Happy Holidaze to all you
PUNK GLOBE
readers and here is to a great 2014!!!!! I sure hope you have a fun time planned to welcome in 2014... If you decide to just enjoy New Years at home it can be equally as fun as going out... First being that you save alot of bank... Which is an added plus for everyone these days.. Our hearts go out to all the thousands of people who have lost their lives with Typhoon Haiyan also known as Typhoon Yolanda in The Philippines... It has been described as the worst natural disaster in history... Here is a link to with some updates about what is being done to help the victims who have been displaced by the typhoon.. http://communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/moving-needle/2013/nov/24/after-typhoon-haiyan-how-philippines-coping/.... I was so happy to see that
PAULEY PERRETTE
working the phones at the CBS Telethon raising over $164,000 to help the victims of Typhoon Victims.... Also donating their time was
BILLY RAY CYRUS, SHERYL UNDERWOOD, SARA GILBERT, JULIE CHEN
and
SHARON OSBOURNE
... Find out more about
DOREEN SANCHEZ
and her husband
MARC VACHON

JUKE BOX
the former guitarist for
THE HICKOIDS
passed away from pulmonary issues at the age of 60 in Colorado... Sympathies to
RON "THE RIPPER" GRECO
of
CRIME
on the passing of his wife
SUSAN ADDISON GRECO
.
SUSAN
managed Retro City on Haight Street in San Francisco for over 20 years. San Francisco musician and scene make
ALEX WINER
passed away peacefully in his home.. So far there is no cause of death...
CHRIS ANTOLINA
put together a nice memorial for
ALEX
at The Bottom Of The Hill in San Francisco.. It was held during the old happy hour time that
ALEX
enjoyed so very much.. The place was really packed...
MIKE
and
YVONNE FRANKO, D.J., TONY
and
ANNETTE GAWENDA
were among the folks who attended...
MICHAEL SCHMIDT'S
good pal
ALEX CALDERWOOD
also passed away in New York City... We want to wish all their family and friends our condolences... A special thank you goes out to
DEBBIE DAVENPORT
and her husband
GORDON KENYON
for the great T-shirts and canned goods they gave me for a birthday gift... You both Rawk!!
SEB KINDER
has been rawking hard in the U.K. causing all sorts of mad chaos..
CLASS A
have been very busy playing lots of Holiday events.... When
SEB
is not playing shows, he is busy with his 8 year old dog named
RUDE BOY
.. In honor of one of his favorite bands
THE CLASH
!!!!!
AMANDA BYNES
has been released from the hospital..... Congratulations to
WILL SID SMITH
who will be releasing a new record called "Never Forget" on December 1st... Here is a link to his Facebook Music Page https://www.facebook.com/willsidsmith ....
LIBERTY BRADFORD MITCHELL
is working with
MICHAEL T WEISS
who is now the Director for her show
"THE PORNOGRAPHER'S DAUGHTER"
It will be opening in San Francisco on January 17th and running through February 16th at Z Below located at 470 Florida Street.... Some may remember
MICHAEL
from his successful television series
THE PRETENDER
which also featured my good pal
JON GRIES
.... Others will best remember him as
REESE WITHERSPOON'S
step daddy in the fabulous movie
FREEWAY
... He was married to the super talented
AMANDA PLUMMER
in the film.. She played
RAMONA LUTZ
and she should have been nominated for an Oscar for her short but very memorable performance.... All of the actors along with the film should have received Oscar nods.. Of course the film was written and directed by the brilliant
MATTHEW BRIGHT
.... Check It out below..
LIBERTY
is also getting geared up to go see
ONE DIRECTION
...... Speaking of
ONE DIRECTION
they recently won two American Music Awards for best Rock/ Pop Album of 2013 and also best Rock/Pop Group 2013...
TAYLOR SWIFT
who was there with
FLO
won Artist Of The Year award along with Best Country Singer.
FLO
invited the crowd to an after the awards party at
THE BLACK LIGHT
where
WILL SID SMITH, DONNA DESTRI , STEVEN JONES SHARLA CARTNER, THE FLOYDIAN DEVICE, MS. LIGAYA, HEIDI BECK, JEFF TAD, LEE, JAVIER, IRIS BERRY, TYLER VILE, GINGER COYOTE
and
SEB KINDER
were going wild....
ARIANA GRANDE
won Best New Artist... Single Of The Year went to a Country Rock act named
FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE
and Rapper
NELLY
... I gotta admit I kinda liked the
FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE
and
NELLY
combination.. They all held their own well... Take a listen
I am really liking
DEMI LAVATO
with the blue hair. She seems to be a well rounded young star... I had heard that she had substance issues a few years back and went into rehab. After she was released she lived in a sober house for well over a year... She was serious about staying sober... Unlike
LINDSAY LOHAN
....
