Oh yeah, and there was a giant, and I mean GIANT, photo of the Evangenitals in the Pasadena Weekly today. So, the Evangenitals were in newspapers, on the radio, and on TV... all within in 24 hours. I dig it. Awesome, I say!
So, I'm feeling rather, as the saying goes, "Thank you Sir, may I have another" about things right now. Except for the cold. I'd like to give this stinky cold back, and keep all the good energy that seems to be surrounding all things Evangenital right now.
In short, it's been a good, long, wonderful day and I'm digging it.

Get ready for way too much cuteness.
Saturday, May 19, 2007
Wish Us Luck! (In Person!) :-)
Tonight (Saturday May 19th) at 11pm the Evangenitals will play at
Molly Malones for the first time.
It will also be the first time that I, Juli Crockett, have performed
an Evangenitals/Evangina show without my harmonic co-Genital Lisa
Dee.
Why, you ask? Well, Lisa Dee is up in San Francisco RIGHT NOW
registering to run in the Bay to Breakers marathon tomorrow morning!
We, the Evangenitals, however are not just a physical band, but a
spiritual one as well... so though an Evangenital may not be with us
in the flesh, they are always with us in spirit.
So, if possible, come on out tonight and help us channel the spirit
of Lisa Dee (and George Bernardo, too, as he's off playing another gig
tonight as well!) at Molly Malones.
Juli could use all the love that can fit in the joint. And so could
Brett, as he'll be singing some songs and chiming in on the Harmony
Express.
This unique lineup consisting of Jason Chesney on Bass, Bryan Landers
on Banjo, Dave "Salad" Salardino on Drums, Brett Lyda on Lead Guitar
and Vocals, and Juli Crockett with Red Hair, Rhythm Guitar, and
Schizophrenic Vocals is not to be missed.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
LOS ANGELES, CA - The Evangenitals, whose witty and highly original alt-country hillbilly rock sound has attracted a loyal following in the So Cal club scene, will join the eclectic lineup of musical performers at the June 3 Lummis Day: The Festival of Northeast L.A.
The band, which played its first gigs at Highland Park's Mr. T's Bowl, will perform on the Sousa-Hiner bandshell at Sycamore Grove Park (4900 N. Figueroa Street) along with top east side ensembles Quetzal, Ollin and the Susie Hansen Latin Band.
The Evangenitals recorded their first indie collection, "We Are The Evangenitals" in 2005. Their sound has been described by Musician Magazine as "..like the Dixie Chicks being beaten with their own guitars at the playful hands of the Violent Femmes."
The band's sophomore CD will be released in the summer of 2007.
The Evangenitals are Juli Crockett, principal songwriter, on kid guitar, lead vocals and kazoo; Lisa Dee on nylon guitar, harmonies and heavy breathing; Brett Lyda on lead guitar, lap steel, Casio and vocals; George Bernardo on drums, shakers, ooohs and ahhhs; and Jason Chesney on bass, guitar and pots and pans. The group is frequently augmented by Brian Landers on pedal steel and electric banjo; Dave "Salad" Salardino on mandolin, ukulele and banjo; and Zoe Moss on accordion.
Admission to all Lummis Day events--at Lummis Home and Sycamore Grove Park--is free. The Festival, a celebration of the city's diverse culture and rich history, will be presented by Occidental College and will begin with an 11:00 am poetry reading at Lummis Home and will continue at 12:30 pm in Sycamore Grove Park, where music, dance performances, puppetry, art exhibitions and food service will continue through 7:00 pm.
A broad cross-section of the city’s cultural traditions will be represented at the community-building event.
Lummis Day takes its name from Charles Fletcher Lummis, who joined the L.A. Times as the paper’s first city editor in 1876. Lummis was also one of the city’s first librarians, founded the Southwest Museum and helped introduce the concept of multi-culturalism to Southern California.
Lummis Day: The Festival of Northeast Los Angeles is presented by Occidental College and sponsored by the Arroyo Seco Neighborhood Council, the Historic Highland Park Neighborhood Council, the Glassell Park Neighborhood Council, the Greater Cypress Park Neighborhood Council, the Eagle Rock Neighborhood Council, the Autry Center for the American West, public radio station KPFK 90.7, Time Warner Cable, the Arroyo Seco Journal and the Boulevard Sentinel with the support of the North Figueroa Association, Los Angeles City Council Districts 1 and 14, SIPA (Search to Involve Pilipino Americans, the Department of Recreation and Parks, the Historical Society of Southern California, Heritage Square Museum, the MTA, the Highland Park Heritage Trust, the Arroyo Arts Collective, the L.A. Poetry Festival, Rock Rose Productons, Orchestrada Audio and other community organizations.

