This just in from Dave Markey:
“Shot prior to the release of their breakthrough “Too High To Die” LP at the Ventura Theater, in beautiful Ventura California in 1993. Contains the super-rare Cris Kirkwood original “David Beware (Film The Trolls)” overture. They also jam out “Attacked By Monsters” & “Sam”. Edited in camera, Mannequins and Trolls courtesy of the stores on California Ave.”
For a look at some of Dave’s more current work, check out his video for “Rotten Shame.”
Sweet!!! Thanks Derrick and happy 4th of July!!

Funny!!! It’s a doggone shame the Pups don’t jam out to “Film the Trolls” anymore. It’s still cool to see how much their performances of songs have changed over the years though. Oh yeah, I was lucky enough to come across this vid of a Volcano show done years ago. To this day, it’s the only one I’ve seen. Curt’s best side-project, it’s just one of those things where you want there to be more more more!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IN7wzAjTSs

Hey there! I was just browsing when I came across your blog! I work for WXAV 88.3FM the radio station of Saint Xavier University in Chicago and we just had the chance to talk to Cris Kirkwood last week! We’re gonna be airing the interview on Thursday on my show around 3:00PM! Feel free to give it a listen! (www.myspace.com/thursdaynightcasserole – Has a link to listen live!)

Ah yes. As my youth marches on I can live vicariously through old Meat Puppets videos. Great video and really odd troll video. I freeze framed one of the close-ups of the 3 toothed troll with the W.C. Fields nose and scared my kid when he wandered into the room. Thanks for the memories.
