Why did it happen so fast?

Friday was satisfying for Killer Clan of F.U.N. as a band, for me personally as I was managing the whole event and for the people who came, because this means we now will have a good stage in Lund to put Rock n roll acts on! It’s like in the golden days of Lund back in the 70s and the 80s. When Zappa, Kiss, Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, Thin Lizzy, David Lee Roth, Ozzy Osbourne and a lot of other cool artists and bands visited the small town and left a mark of young lust, make up, puke and rock n roll!
Outside Mejeriet 1 hour before we opened the gates, there was actually a small crowd!!!
Inside, my dear friend Big Boned Barabas held court in the backstage area getting his make up by Mirre from MTV. He’s a wierd-, but handsomelooking dude and he really knows how to pic them girls!
Thank you all for the support, it was totally fantastic. We have got so much fanmail and nice words from a lot of really cool people… you!
We even got fan art sent to us this week. Thank you Axel!
Come and join us when we record the backing vocals for the upcoming album “The World of Voodoo” on saturday. We meet up at the central station in Lund at 6.45 PM (18.45)!!!
Over and out, fly and shout/ Maniac
PS. Here are two tracks from the concert. The starter “Stay-In-Bed-Day” and the AC/DC-cover “Dirt Deeds Done Dirt Cheap”. DS
Lying and the F.U.N. it brings

Yep.
I totally lied last time. Not about Maniac, no matter what he’s trying to say on Facebook, but about this post. I write alot about Maniac, but that’s just because I don’t think he can read it himself. So if I offend him my “reader guy” I’ve hired for Maniac will skip the really nasty parts. I guess what I’m trying to say is that it’s about time that I started talking shit about some of the other members. And by “shit” I mean lie, and by talk I mean “spew”.
Since I know some of you disapprove of “spewing” here’s a picture of a puppy
So there’s not alot of talk about Bedlam. I know what he does on friday nights and let me tell you, it ain’t pretty. I’ve actually seen him drink a can of soda. I asked him if there was booze in it but he refused to answer. The bastard. And let’s not forget about Stuff, the so called womanizer from the east. The bastard thinks he’s gonna steal all of my sweet ladies, but he won’t know what hit him when I’m done with him. What can you say about 3B that hasn’t already been said? Well, how about the FACT that he refuses to play shows unless he gets fish for dinner. FISH! What kind of rock n’ rollers are these people?!

So before I leave you for today, here’s a picture that might help you figure out my plan for the ride to Stockholm Rock Out on friday.

Don’t mess with 3B

So, to pick up where Big Boned Barabas left off, the beef between him and Maniac may be a little unclear to all of you reading the blog, but you could say that it stems from some of Maniac’s stage gear that BBB finds highly offensive.
And BBB’s not the type to sit quietly when he feels he’s being mistreated.
This personality characteristic becomes particularly evident in rehearsal. For example, make the slightest little noise during one of his drum intros, and you’re setting yourself up for a shitstorm of insults, profanities and threats of physical violence.
Sounds horrible perhaps, but it’s all done in good fun and definitely serves to keep sprits high in rehearsal or on the road. Besides being the best drummer around, BBB has a wonderful knack of coming up with one-line insluts that will leave you rolling on the floor laughing. (After all, he did volunteer to kick Maniac’s ass on the very day he joined the band. An offer that still stands, by the way).
Speaking of rehearsal, we got a busy week ahead. We practised the set and the new songs the day before yesterday and we’re going back in on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday to make sure we sound our best for the upcoming gig at Stockholm Rock Out. I’ll let you know how it’s coming along…

The story of the Killer Clan of F.U.N.

The Story of Killer Clan of F.U.N.
One rainy day, Bedlam and Maniac Daniels were drinking life threatening amounts of whiskey and fiddeling on guitars. Maniacs guitar was bought at K-mart and couldn’t be tuned… so he smashed it over the TV-set. Bedlam found that so impressive that he wrote a pile of red hot guitar riffs while Maniac, curled up in a corner, screamed out his longing for outrageous intoxication. On the back of a couple of unpaid bills from his landlord the cock-eyed Maniac managed to put down some snippets of lyrics (This later on was interpreted by a team of professors of linguistics and it took them nearly a whole year to put together), and a handful of songs were magically born.
Shortly after, Bedlam and Maniac started recording an album and suddenly a bass player appeared. Nobody asked any questions or cared to find out his name so he was simply called …Ugly Dog. Now they nearly had a band and already the record was halfway done. Next a youngster with tiny body structure asked if he could try out as a drummer. Maniac, for no appearant reason, went bezerk, drunk and stoned as he was, and beat the poor bastard black and blue. An act that rendered Maniac some alone time in a cell. Escorted there by a whole bunch of police officers. Upon being released, he found out that the little fellar, now named Big Boned Barabas, had become a permanent member of the band. The gang completed the album with the help from a few friends, and Maniacs mom who let her son live at home long after he had turned 24 (which is probably not healthy, but better than the gutter).
Killer Clan of F.U.N. are pleased with the results from all their hard work and ready to set fire to any stage they can get their asses to fit on. Armed to their teeth with gasoline, booze and with adventurous minds on the rim of self destruction you will all be sorry you didn’t pay more attention in school to the drop-outs and misfits – here they are, to claim sweet revenge on the world!
Keep your eyes and ears open, if these guys enter a stage in your area – be sure to attend, it will be a memory for life.