The Evangenitals are playing a show this weekend!!!
Here's the Flier by PtryXXX!!!
I know what you're thinking... we must be CRAZY to play a show the same weekend as Coachella.
Well, if you're anything like me, the idea of a bunch of sweaty people out in the desert listening to a zillion bands (awesome though some may be) in a row is kind of horrific... unless you're one of the bands and/or have some sort of backstage pass, unlimited cold waters, and some "personal space" in your contract.
If, however, the shin dig going down at Coachella this weekend is your earthly version of Paradise, then I hope you have tickets and have a ball. Heck, if you didn't have tickets and I had some, I'd send 'em your way! Seriously, I would.
Now, if you're looking for a much more reasonably-priced music fest INDOORS (with an outdoor patio option) then I would highly suggest coming to the Old Towne Pub in Old Towne Pasadena for the Evangenitals show this Saturday night, April 28th.
We have assembled the Unofficial Highland Park All Stars to take your mind off of all that Coachella madness, and to give it to you big and lovely, right in the eardrums.
The Balloon Bass-driven duo UNPOPABLE will kick off the evenings offerings at 9pm, followed by Cat Hair Ensemble (9:30), the Evangenitals (10:30), and the breakups (11:30).
(Don't let the lower-case letters fool you... the breakups will eat your hearts out with a musical spoon, and then sew it up with sonic rose petals and put it back in your chest with a skip in its beat box)
It's a damn fine evening, and it's just $5.
There are rumors of Evangenitals playing other Evangenitals’ instruments, Brett on the mic, Julio on the Bass, Lisa on a Tambourine, Georgie out of his Mind, NEW SONGS, and some dude from the LA Weekly being there who used to be in the Jim Carrol Band. NO KIDDING!!!
Remember, at the Old Towne Pub, the band you come to see gets to keep ALL the door money your bring, so be sure to give credit to the door man, and you can feel good about the fact that EVERY Evangenitals show at the Old Towne Pub is a bona fide fundraiser.
Just think, if you come to enough Old Towne Pub shows, we'll probably give you a credit on the new album!
So please come, and rock those Coachella/desert envy blues away. We've got you covered.
To Review:
Saturday April 28th
9pm - 12am (Evangenitals at 10:30ish)
Old Towne Pub
66 N Fair Oaks Ave
Pasadena, CA 91103

For those who can't be with us, we would like to offer the following treats and suggestions for some simple things you can do to support your Genitals:
Check out the Evangenitals Radio Interview!
Bring the Evangenitals to your town!

(Please note: I always try to use the "search by location" feature of the invites first and foremost, which unfortunately never works... possibly because I have a Mac, possibly because the "search by location" feature on Myspace blows ass chunks, and possibly because no one I know enters their friggin' zip code or correct city.)
Once that option is exhausted, I have a very simple set of guidelines that I follow when deciding (without knowledge of where in the world anyone is) whom to send invites to. So, if you have received an invite from the Evangenitals, it is likely that you fall into one of these categories:
1. You look lonely. You look like you could use a friend, or perhaps just some sunlight. At a minimum, it appears to me that some time away from the computer would do you good.
2. You look awesome. There is something inherently RAD about your profile picture. You look like a giver; like someone who would contribute to a good time. Or, you may just have incredibly large jugs, which is a good feature to have at shows as well. Come on down.
3. You look like Patrick Swayze. If you are using Patrick Swayze as your profile picture, you are invited. Hell, if you're out there sporting anyone from the Outsiders, at any phase of their careers, YOU ARE GETTING INVITED!
4. You are a drunken mess. We are a band, people, and bands often play in bars. Bar bands need insane, sloppy, excessive drinkers to come to their shows and get good and stinking drunk and spend their rent money on booze to keep bar owners happy and booking good 'ol fashioned bar bands. So, if you have a profile picture that features you drunk out of your mind, passed out with and bunch of bottles, doing a beer bong, smoking a bong, vomiting, or holding a giant pint and/or a YARD of ale, you can bet your poisoned liver that YOU ARE INVITED!
5. Your name is Dave or David. I can't quite explain this one, but as a general rule I invite every goddamn "Dave" and "David" to every goddamn thing we do. It works for me.
6. YOU send ME a crapload of invites. You probably send me millions of bulletins as well, and you're always trying to post GIANT comments with your ENTIRE FUCKING TOUR plotted out on MY page, so I figure, a little e-vite from me shouldn't ruffle your feathers too much.
In the end, let it be known that I painstakingly pick and choose every single profile that I select and add, ONE BY ONE, to our evite list and send out our little plea for SOME sort of RESPONSE to the fact that WE EXIST.
If you don't know, now you know.

Evangina, also know as the Ladies of the Evangenitals, have received two honors this week over on GarageBand.com where the Evangina track "Time To Go" has been hanging tough in Round 2 of the showcase showdown.
For the week of March 19th, Time To Go was voted "Best Lyrics" and "Best Melody" in the Acoustic genre! Woo hoo!
If you pay a visit to the Evangina page at GarageBand.com you can hear this track and support the ladies. You can also look forward to hearing Time To Go on the much-anticipated 2nd album of the Evangenitals coming out this summer, where it will be a sweet Evangina oasis in the midst of the surging seas of Evangenital Joy!
In other news... major props should go out to the ladies for dressing up and putting on the ritz at the Bordello show last Wednesday night.
For all of you who missed it.... thank heavens for YouTube!!!

