We Heart HEART
From Golda--
So, this past weekend was HALLOWEEN weekend and we decided (OK, our friend RODNEY T. decided), in our (I mean, HIS) absolute GENIUS, to dress up as Nancy & Ann Wilson of the supergroup HEART. We KNOW, right??!? HEART MotherF'er's!! You gotta know that Gertie and I are gigantor extra-credit nerdy SUPERFANS of these two ladies. I swear to you that WHEN we meet these ladies (I invoke the power of THE SEEEEECRETTT), we will be as much of a blubbering mess as when Marcia met Davey Jones/Rosie met Babs/Kid met Play/Spam met Garlic Rice, you get the picture. In all sincerity, we figured that since we were already dressed up, that we would do a short Tribute video to HEART, our idols. Well, it was a long night. We spent all night at this great Halloween Party, we had tight wig issues, we ate way too many pumpkin-shaped cupcakes & sliders AND all that eye makeup was making it's way towards the last remnants of our brain cells. We never actually got any legit footage due to all above mentioned (and not-so mentioned) reasons. It was just one ridiculous take after the next. So here you have it - our HEART Tribute Gone Bad. We're Just Two Women, Sitting in Front of a Band...
From Golda--
You know the rest... If you don't, it's probably one of the BEST cheesey lines EVER in a romantic comedy. The movie title I'm thinking about rhymes with MOTTING NILL. That said... We recently had the opportunity to play with three ridiculously talented artists and - what can we say? We heart them. This is the FIRST TIME EVER that Durwood has performed with a full band. Usually it's just me and Gertie, sitting in Gertie's living room, playing songs whilst Archie (our faithful mascot Nebelung cat) nods her furry head in approval (or falls asleep - if she is bored out of her mind). Although we have only had brief playtime with these guys, we feel so honored to have the opportunity to work with them. We hope you feel the same way we do, too. Catch us with special guest artists David Tran AKA Applesauce, Abe Kim and Leticia Meza, TONIGHT at TUESDAY NIGHT CAFE, 7:30pm. If you can't make it to Downtown L.A. tonight, check out the LIVE stream starting at 7:30pm: http://www.tuesdaynightproject.org/watchlive/. It's gonna be unlike anything you have ever heard come out of DURWOOD before.
Durwood & Applesauce - "A Night to Rehearse" (A Silent Film Short)From Gertie--
A couple weeks ago Traci Kato-Kiriyama approached us about putting together a short video promo with David Tran (aka Applesauce) for the TN Party this year. We jumped at the chance to create this short theatrical piece in hopes of gaining some interest in the TN Party - a fundraising benefit for the Tuesday Night Project. This film was written on Wednesday, shot on Thursday, edited on Friday, and posted on Saturday. From Golda-- Hey Everybody!I just have to say I am soooooo super excited to be a part of the TN Party this year! At the least, I can't wait to eat. Don't get me wrong, I am very excited about performing this year but Boy-Oh-Boy, I sure love to eat! I'm a fan of two of the vendors coming to feed us: The Park's Finest & Good Girl Dinette. Johneric Concordia (the "Jefe" behind Park's Finest) comes up with the most tantalizing, lip-smacking BBQ (I love the Mt. Malindang Pork Ribs & Mt. Mayon Hot Sausage Links). I don't know what they do to make it so delectable, but I'm SOLD. And, don't even get me started on their cornbread bibinka! Anybody out there ever had Bibinka (it's a Filipino dessert)?? Well, lemme tellya something - you are missing out if you don't try it! So come on down this weekend. Good Music, Beautiful People and Spectacular Food in a gorgeous outdoor setting. I'll bring the handywipes.
