HAY PERRO

There are three new songs in the recordings section. Much to the ire of the audiophiles among you, they are encoded at a mere 160 kbps.

If you prefer to listen to them in even lower fidelity while looking at pictures of our friends and/or advertisements for upcoming shows on FOX, they are also on our MySpace page.

What’s up chickens.

Just testing out some new stuff for the site.

Don’t mind me.

We recently received some pictures that the frequently fabulous Di Kulka took of us at Ronny’s.

There are forty-nine of them. They are located here. My favorite is the tenth from the bottom.

Hay Perro will be on WLUW (88.7 FM in Chicago) on Saturday, July 7 at 2 AM (which, let’s be honest, is really Friday night for all intents and purposes.) We’ll be on the air with DJ Barb Wire. We’re sure to play several HP recordings (but probably not Come on Comrade, as that song contains the dreaded F-word, which the FCC wisely prohibits, because even at 2 AM the chance exists that an impressionable youth might turn on their Fisher-Price radio, hear that awful utterance, and thence be consigned to the path of sin, indecency, and moral relativism, and might even end up being a vegan or something.)

The banter will be unparalleled.

So when closing time’s approaching and the naked lady photo hunt game just doesn’t hold your interest anymore, tune into WLUW and let Hay Perro take the edge off.

…and no one had to disrobe!

Rock industry guru Martin Atkins has a column on the Suicide Girls web site where he answers questions from bands on how to handle the business aspects of being a band. In this column, he acknowledges us by name and takes some of our questions. This is mostly only exciting to people in the band, but we couldn’t not point out Hay Perro’s presence on a softcore porn web site.

Thanks to the fine people at Resurrection Health Center, Emily’s troublesome gallbladder is a thing of the past.

Thanks to the equally fine people at GuitarWorks, the unreliable toggle switch on Chris’s guitar is also a distant memory.

As such, HP has switched from “break” mode to “full throttle rock” mode. We will be proving this at the Note on the 25th.

We are sad to report that the Ronny’s show next weekend has been cancelled. Emily went to the hospital the other day and it turned out that her gallbladder needed to be removed. Wish her a speedy recovery.

…is the name of our debut EP. The cover looks like this. The tracklisting is as listed in the previous post.

Two mp3s can be downloaded from the Audio page, also linked on the sidebar. We will have the CDs for sale at Ronny’s tomorrow.

We recently spent a couple of weekends recording our debut EP with the Daniel Agosto. Since recording journals are seldom exciting, we will simply say that Dan was fantastically helpful, Brian’s solo on “Black Hat Preacher” is utterly face-melting, and we are very excited with the results. The disc’s tracklisting will be as follows:

1. Come on Comrade
2. Black Hat Preacher
3. Lacking Savoir Faire
4. Have You the Touch?
5. Put a Dollar in My Mouth

Barring any last-minute production snafus, the disc will be available at the below-mentioned Ronny’s show.