And just when we thought things couldn't get any cooler, he whipped out a one-sheet teaser comic from the EvangeniTales called "Space Bass: The Rise of Jeff Jones" featuring our beloved old soon-to-be-hitched ping pong master himself, Jeff Jones.
Passersby did note that the Rise of Jeff Jones teaser did bear an uncanny resemblance to some Silver Surfer posters that have been popping up all over town.
Ptryxxx declined to comment on the connection, and instead laugh manically and ordered another Tonic Water with a dash of Lime Zest from the delightfully bosomed bartendress.

Just look at this friggin' swank-ass club we are playing at on Wednesday March 14th!!
This is The Bordello, and it is owned by Tony Gower, former owner of the Derby in Los Feliz. In other words, this is the *new* supreme swank locale in Los Angeles, and were going to christen the stage with Evangenital sweat on Wednesday March 14th at 10pm!
(click for more pics)
The Bordello is lush, sexy, beautiful... a must-see joint. It's also about to become our new home base in LA... so let's have ourselves a housewarming/welcome home Tony party!
The Evangenitals will be playing with the Sundowners and Vermouth, who both sound like swank ass bands, so check 'em out and come on down.
That's a lot of funk for $5.
Click here to RSVP for the show on Myspace!
Come and look pretty for the video cameras. This one is sure to be YouTube GOLD!
*BREAKING NEWS* Evangenital lead singer Miss Julio Crockett was spotted exiting Aardvarks in Hollywood last weekend with a floor length red gown. Witnesses at the scene reported that allegedly she was overheard saying to her "tall male companion" that the dress was for "some show" she is playing in March at "some swank ass joint". More reports coming soon.

Just for the record, I am an Evangenital and always will be.
And so... let me say how weirdly enjoyable it was being in the audience as a civilian Genital. I had wondered for days what would it be like if I could get off work early and catch the show. As it turned out, I managed to catch the full performance and I really enjoyed myself. The running gag in the band, I've been told, is that I'm now referred to as "coach" during rehearsal and that the goal was to make coach proud. Funny thing is, that's not the first time I've been called that (here's hoping it's a term of endearment this time).
The full band (minus me) appeared onstage with part-timers Dave Salardino (mandolin) and Jason Chesney on guitar. Everyone was standing, including Juli and Lisa (w/ guitars) and I must say they all looked great. Juli started up with some jokes and banter about me gettin' fired and opened with the Ween cover "Cold Blows The Wind" followed by "Lisa's Song" and "Never Again". Three interesting choices. My first thought was it seemed overly ambitious given the limits of rehearsal time available to the band pre-show (especially Ween) but I also knew The Girls were eager to revisit a few old chestnuts we hadn't championed in a long awhile. Ultimately, I gave in to the performances, thanks mostly to the fine vocal performances. Next up was, I think, "Quee Queg". This full band version definitely had legs and it was good to hear after all these months (drums!). "Hello" featured some nice guitarwork from Chesney. I missed my own presence most on "Drunk That Way" but when the set segued into "Irene" the band unexpectedly reclaimed what I thought was my own brand of special mountain magick. "Diggin It" was still good times though even sloppier than ever. The second heavyweight moment was "Fuck Em All". The band really finessed that song and I was definitely taking notes. George and Salad get extra points on FEA for the tasty flavors. "Sun Is Shining" (a song that we've always struggled with live) communicated, especially during the verses and managed to muster a healthy dose of applause. Last up was "Gasoline" (surprise!). This song was pretty faithful to the original and still carried plenty of energy. It was the right song to close with.
All in all, it was a good night. The band, of course, still had plenty of charisma and delivered an inspired performance. I had a blast. It was great fun and enlightening to hear the songs shimmy and sway, to hear which licks and ideas stayed and which were either reinterpreted or discarded entirely. In the end, I'm pleased to report that I loved it all and I still missed me very much.

That's right, folks. It's time for another crazy ho-down at the Old Towne Pub with The Purple Gang and The Evangenitals.
There is a rumor going around that we've kicked Brettsky out of the band, but you shouldn't listen to the rumors... even if we are the ones starting them!
The truth is.... HOLLYWOOD is to blame!
Brettsky's earning his stripes in the wild world of cinema editing, and the Evangenitals are going to have to persevere for one night without their beloved Coach and Master Noodler, Brett P Lyda.
So, here's the plan. We put in a call to some Evangenital Extended Family(tm) and we've got special treats for frequent fliers this show.
Jason Chesney (whom you may remember played bass for us at the infamous Knitting Factory/Trainwreck show) is stepping up on guitar (which you will also hear him playing on the forthcoming 2nd ALBUM of the Evangenitals!) and Dave "Salad" Salardino of UkeFink is making a special appearance on the mandolin!
We're bringing some 1st album gems out of the closet for review (think Quee Queg, Eva!) and also some other tunes that we rarely play for one reason or another.
And if you've been suffering from the short-set blues... we're planning a minimum of 10 songs, starting at 10pm. 10 at 10 sounds good to me.
And then the Purple Gang is going to play, putting us in a delicious aural sandwich betwixt Marty West and the Lower Companions and the Purple Gang. Good company!
And you can see it all for just $5. Be sure to tell them that you're there to see the Evangenitals... because we actually get the money at the door when we play the Old Towne Pub, and that money will help make album #2 come out a whole lot sooner!
So come on out and support us. We need all the good vibes we can pack
into the Old Towne Pub so we can put on a good 'ol show that'll make
Coach Brettsky proud!

