The Roundup: Down Cows news 9 March 2009 Down Cows STAMPEDE San Francisco!!! Who: Down Cows, Psychokitty, The Zoidbergs, and TBD Down Cows Stampede into The City By The Bay (what's not Alviso) Tuesday April 7th at El Rincon Restaurant and Club. Down Cows' Rich Dairy Sound will be heard along with San Francisco bands Psychokitty, The Zoidbergs, and everybody's favorite, To Be Determined (TBD!). Come on out for great Cuban and Mexican food, great beverages, and hearing some fine Bay Area music. OTHER DOWN COWS NEWS Down Cows now on Facebook! Down Cows on Twitter! Fancy a bit of the humour? Dog Without Warning We're still writing and tracking new material, hoping to bring you even more Rich Dairy Sound in 2009. Naturally, Mr. A, Tooch, and John will keep you informed of their goings-on as the year progresses. 11 May 2006: Thanks to all who came out to Barefoot Coffee Roasters last Saturday. The show went well musically, and as always the beverages and the ambience were excellent. Your Faithful Drummer got into the espresso during the break and pushed it to 180 bpm, but he regrets the error and swears it won't happen again. We're looking at a return engagement somewhere in early June, and we'll let you know when the details get set. Someone will get sent off to update the web page, fear not. And finally, the Cows are heading into the studio this summer to record properly glossy versions of some of the tunes; we'll update you with details, pictures, maybe even snippets of sounds as things progress. Most of the Gods Of Rock Whom We Worship aren't on the road right now, with the exception of Wisely who's on the Right Coast and Midwest for the rest of this month. If you're in town, go see him pronto and throw up the horns during his set, especially if he plays Bacharach. Otherwise, we encourage you to get out and see as much live music as you can, particularly on a school night. 23 February 2006: Down Cows are hosting a yard party in Sunnyvale for recording artist Wisely! Willie Wisely (website) will be performing at the Norman Compound, nerve center of the Down Cows musical production proto-empire, on Saturday April 1, 2006. (This is not a joke.) In case you havent met his music before, its a melodic, energetic pop with thoughtful, evocative lyrics: a perfect complement to Down Cows own rich dairy sound. Doors open at 7:00 pm, music starts at 8:00 pm. Depending upon circumstances, well try to get in a Down Cows set afterward. Its a casual garden party, so well have some beverages available and well have a nice hot grill stoked up. Cover is an astonishingly affordable $10 (cheap). All ages welcome. Directions to 1490 Norman Drive, Sunnyvale Calif. are available at this link. 15 January 2006: Weve survived the holidays and are writing and rehearsing like fiends. Watch this space for performance updates, or subscribe to "The Herd" for info as it happens. 10 November 2005: Wed like to thank each and every one of you for making our first show a success!!!
