Heidi´s Crush List.
Heidi Fischbach from Cambridge, Massachusetts blogs:
“So yes, I’m adding Katzenjammer to my list of crushes, right alongside Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Rufus Wainwright and the Indigo Girls, sharing a scene with Johnny Depp and Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep, clinking glasses with directors Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Suzanne Bier, and artist Shepard Fairey, exchanging verses and stories with Paul Durcan, J.K. Rowling, Billy Collins, Mary Oliver, Pablo Neruda and T.S. Eliot…”
That sounds like a great party!
Making Cherry Pie.
Vimeo user Cris Radoff made this literal interpretation of Cherry Pie, the song, by making cherry pie, the delicious pastry. Hat tip: Thomas Mårlund.
Even Nobel Prize Leaureates Like Katzenjammer.
Paul Krugman, bad-ass keynesian economics prof at Princeton, New York Times op-ed columnist, Nobel Prize leaureate and one of the most popular bloggers in the world, puts up a video of Demon Kitty Rag as his Friday Night Music relief moment away from the more or less wonkish (and these days pretty dreary) analyses of coming Greek defaults and the Medicare-busting Ryan budget.
“A commenter recommended this group”, he writes, “and they’re just what I needed to cheer me up after a cold, very rainy day in southern California.” Glad to be of service, professor Krugman!
Rock, Paper, Scissors Nabs The Rebel Playlist.
And once again all you super-duper people have propelled Katzenjammer onto every daytime programme on BBC6 for a whole week, via Steve Lamacq´s Rebel Playlist! Thanks again for voting!
Rock, Email, Rebels.
In February, all the fabulous Katzenjammer people on the net helped the band win the spot on Steve Lamacq´s Rebel Playlist on BBC 6, which meant that “I Will Dance” was played on every daytime programme on the channel for a whole week.
Well, now Katzenjammer are up for another round, this time for “Rock, Paper, Scissors”: you can lend a hand by going here and sending an email to Steve. Thank You!
Call Of The Wyld At Scala
Blog Call Of The Wyld reviews the Scala London gig:
“The girls take it in turns to showcase themselves. It is pure Vaudeville. Banjos are plucked, ukuleles are strummed, and accordions are wheezed. There is much harmonising. Anne Marit, Marianne, Solveig and Turid are so impressive that it is hard to resist them.”
“Watching them perform, you get the feeling that the only thing that could limit Katzenjammer’s success would be the size of audience that they can play to. They will do fearsome damage at this summer’s festivals.”