There are a couple other independent radio shows that we've popped up on, such as Dandelion Radio, KFJC. Heck, over on the Velvet Ropes Forum, we even got named as a highlight on the Dandelion Radio lineup:
Well now, that's an impressive playlist on Dandelion Radio.
I particularly liked Mel Gimpsuits' Sweating Like A Fat Factory Lass from their self released Send More Takeaways LP, and will definitely be trawling the interweb for aural delights from the likes of Masonic Boom and Evangenitals.
And Peter D likes us, too. Hooray!
We've heard rumors and reports of more radio play, and when the new album hits, we have a feeling that folks will be hearing a lot more of the Evangenitals on the Indie radio waves world-wide!
In the meantime, you can always hear us on Myspace, or even better, at a live show where the "full experience" is delivered with glee.

"Okay! I finally went out to a show that is worth talking about.
The band is called the Evangenitals.. The play folk rock.. The two female singers are amazing... Great vocal skills that blend into each other. The band itself was just in tune with each other. Their songs were fun and enjoyable, even if you find "FUCKING A SAILOR" offensive... The show never stopped to make you think "Do I want to leave now".. You start thinking " WOW WHAT IS GOING TO COME NEXT"!
Gasoline... Was great!
Drunken sailor... Was even better...
I can go on with each song, but they played new songs on their upcoming CD that I don't know the names of.
This is what I will love for you all to do, go to my friends list and add them. For one week go and add a song from their profile and enjoy. Just see how they make you feel.
Story:
To end I will like to tell a short story of how great they are from last night...
There was this one drunk woman at the bar, with high heels that kept lighting up as she walked. During the show she was at the bar talking very loud to the bartender.. telling him how much she loved him. She would get up and walk through the crowd to go to the restroom, but bumped into everyone on the way... did I put she was drunk?
During one of the fast pace hard moving songs of the night (*it was our cover of the Velvet Underground's Heroin... in the midst of our infamous "Medley") this drunk woman got off her chair and was walking towards the restroom, which you have to pass by the band's stage. She walked up to one of the two singers and started to grab the mic from her.. The singer, sorry that I forgot your name, was FUCKEN AMAZING! (*that would have been Julio, who is still reeling from her first totally 80's heavy metal fan make-out moment) With out missing a step she held on to the mic, kept singer the song (in its fast pace) and had the drunk woman in Aww... She didn't let the moment fall apart. She, the singer, was there to put on a show and not stop... in which she did. After the song the drunk woman started to hug the singer and kiss her.. (*tongue kiss, people!) After the song the band just smiled and stared a new song. (*the transition back into Bad Company's Feel Like Makin' Love) The drunk woman went to the restroom and back to her chair at the bar. (*her name was Willow, and it was her birthday. I'm pretty sure she will be appearing in an EvangeniTales comic very, very soon.)
If you see any bands this year this is the one that will not want to miss! GO! GO! GO! GO! GO! GO! GO and see EVANGENITALS."
Thank you, Kevin, for that glowing show review. That was an awesome tidbit to wake up to! For more show reviews and music discussion, here's the link again to Kevin's Myspace group: To All The Music Fans.

It was Friday Night at the Old Towne Pub and the Evangenitals decided to see what would happen if one was to put Dion & the Belmonts' Runaround Sue, Bad Company's Feel Like Makin' Love, Velvet Underground's Heroin, and The Beatles' Hey Jude together into one tasty dish.
This video, shot by Patrick Ian Moore, displays the results in a rigorously honest single shot. The real stars of this video are in the crowd. God bless the Old Towne Pub and those who haunt its wooden barstools.

Night Vision pics of the WHOLE band... including Geof Brandin on the bass and Bryan Landers guest starring on the electric banjo... are available for viewing in the Evangenitals Image Gallery!
This picture set was taken by the Rev. P-TryXXX, our resident flier artist and videographer, who you may have seen at the last batch of shows. Heck, he may have even interviewed you!
The video from the last Old Towne Pub show will be coming soon. It's currently in the editing haus (which means Brett, our editor supreme, is tinkering away with it) and I can tell you that it's going to be great. There are so many choice bits and cameos, it's just plain awesome. If you were there, you are in the video... guaranteed. Ptryxxx did a fine job of making sure that EVERYONE was counted, on film. :-)
In the meantime, you can can look at our lovely faces in Night Vision over in the Image Galleries (okay, I'll admit our lovely faces look kinda scary in Night Vision, but man are we ready to star in a musical Vampire flick!) and/or you can head over to YouTube to check out all the Evangenitals videos that are already there, longing for more comments and attention from loving eyes like yours.
Such lovely, lovely eyes you have.
(All the better to come see the first show of 2007 with, my dears)

