New Blondie Album "Panic of Girls"

WildHeart69 · #1 04-12-2010, 04:19 PM

Chris Stein has announced the name of the new album on blondie.net (which was just redesigned, btw!) and there are a slew of new concert dates; some solo, some w/ Cheap Trick, and some with The B-52's!

(there is also a small photo of the strange cover art, but nothing HQ yet...they say they are "working on it"....)

I cover's not still being worked on. As far as we know, it's finished and has been released. It's on the bands website quite a few times.

By artist Chris Berens. I'm completely in love with it!

Let me tell you, they are most excellent live! I saw them in a small club close by & I was right there in front. Deborah Harry rocks.

I only saw them once - it was at the Atlantic City Hilton a couple years back. I got 1st row on the right side of the stage, but the crowd was HORRIBLE and my gf and I were told by security to stay seated... we were pissed!

But DH noticed us and came over to us a bunch of times when we couldnt take it anymore and DID stand. It was a similar situation on the left side of the stage as well; a bunch of fans over there as well... but sans about 12 people the entire audience was a bunch of high rollers who didnt give a sh*t about being there. DH did acknowledge us at the end of the show saying "it was great that some real fans made it out tonight" as she looked at either side of the stage. We DID get a stick from Clem and a pick from Paul and handshakes from DH, so that totally made up for the dud of a venue.

The song "Mother" is about the NYC nightclub that was created by Johnny Dynell and Chi Chi Valenti which birthed Night of 1000 Stevies!

This is the best version I have seen yet. Chris' last update said they were working on getting a HQ version of it...thats what I meant by they were workin on it. they only had a small version of it that you couldnt see the details in.

Now that I see it little closer, I still dont like the cover.... I may be in the minority with this, but whatever.
