Greetings Ghouls!!! I will be coming back from the grave again this summer and bringing my horrifying sing a longs to all of you live. I have some US dates in the works and the "Look What the Bats Dragged In" UK/Euro tour is coming this November, check out the tour dates for all the action. If that wasn't enough, I will be heading to Japan in January and there is also the possibility of Australia conjoined with it, keep your fingers crossed. However, 'Death Becomes You' will not be joining me as my backing band on these dates. The reasoning why they will not be joining me is not anything bad nor personal. I never said that DBY would be with me permanently. They were only my backing band for the "Graveyard A Go-Go Tour," and with hopes that we could continue on future shows, but I never made any promises. I will be doing a lot more live shows than I originally planned throughout 2004-2005, as well as recording my solo album, and I wanted to assemble a permanent band. DBY and I are 12 hours apart, which makes rehearsing extremely difficult. I wish there was an easy solution to this, but we are just too far apart to make things work on a full time basis and the fact that DBY is their priority. I would need the commitment of DBY full time and that would mean they would have to put their band on hold and relocate to North Carolina. This is something I would never ask them to do. Also, I'm not working on a big budget and I am funding everything myself. Take Murderdolls for example: Murderdolls would have never happened if Roadrunner Records wasn't footing the bill on traveling expenses, because we all lived in different states. Death Becomes You did a great job on the "Graveyard A Go-Go Tour" and I'm glad you all got to discover their band. I hope you will keep supporting them.
As
for the new Wednesday 13 line up? I have assembled a new cast
of ghouls, some good friends locally here in my town. These guys will be
playing on my solo record and joining me on the upcoming live shows as
well. I have began working with
the plastic haired, plastic faced 'Ikky' formerly of FDQ. Kid Kid
on Bass, formerly Lead Vocalist and creator of Lunatic Candy Kreep.
Completing the line up is Ghastly on the Drums, a stitched up
cadaver that you will surely 'die' for. The first show with
the new line up will be in the US in August, see the tour
dates for more info. Expect a different show altogether than the
last time around. A different set list, a different look, and I've
got a few new tricks up my sleeve...so look out.
I
will be entering the studio in two weeks to begin recording my
solo record. I have got some great tunes written for the album and I
promise that you will not be disappointed.
"6 years, 6 feet
Under The Influence" is available now in Japan (RoadRunner
Records/People Like You) and Europe (People Like You Records). So
get out of your coffin and get your hands on a copy today!!!! I know I
keep saying it, but the US release is coming soon... I promise. Keep
your eyes peeled in the upcoming months for features on the release in
all your favorite rock magazines.
Also on a sad note, unfortunately
there will be no more 'Full Metal Jack Off' columns in Metal Hammer. It
was great while it lasted, but it's over now. I hope you all got to
know me a little better through that and I will miss writing that
every month.
That's it for Now Ghouls,
Beware and Take S-care.

Hell-o Ghouls,
Sorry for the delay! Mrs.
13 and I have been busy moving and not to mention working on new things
for you Ghoul Scouts!! Here's a quick update on what's going on.
As I mentioned before, I am completing material for my solo
album and plan to hit the studio in July to record it. I'm trying my
best to make sure it will be out before the tour in the UK/Europe later
this year.
There will be a few select
US Dates in August and September, also tour dates for the UK/Europe are coming
soon.
US release news for
"6 Years, 6 Feet Under The Influence" coming soon.
Also there are some new 7"
vinyl's scheduled to come out as well, before the albums release.
These songs will not be available on the upcoming album and have
limited quantities on each.
The songs are:
"The Saw is
Family" for Fiend Force Records in Germany.
"Destroy All
Monsters" for Scarey Records Italy.
A tribute to Phantasm
split 7." "Mourningside Cemetery" Wednesday 13 and "Terrorsphere"
KillJoy (Necrophagia) on Coffin Records
In other news:
I have finally completed my
book, "The Thirteen Dead Kids and other Gruesome Scary Tales."
Mrs. 13 and I are currently trying to work out the publishing
company for it, so the release date for it now is undetermined. I hope
to have it out this summer. Also, coming soon - The
Thirteen Dead Kids dolls!!! We are working with Bump
In the Night Productions to make dolls of the kids!
We are working on new
Thirteen Dead Kids merchandise and some new Wednesday 13 designs for the
web-store.
That's it for now ... stay
Ghoul!!

Hell-o Ghouls, The auctions have ended and I want to thank you all for bidding on them. Maybe I will do this again at the end of summer to clear out some more of my things. As for an update in the World of Wednesday 13. Mrs. 13 and I are moving in May so that's been keeping us pretty busy here. In the meantime we are trying to work out a possible tour of Japan in the summer and another UK tour in the fall. I'm also working on putting out a few more 7" singles and a DVD of the Graveyard a Go Go UK tour. As for the US there is still no sign of a release on The FDQ-"6 Years 6ft Under the Influence" or tour. If things work out in the future and it is possible I will do my best to make it around the US. I'm currently completing work on my Thirteen Dead Kids book and hopefully can have it out this summer. It's not a novel or a huge book by any means, it's actually a children's style book that has Illustrations and poems about each Dead Kid as well as some other gruesome tales at the end. It's somewhere between Dr. Seuss and Dr. Frankenstein. There is also some new designs coming soon to The Thirteen Dead Kids store, keep your eyes and skin peeled for them. We also have limited numbered 8x10 prints of The Thirteen Dead Kids (signed by both Mrs. 13 and I) available now on eBay as well as some cool FDQ lots. I'm also writing and
planning to record my own solo record very soon and hopefully have it out
in the fall. I'll let you ghouls know as soon as I have something definite
on the release.

20, 2004 Greetings Ghouls!!! I want to thank all of you who have bid on my Horrifying e-bay auctions, the response has been insane to those items. I will be putting up one more week of haunted auctions and that's it. Good luck, and thanks again. Take S-care, In other news: Wednesday has been working on material for his own solo record which he plans to have out in the fall. Stay tuned here for all the latest. More tour dates are being planned for the summer and fall. More Thirteen Dead Kids Merchandise is on the way soon. Downloads have been added to the website! Check them out!!!
There's been a lot of questions about my
items that are on eBay
and why I am selling them. No I'm not changing my dress code and getting
rid of my clothes in order to buy a suit and tie and become normal. The
fact is, I have collected so much shit over the years, everything from
t-shirts, videos, books, toys, etc. I have ran out of room and I
need to get rid of some things. Mrs. Thirteen and I are moving in the next
few weeks and I have been packing up things and making piles of things
that I am getting rid of. For the next few weeks while I am packing up for
the move I will be putting items on eBay. I would have a garage sale here
at my home, but I don't think anyone from my little red neck town would be
interested in buying the things I am getting rid of. Besides, if I could
have had the chance to buy actual personal items from Alice Cooper,
Twisted Sister, or Motley Crue back in the day, that would have been too
fucking cool. There is no telling what will go up on eBay in the next few
weeks so check there often to see what has been added. I just wanted to
give all of you cool ghouls a chance to get some of these things, hope you
have fun. Till then....stay ghoul. |