show of 2006 at the Old Towne Pub in Pasadena.
I would very much like you to be there, if you can. There are many
reasons for this. I will list them, and you can pick whichever you
like, put it in your pocket, and come see the show.
1. This is the last Evangenitals show of '06.
(see explanation above)
2. The last show was so friggin' dope, and this one is gonna be even
better.
Need proof? Watch this video from the last show. If you were AT the
last show (Kent, Leslie, Sharon, Alan, Joseph, Eliot etc) you may find
yourself IN the video!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xdZjSq-ydA
3. This is a fundraiser for our next album.
In January we will be hitting the studio to lay down tracks for all
your new, favorite songs that weren't on the first album. Like Fuck
'em All. So if you have wanted a recording of Fuck 'em All, come to
the show, and we will be able to make you one in January. We need
$600 to pull this off, and all proceed from the show go toward the
new album.
4. Because we love you.
We really do. Always have, always will. Seriously.
5. The "Super-Deluxe Medley of Cover Songs".
I'm not kidding. This medley will blow your mind, and you can only
hear it live, this time, while we've got the Holiday Balls to go
through with it.
6. We (10:15pm) are playing with the Natural Disasters (9:30pm) and
the Purple Gang (11:15pm) which means we have the musical spectrum
covered, from punk rock to blues to hillbilly soul to psychedelic
rock to 50's doo wop. We got it. Come n' get it.
7. There will be press coverage, celebrity photographs, and we need
your sexy faces to come make us look good. Video interviews.
Paparazzi, baby. This is Hollywoodland. Put your face on and be
seen.
If none of these reasons prove sufficient to encourage your presence
at this epic show, (or if you happen to be in another state, which is
a decent excuse) please at a minimum send us your good, supportive
thoughts and prayers.
And please be sure to check out ALL the new Evangenitals videos on
YouTube, and don't forget to leave us some comments!

This is a video capturing an epic occurence that I'd like to share with you. It shows me, Juli Crockett, and my band, The Evangenitals performing at the Old Towne Pub in Pasadena. Caught on this tape is the moment where I, Juli Crockett, first performed an Evangenitals song STANDING UP on stage, rather than safely seated in a chair.
It was disorienting, frightening, and totally awesome. I would very much like to do more of it, as you may note that I could use a little practice.
p.s
I'm not drunk in this video... I'm just gaining my sea legs. ;-)
Please have a look, and leave us a comment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xdZjSq-ydA

This Friday Night at the Old Towne Pub in Pasadena the Evangenitals are playing a show. We are also celebrating drummer George Bernardo's birthday, and shooting some live video footage for posterity.
We are ALSO celebrating the fancy new *tm* that we can now legally put next to the Evangenitals(tm) name, because, frankly, WE OWN THE WORD!!! Hooray!
A Brief History:
Invented by Juli Crockett on a ho-hum day at work in early 2003, the term "Evangenitals"(tm) became the name of a faux band, consisting of buddies and coworkers Juli Crockett, Lisa Dee, and Brett Lyda. Flash forward to an open mic appearance, designed to help Juli cope with her "shyness" and the rest is history. And your part of it. Come witness more history in the making at the Old Towne Pub.

TEAM MEETING STATION DEADLINE
Wednesday, October 4
In order to qualify for a Team Meeting Station at the AIDS Walk you need to have at least 20 walkers registered on your team by this coming Wednesday, October 4 at NOON. A Team Meeting Station is a table with your team name on a sign. Walkers will still be able to register and raise money for your team after this date, but they will not count towards qualifying for the Team Meeting Station. As an extra incentive to recruit walkers by next Wednesday, Chipotle has generously donated the prize for our next registration competition!
WIN 100 FREE CHIPOTLE BURRITOS!
The two teams that register the most walkers between today, Friday, September 29 at 5:00 p.m., and Wednesday, October 4, at NOON, will each win 100 Chipotle Burrito Bucks (good for one free burrito) for their team! Last year during this week, over 4,300 walkers registered on teams, and one team alone registered 159 walkers, so the competition promises to be fierce!
Use the Burrito Bucks to have a team celebration fiesta after the walk or give them out as “Thank You” to your donors.

Lord help us let the show live up to the crazy hype of this WWF-style Monday Night Fights promo commercial that Brettsky whupped up for the show:
Listen to the Madness on the Monday Night Promo, Here.
You can also hear this bizzness on YouTube and comment, rate, pass & share it. It's on the Myspace page too, beautiful people.
Hook it up. Spread the word. We're bringing the love cannon to the Derby. The world needs it, and we need you.
Much Love,
Genital Julius

An eyewitness reported seeing one Julio Crockett of the Evangenitals at Dr Music in Eagle Rock, California last weekend purchasing a fistfull of brightly colored Kazoos and an official Snoopy Mouth Organ.
She was in the company of one Rev. P-TryXXX Demention of the SouperKlawBrazzz who was observed purchasing a purple guitar strap and shaking a plastic banana.
At this time we are unclear on what Juli and the Evangenitals plan to do with all those Kazoos, though there is speculation that all will be revealed at the upcoming BIG LOVE REVOLUTION going down at the Derby on September 11th.
There are rumors of prizes, surprises, and new songs.
More news, coming soon.

