SAVVY
SHOW STARTER (always locally recorded!)
The
Hoot Owls -- Minnesota Hotrod Man (The Legend Of El Camino CD-R; no
label)
The Hoot
Owls are a bluesy sort of hot rod band from Duluth, Minnesota, and members
of the Misfits car club there. We dug the track "Minnesota Hotrod
Man" for its integration of old-school putdowns of contemporary
coffeecan-exhaust pipe riceburners with time-tested "Hot Rod Race"/"Hot
Rod Lincoln" constructions. Plus the homebrewed CD-R features a
pic of the lead guitarist sitting in his dad's preserved mid-'60s Pontiac-motored
front-engine A/Dragster -- a car he still owns. Too cool.
