Been a while because we've been busy on our Life and Living radio shows.

East Village Radio is going to air all the shows from #1 to #18.

In the city of angels coming to the end of The YYYs USA shows, and they've been a blast.
We're playing another show at Sin-e at the end of October. Watch this space for the date. We've got some new songs to play so come on down.
Watch out too for the debut album by The Paxels which we co-produced, on sale here soon. You can hear a fantastic piece called September Stratosphere and watch the movie we made for it at the iconscious film festival in about a weeks time.
Our Goldfish piece Electric Firefly is playing there right now. x

Hello you all of us, we had a lovely time (and still are) but if you'd like a burned cd of the music of the resonance radio show you just heard, send us a few coins or simply email to lulu@lulumusic.com. It was a pleasure. Lots of love from Benb, Steve, and Barbara. We all need it. xox

Carrying on with the writing and recording of our second album which is going extremely well, pop pickers.

sunday september 7

Spent the best part of the day getting this page up and running and making some other changes to the site, which you're bound to have noticed.

We played Northsix in Williamsburg last Thursday with Raft and FM Einheit, showing our new movie, shot at the beach. And played Sin-é Monday, on the Lower East Side, with the lovely Misty Roses

On 11 September, we're going to be broadcasting our second Resonance FM 104 radio show from our apartment in New York to the studio in London . The show's called Bermuda Triangle and it goes out live at midnight till one am GMT (that's seven till eight EST, the rest of you can figure it out).
Also, two of our movies are going into this really great online short film festival, iconscious. The festival is up on the site already. One of the Goldfish movies will be going up on 13 September... we're not sure which one. Look for September Stratosphere and Electric Firefly