It will be interesting, to say the least, to see what kind of reception Sun is Shining will get over there.
In other news...
Join TEAM EVANGENITALS for the AIDS Walk Los Angeles on October 15th! We're forming a team, we're taking donations, we're raising funds and awareness for AIDS research! For us, it makes perfect sense that the Evangenitals should do all we can to protect the Genitals of the world and keep them happy, healthy, and holistically high-functioning!
Come walk with us!

This may seem like commandeering the Evangenitals' blog for strange other purposes, but if you live in Los Angeles and want to have your arty roots shaken like a fruit tree till the ripe sweetness falls off and deodarizes the globe, you'll thank me for telling you about this.
I am Juli Crockett. I am the lead singer of the Evangenitals. However, I am also a writer and director of experimental theater, and I have made an Opera.
http://redcat.org/season/0506/com/now3.php
My friend Jeremy Zuckerman, who also happens to compose for the awesome show Avatar: The Last Airbender on Nickelodeon, composed this piece with me.
Lisa Dee of the Evangenitals is featured in the piece, acting and singing. And Jeff Jones and myself play in the 10 piece musical ensemble which includes violins, a harp, contrabass, pedal steel, and a bulgarian folk singer, among other things. With all those Genitals in the mix, it pretty much merits as Evangenital news, I say!
The piece is called "Orpheus Crawling" and it is my child-like, half-crazed, totally-delightful, slightly-disturbing, philosophically-rooted riff on the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. It is an Opera. I guarantee you have never seen anything like it. I know this because Jeremy and I made it up. From start to finish.
It is playing at the REDCAT Theater in Los Angeles, closing out the NOW Fest (new original works) in that freaking metal Gehry building downtown. It runs from August 3rd-5th. Bring the kids. What doesn't kill them will make them stronger.
You can buy a ticket here: www.redcat.org
It is expected to sell out, so please really do go and buy a ticket.
For directions, more information about the show, ticket, pictures, etc. Go to the REDCAT site, here:

Thank you for supporting the arts in Lost Angeles.

Our hats are off to all and sundry who made it there, and there were a LOT of you, seeing as parking in that Echo Park neigh-bor-hood was a major crap-pants affair.
Check out these fine ladies over on Myspace, and please give them the ADD button tickle. Their's is a worthy cause, and we encourage you to support 'em.
Anyhoo... who ain't got love for the lesbians?

Hope you had a happy, safe, and not too sugar-shocked Halloween!
To bring ourselves down from the fructose high, The Evangenitals are planning on doing it Low-like at the Lava Lounge on Thursday night.
This Thursday night. November 3rd. At Midnight. Jeff Jones will turn on the Space
Bass, Lisa and Juli will lay out the harmonies, Brett will bend some strings, and the Evangenitals will make slow, sweet, sonic love to all those present.
Since we've been getting rockin'er and rowdier at recent shows, we thought it'd be nice to revisit the slowness. So on Thursday come on down and have a seat, have a sigh, and let us massage your heart for a while.
The Lava Lounge is located at:
1533 North La Brea Ave
Los Angeles, CA, 90028
I know that music starts at 9pm. Shaped Like a Gun and LoFi Sugar are playing, among some other fine folks. The Evangenitals take it down at Midnight.
I know that many of you who read this blog live nowhere near Lost Angeles and cannot attend our local shows. Well, here's something to think about:
If you can't be here with us on our home turf, there are many other things you can do to be a part of the Genital movement. For example,
1. You could visit www.cdbaby.com/cd/evangenitals and check out previews of our
album. If you've heard the album, you can review it on the site, even without
purchasing it there!
2. You could download our tunes off iTunes, and then play them loudly at work.
3. You could be our friend on Myspace or Friendster or Tribe.
4. You could share photos with us at evangenitals.buzznet.com
5. You could tell a friend about the Evangenitals. Tell your mom. Tell your local radio station. Tell your aunt, the rich producer.
All of these things would help the Evangenitals get to your town a whole lot sooner, and then we could finally be together. Just you and us.
The long and short of it is that we love you, and thank you for supporting the
Evangenitals in whatever ways you do.
Sincerely,
Juli, Lisa, Brett, Jones, and Salad
The Evangenitals

You heard me right. On Television!
QTV, to be exact. At 9am, this Friday, October 28th. The show is called "Brunch" and we're the musical guests.
I'm not sure exactly how the cookie will crumble, as this has been a fly by the seat of our pants kind of affair, however, I do know that we will be in Halloween attire, playing two full length tunes during the hour and 1/2 program, groove-riding in an out of the commercial breaks (slipping in the leads to some of our dirtier numbers that were not approved for televised performance) and there are rumors of Jeff Jones bustin' out the thong once again, if the FCC will allow it.
Evangenital Brettsky, unfortunately, has to be in school that morning... so it's up to Juli, Lisa, Jones, and Salad to represent the magic of the Evangenitals for this, our first televised appearance. We shall do it, Brett! We shall transmit the joy!
Now, if you've got a request for a song or a shout out, you better send it our way pronto! No four letter words, but "suggestive" is alright, I'm told.
And guess what... it's a LIVE show, so you can even call in while we're there! You can call the show from 9am-10:30am Pacific time / 12pm-1:30pm Eastern. The phone number for the call-ins is 818-848-5008.
Information on how to watch us on Friday can be found here: *Subscription Information*
In other news, we're gearing down for the Lava Lounge show at Midnight on Thursday, November 3rd. Lately our shows have been getting mighty rockin' and rowdy, and we're gonna take it down about 11 notches for one night to revisit some of our mellow golden space bass harmonious low-ness. It's gonna be a late night lounge love fest, to be sure.
Tune in on Friday! Barrage the network with loving emails! See your darling Genitals on Television! Get happy!
Much love,
Juli, Lisa, Brett, Jones, and Salad.

