Science Fiction Double Feature, Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies, Rocky Horror, rocky horror picture show, NoFX, Foo Fighters, Swingging Udders, Lagwagon, Meatloaf, fat wreck records, cover song, creepy cover





Science Fiction Double Feature [ Me First and The Gimmie Gimmies / Richard O’Brien ] Creepy Cover



From the Vault …. October 29, 2010


I’m actually suprised it took this long to feature Me First and The Gimmie Gimmies on the show. The Gimmie Gimmies are a “punk” super group cover band consisting of members of NoFX, Foo Fighters, Swinging Udders and LagWagon. Formed in 1995, they’ve released seven albums, and you should buy every one immediately. Fine, before you do that have a free mp3 of the #3 song on my Creepy Cover Count Down from the Fat Wreck records website. You’ll do it, I promise.



The original version Science Fiction Double Feature you may remember from an obscure movie called Rocky Horror Picture Show. I’ve never seen it, but I hear MeatLoaf was great in it.

the pretender, cherri bomb, Foo Fighters, cover song




The Pretender [ Cherri Bomb / Foo Fighters ] The fact that I can’t think of anything to write about Cherri Bomb except to point out that they’re an all girl group, just shows how sexist America is. There’s a glass ceiling for women rockers, that no matter how hard they work and how talented they are, they can do little more than press their bare breasts against that glass. No if you’ll excuse me I need to go to the store and buy tissues and hand lotion.

Baby Hold On [Foo Fighters / Eddie Money]

In February 2000, the Foo Fighters recorded a cover of Eddie Money's "Baby Hold On," which for some reason I always though was actually called "Baby Hold On To Me" to be used as a B-side in one of the singles for There Is Nothing Left to Lose, However, it was not used as a B-side as planned. They later recorded a part of the song as an acoustic version as part of a radio session for the Rockline radio program. I think this version however is from an old episode of Craig Kilborn.