BEBE BUELL
and
JIMMY WALLS
are loving life in Nashville.... They often see various members of the cast of the TV show
NASHVILLE
at Trader Joe's and at Walgreens.... In the area that
THE BLUEBIRD
is located!!! Congratulations to
TARA REZ
and
DONNA DESTRI
for getting the most hits ever in the
PUNK GLOBE
.. For being
PUNK OF THE MONTH
... Even better than
FLO
did... I went with
HEIDI BECK
and three others to see
MDC, NEGATIVE APPROACH
and
THE CASUALTIES
recently....
THE CASUALTIES
seemed to be almost the punk rock version of
ONE DIRECTION
playing very generic punk rock with their "model girlfriends" draped around their necks after the show... In fact I like
ONE DIRECTION'S
version of
"ONE WAY OR ANOTHER"
and
"TEENAGE KICKS"
better than their version of
THE RAMONES
"Rockaway Beach" cover that they did...
MDC
who should have been headlining kicked major ass..... It was great seeing
DAVE
and the guys... They came in and played old school done right.. They showed up all the other bands on the bill that night.... The tour has now come to an end for
MDC
... It seems that there was a boycott going on against
THE CASUALTIES
involving an incident that happened with the lead singer of the band and a Woman 16 years ago... People were demanding that
MDC
and
NEGATIVE APPROACH
leave the tour.. But for the bands to leave the tour it would have been very complicated and costly.. Contracts had been signed with the promoters. Fans were expecting to see all the bands that had been advertised. Not just one band... Not to mention the cost of T-shirt that were printed, van rentals, and work schedules that had already been altered... It is much easier said than done... Sadly on one of the final dates of the tour that
MDC
played, one of the members of
NEGATIVE APPROACH
was assaulted on stage by a audience member who was pissed that were playing on the same bill as
THE CASUALTIES
... Retaliating with violence to an innocent band member who is only playing on the same bill is just not a valid reason to assault someone... As I mentioned last month that
IRIS BERRY
had injured her leg due to a sidewalk that was not maintained properly .. Well, two months later it is still bothering her but she is keeping busy with
PUNK HOSTAGE PRESS
... And also doing an occasional reading... She was so happy that she got to see
PAULI GRAY
in September in San Francisco.. She is also very sorry to hear that someone stole his big Black Dildo!!! Well it really is from his work, but it sounds better saying that it is his... Recently I was very lucky. While walking south on Highland Ave towards Hollywood I met my a handsome guy who lives in the hood... .. After we exchanged formalities we went and had a drink. His name is
ALEX
he is 21 years old and from Italy... Very cool guy!!
HOLLYWOOD HATE
are kicking major and better than ever... Taking no prisoners...
PUNK GLOBE
would like to give out a few Birthday Wishes to our family. Happy Birthday to
JIM ROSE, OZGUR COKYUCE, ROTTEN, THE GYPSY POET, SHAMAMA
and
JOE DALLESANDRO

KIM
and
JOE DALLESANDRO
have been busy with friends from Texas visiting.... But even that did not avoid the controversy that erupted when Facebook decided that
JOE DALLESANDRO'S
profile was a fake and they removed his page.. All hell broke loose with all sorts of calls and emails being sent to Facebook... Letting them know that they had removed the real deal... Within hours
JOE'S
Facebook page was reinstated...
KATHY PECK
has been working hard with major back issues so that she and her husband
DAVID DENNY
can attend this years
NAMM
.... It was thanks to
KATHY PECK
that
JOE DALLESANDRO
found a good trademark lawyer... You Rawk
KATHY PECK
!! It was great seeing
RODDY BYERS
at The Redwood recently.. The band sounded great and
RODDY
was in a good mood... Less stress than touring with
THE SPECIALS
... Thank you
TIMM CARNEY
and
PETER CLUFF
for a lovely Thanksgiving...
BRIAN KROLL
has written another dysfunctional Holiday song for you all.. He was hoping that he would have the animated video to showcase in the Holiday issue of
PUNK GLOBE
... Sadly it was not finished at press time... You can listen to the song here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66350542/My%20Son%20The%20Bum%20-%20Flight%20Deck%20(For%20Christmas)%20-guitar%20mix.wav I hope you all enjoy.... Oh boy something to look forward to The Bachelor is coming back on TV...
