KING'S X, GALACTIC COWBOYS Members Create Response Film To 'YouTube Divorce Lady'
April 22, 2008Wally Farkas (GALACTIC COWBOYS, DOUG PINNICK, XENUPHOBE) has just created a video reply to Tricia Walsh-Smith (the YouTube "divorce lady") in the form of a short film titled "Tricia Walsh-Smith: The Broadway Musical".
Tricia Walsh-Smith created an international phenomenon this past week by submitting a "dirty-laundry" video to YouTube documenting her ongoing feud with husband and Broadway mogul Philip Smith, who heads the Shubert Organization in New York.
Wally Farkas states, "I, along with three million others, recently viewed her video on YouTube. While her attempt at publicly humiliating her husband has garnered much attention, I don't think her video elicited much sympathy from many viewers. It was actually quite pathetic."
After enlisting legendary KING'S X guitarist Ty Tabor to handle music engineering and camera duties and Bryan Powers of Hindsight Video for editing, Farkas wrote "Song For Tricia" and created the short film "Tricia Walsh-Smith: The Broadway Musical", which was written, filmed, and edited in one five-hour session. The film can now be viewed below.
Ty Tabor and KING'S X will celebrate their nearly-30-year career with the release of their new album, "XV" due on May 20 via Inside Out Music.
Farkas handled guitar work as well as co-production duties on KING'S X vocalist Doug Pinnick's recently released solo album "Strum Sum Up" (which also features appearances by members of QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, KORN, ARMY OF ANYONE, FAILURE, BIG WRECK, ZERO 1 and cameos by Steve Stevens and actor/comedian Hal Sparks). Wally is currently working on his first solo release, "Past Due", to be released later this year on Molken Music.