On October 21st The Evangenitals will be playing our first show at Ye Olde Towne Pub, hidden behind the very new shiny Container Store in Old Town Pasadena, California, USA.
We are hitting the stage at 10pm with Don Short filling in on drums and mouth organ, Dave "Salad" Salardino moving up to the front lines on Banjo and Electric Mandolin, and Jeff Jones fresh out of his cast on the Bass Guitar. Juli's playing Brett's Guitar, Brett's playing Electric, Lisa's playing with a pic... all hell is breakin' loose. It's gonna be a bar-appropriate drinking song love fest. A special night to be sure.
The exact address is:
Old Towne Pub
66 N Fair Oaks Ave
Pasadena, CA 91103
The Line-Up is:
Service Group 9:15
The Evangenitals 10:15
The New Fidelity 11:15
Criminal Belly 12:15
All the bands are fantastic. None be missed. This is going to be a great show. Believe it. And it's all for $5. Dope.
In other news, Happy Halloween.
In more other news, there rumors of an upcoming Evangina album (previews available at www.myspace.com/weareevangina) and Brett been working hard rehearsing his own stuff with his "other" band. *gasp* *shock* *awe*
If you aren't local to the Los Angeles area, you can help us out by downloading the Evangenitals on iTunes, buying our album on CDBaby.com and TowerRecords.com, and reviewing our album on either of those sites.
You could also collect local club information for us and help us book a gig in your town... then you'd get to feel the magic of the Genital Evangelizing Music in your very own city!
We love you, always and already.
No kidding.
We thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Juli, Lisa, Brett, Jones, and Salad

The sheer sureness of failure weighs down upon me like the world upon the shoulders of atlas. Dear lord, how to be in all places at all times, in the moment, up to date? Dear lord, teach me thy omnipresent ways.
The evangenitals are in the midst of entering their first songwriting competition. This is indeed the harbinger of more things to come. We're trying to get into the Emergenza festival, not necessarily with any intention of winning, but for the free guitar & bass strings, drum sticks, t-shirts, and a 1st round gig in San Francisco. We're easy like that.
Julio's brother, Jaisen Crockett, photographer extra-ordinare is going to be shooting the cover for an upcoming U2 album next week. Sometime pre-Thanksgiving he's going to be coming to Los Angeles and shooting The Evangenitals. Bono's up for the Nobel Peace Prize, and with a single visit from Jaisen the six degrees of separation betwixt the Evangenitals and the Nobel Peace Prize will be that much smaller!
Stay tuned for the shiny new world.
And in the meantimes...
Check out the Evangenitals Photo Love Share Project on Buzznet. This is where we dump all of our favorite images, and you can join in on the fun by contributing your own Evangenital memorabilia. Get down on it.
Hell yeah.

It's been a long time since the Evangenitals have thrown it down at Mr T's Bowl in Highland Park.
On Friday September 2nd, our absence shall be rectified, souls shall be honored, new songs will fly through the air, and hearts will soar.
The line-up is absolutely top notch, and the Genitals are kicking the night off at 10pm SHARP!
(Be there at 9:30 for jokes, tuning, and a good seat on the rug!)
*Monte Carlo 76 -- nominated best Latin rock band by LA weekly -- will take over at 10:45
*retrodeamon -- a Santa Barbara all-star band -- grabs the torch at 11:30
*Ninja Academy -- celebrating their record release -- gives you your cake and eats it too at 12:15 and *8-bit -- robot rappers extraordinaire -- will make you shake your tired ass at 1am.
Oh yeah, and this show is free.
You hear that? F-R-E-E
And don't forget: Mr T's has happy hour drink prices all night long!
Can I get a HELL yeah?
We hope to see you there.

If you're feeling feisty and even minutely motivated today... how about voting for the Evangenitals to go to Coachella next year? How about passing this on and telling your friends to tell their friends to pass it on a make a difference in the world:
here is the link, it is long and obnoxious so i embedded it under this text
Yes, we know, we'll never win, however, the effort will surely bring greater and broader name recognition, an increase in genital awareness (which is a good thing) and that glorious feeling of fighting for the underdog.
And did we mention the Evangenital Juli is an ordained minister with the god-given power to absolve sin? Hell yeah! And she'd be more than happy to do it for you if you'd help the Genitals get the good word out in the streets, so that we may follow that word, and bring the message to the people at large. To the large people. So dig it.
If you're NOT on Myspace yet, stop fighting and give up. They're taking over.
You can find us there at: www.myspace.com/evangenitals
Evangina is on there too: www.myspace.com/weareevangina
and the animated true tales of the Evangenitals band, EvangeniTales, is on there too: www.myspace.com/evangenitales
And Juli and Lisa and Brett and Brett's music are all on there too...
but not Jeff Jones. Jeff Jones don't own no dang computator. You gotta be kidding.
So, please help. We'd really like to start touring soon. Make enough money to buy a van and do it the Willie Nelson way. Dear people, you could help that happen if you'd just tell a few friends about the Evangenitals. Pay it forward, pass it on, post a link, pebble in a pond, you know the drill.
We love you, even if you don't.
We thank you, even if you won't.
Juli, Lisa, Brett, and Jones

