"You're Welcome!" Kickstarter is launched!

Crazies...the moment has arrived. The new E6 Kickstarter project has now gone LIVE at https://www.kickstarter.com/…/e6absolutetre…/youre-welcome-0

"Live" is a good word for it as well, for that is half of "You're Welcome," our latest and greatest Kickstarter endeavor. One half of "You're Welcome" is a LIVE record, but this one is being recorded in the UK, at Oxford Academy on April 22. For the first time, UK (and European) fans have an easy opportunity to be part of an E6 live recording. You can get your tickets for that show at http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/event/DEH2204Z

The second disc is a sequel of sorts to our "Mimicry" set from a couple of years ago, as it'll be comprised of covers some selected by the band and some by you, the Crazies. We know the deep Crazies love Electric Six turning stylist and thus the idea for this collection was born. It's guaranteed to be a blast. For both this and the live recording, we have the same production team which worked on "Mimicry," "Absolute Pleasure" and "Absolute Treasure" with us, so it's all going to be immense.

We've also got a new feature this time around as a $20 add on to any package (or free if you're pledging at the $500 level or beyond)...the E6 Subscription Club. In short, you get early previews of the next record via demos, a remix of a song from that record, and a totally unique song not on that next album, plus older material from the vaults, photos and who knows what else. Check the Kickstarter page for more details.

We've got the usual list of exciting reward packages, plus some brand new ones as well, for you to check out. So hit the link above to get close to us one more time!

Dick Valentine Solo Shows in September

Dick Valentine is pleased to announce his next two American solo acoustic shows:

Sept. 2 in Kalamazoo, MI at Louie's Trophy House and Grill. He's never played in Kalamazoo before so this is an honor. This is a fucking honor.

Sept. 3 in Chicago, IL at the Double Door in Chicago, IL. Apparently the venue has turned the basement into a smaller venue for just such an acoustic event. And Scott Lucas from Local H will be on the bill that night performing an acoustic set as well. Should be a stone groove. 

Two more opportunities to buy his latest solo acoustic CD "Halloween Fingers" directly from him.

State of the Six Address: New Shit is Coming to Light

BROOKLYN, Feb. 12 -- The following can be attributed to Dick Valentine:

Hey everybody!  Long time, no type!  I don't write as much as I used to because I ain't angry no more.  But that doesn't mean I shouldn't keep you in the loop.  As many of you know, we are about to announce our kickstarter campaign for the live DVD we are doing in September and that's exciting.  Also we are about to start a 6-week tour that takes us to some of our favorite places to play shows.  So that's also exciting.

But I am happiest about the fact that we have begun recording our 9th studio album and we are off to a great start.  The new songs are proving to be SHOWNOTSTOPPERS.  That is to say, when you hear them, you will not want the show to stop.   I've never understood why they use the term 'showstopper" to denote a pleasing song.  If it's a good song, why would we want the show to stop?  We would want the show to continue!  Therefore I decree our songs are SHOWNOTSTOPPERS.  That is to say, when you hear them, you will not want the show to stop. 

Anyhow, after taking a year off from writing new material, it's good to be back and these songs are going to be fun to play when we tour for this album in the fall.  Til then, I hope you can make do with one more go round of the old showstoppers.....
