One of my Long Legged Woman photos was used in the Threats & Promises section of last week’s Flagpole, here is the article and photo:
Go Long: The local noise provocateurs in Long Legged Woman are so busy these days, they’re gonna wear those legs down to nubs. The members are currently celebrating the achievement of releasing four CD-Rs in about a year’s time, and a new recording called Newtown Nights is due soon on the Thor’s Rubber Hammer label. The band is booking a full four-week tour for summer and the trip will include a performance at the 13th Olympia Experimental Music Festival in Olympia, WA, on Saturday, June 23. Better People will also play, as will the band I like to call The Real Noisettes, as in the former Athenian Brian Horst and not those limey bastards making waves right now. If you want to catch Long Legged Woman guitarist Gabe Vodicka and his horribly named side-project The Sugar Dicks, then head to the Caledonia Lounge on Thursday, May 17 where they will perform with The Cherokee and Some Animal and, as Vodicka says, “play greasy garage rock the kids are so fond of these days. Basically, we’re poseurs.”
