Crib Notes

For today’s Roll Call we call out Marlow Sanchez of the Rent Boys and All Night Drug Prowling Wolves.

Who are you?
A Prowling Wolf all night, a Rent Boy on occasion, and by day, a carpenter. Just like Jesus.

Describe yourself in three words.
Chubby. Half-Mexican. Macgyver-esque.

Who — dead or alive — would most you like to meet?
D. Boon of Minutemen fame.

Who would you most like to slap in the face?
Eazy E. He used to be my homey, used to be my ace…

What song do you wish you had written?
“Fairytale of New York” by S. MacGowan, “Road Runner” by J. Richman, any Lifter Puller song.

Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?
Costello. I think Chuck D. said it best.

LP, CD or MP3?
The long player with the mp3 download. Nobody got a damn record player in their car.

If you could start one trend, what would it be?
Remember late 80’s skater kids wearing woven Rasta belts? I’m totally gonna bring that shit back.

If you could end one trend, what would it be?
Everybody in the fucking world being a DJ. Poser kids playing garage rock.

With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?
I would most like to play with my wife, but I will most likely play with Tom Cheshire.

Tom Cheshire, Singer, dancer, wronger, writer.

Describe yourself in three words.
Rad, appropriate & uncalled for.

This Saturday night Atlanta’s long-standing power pop trio the Young Antiques (A.K.A. the ‘Tiques) will head over to Savannah to play a show at The Jinx.

The Rent Boys are going along to give an encore performance of their recent reunion show at The Fringe Binge a few weeks back. So if you didn’t get the chance to see them then, here’s one more go-around, which is will worth the drive to Savannah; and after all there was an almost 8 year gap between Rent Boys’ shows. And despite much prodding these recent reunions aren’t going to lead to a proper reformation of the group, so catch them if you can.

In other Young Antiques news, the group is now taking pre-orders for their forthcoming self-released CD, titled Soundtrack to Tear Us Apart.

The Star Bar turned into an all-out bro-down as the two-day Fringe Binge punk fest. wrapped-up Saturday night. Carbonas, the Rubber City Rebels and the Rent Boys rocked the swarm of scenesters in attendance with drunken aplomb. The Rent Boys hadn’t played in 7 years, and every dude in the house hugged and growled in elation while a man in short shorts stalked the crowd, pouring Tequila straight from the bottle into people’s mouths. A treacherous slick of sweat, spilled drinks and broken glass coated the floor and geysers of beer foam erupted in the audience as beer cans rocketed overhead. The Rent Boys’ welcome reunion was long overdue, and the show was a testament to the timeless qualities of truly fun and debaucherous music.
