MUCKY PUP To Play Last-Ever U.S. Show
January 14, 2010New Jersey-bred MUCKY PUP, known for its "schizophrenic combination of juvenile humor, political sarcasm and thick-as-fuck riffs," will play its final U.S. show ever this Saturday, January 16 at The Saint in Asbury Park, New Jersey. There will be some additional European tour dates over the summer but as far as America goes, this will be the last chance to ever see the band play live again. After this, there will be no more reunions or one-off gigs.
Tickets are available via the club's web site.
MUCKY PUP recently posted the first seven minutes of its new DVD, "Live at Mexicali 2009". Watch it below.
The band's lineup on the DVD is as follows:
Chris Milnes - Vocals
John Milnes - Drums
Dan Nastasi - Guitar
Dave Neabore - Bass
Kevin Powers - Keyboards
MUCKY PUP began as an American hardcore band formed in Bergenfield, New Jersey in 1985, when brothers John (drums) and Chris Milnes (vocals) joined up with Dan Nastasi (guitar) and former HADES member Scott LePage (bass). The band went through various incarnations and several musical style changes while gaining minor success in both the USA and Europe. Arguably, their breakthrough moment occurred when Berke Breathed picked their songwriting contest entry for release with a 1987 Bloom County comic strip compilation. However, their European success, based on strong tours and charting for the 1989 "A Boy in a Man's World" album, surpassed all recognition achieved in their home country.