This info comes from one of the music groups I belong to. Even if you're not from Los Angeles originally, add your voice to the cause...or see Los Feliz become the 3rd street promenade! yuck...EASTSIDE RESISTANCE!!!...thanks!
Friends, fellow Los Felizians, members of the media & other cool folks:
I am reaching out to inform you of a horrifying scheme now moving forward to demolish the world-famous Derby nightclub and adjacent Louise's restaurant and replace them with a generic five-story condo / retail development in the heart of wonderful little Los Feliz! With zero publicity and notice to neighborhood residents thus far, Woodland Hills-based Alder Realty Investments Inc. has purchased the property and is quietly navigating the zoning approval process necessary to carry out their dastardly plans.
I doubt I'll have to sell many people on the coolness and historical importance of the Derby in the Hollywood community. Built as the Willard's Chicken Inn restaurant circa 1928 -- with the backing of none other than longtime Los Feliz resident Cecil B. DeMille -- it eventually became one of the five legendary Brown Derbys where Tinseltown's elite gathered between 1940 and 1960. Joan Crawford famously tended bar there in 1945's "Mildred Pierce." And of course Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau memorably entered via the kitchen in 1996's "Swingers" -- helping to trigger a nationwide swing craze with the Derby as its indisputable epicenter. Whether you're into swing dancing or, like me, have enjoyed seeing local music acts play under its distinctive wooden dome in recent years, the Derby's place in the thriving local arts / nightlife community is unassailable. It's the Derby, for cryin' out loud!
This is the unique historical venue the developers feel they must destroy and replace with condos and chain retail space that could be found on any corner in any city in America. And with the Derby would die one more place in the world with a special character and energy all its own. Another piece of L.A. history gone forever. And that could be the beginning of the end for the Los Feliz we know and love, which is already fighting to hang onto its special vibe in the face of encroaching Starbucksization.
The good news: Resistance to the Development From Hell is already forming! Last night, I attended a meeting of the Greater Griffith Park Neighborhood Council Planning/Zoning and Historic Preservation Committee -- an advisory board to the city of L.A. -- and I was encouraged to learn that a group of concerned local residents and Derby fans has begun organizing the Save the Derby Coalition to focus local opposition to this horrible idea. But they're going to need a lot of help to win this David-V.-Goliath battle.
As I understand the situation after the meeting last night, this thing is a freight train moving on well-lubricated rails toward a destination that will turn a fat buck for people who really, really love money. The only thing that will stop it is a loud outcry from the community -- loud enough to get the city council's attention and make them think twice about the cost-benefit ratio. They need to know a lot of people will be fighting mad about this or it's goodbye, Derby.
With that in mind, I urge anyone still reading this e-mail to:
E-MAIL L.A. CITY COUNCILMAN TOM LaBONGE (who represents the Los Feliz area) at: Labonge@council.lacity.org
As I understand it, LaBonge and the council are the crucial pressure point for this deal. While various committees will be weighing in over a long process, the development will ultimately require city approval to go through. If LaBonge and others on the council see the outcry against it as dangerous enough to themselves, the Derby just might be saved. So outcry today and outcry often! (LaBonge's website: http://www.lacity.org/council/cd4/)
Members of the media: You know what to do.
The Save the Derby Coalition website and e-mail list should be operational soon.

HELLO EVERYBODY! How's everyone doing?
Happy first full day of official SUMMERTIME!
The Evangenitals have been on "break" for over a MONTH... We know, it was a scary time for all of us, HOWEVER, we are happy to bring you great news and tidings of joy. Tidal waves of joy!
Along with the sun and the summer, Genital Juli has finally returned to her homeland from the Alps of Switzerland -- chock full of knowledge and knick-knacks -- with some new tunes and a new tan to boot. (Full story on her blog)
IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T HEARD YET...
*Our album WE ARE THE EVANGENITALS is available ONLINE for your purchasing pleasure at CDBABY and TOWER RECORDS!
*If you have already gotten the album, PLEASE add your reviews to BOTH the CDBaby and Tower Records pages. If you don't got no money, you can hear two minutes of every track on the album at CDBaby, and a few full songs over on Myspace! (FYI: Both Evangina and Brettsky have music pages on Myspace as well)
*All the tracks off the album are also becoming available for digital download RIGHT NOW on MP3tunes, Rhapsody, Apple iTunes, Puretracks, MusicMatch, MusicNow, MusicNet, LoudEye, MSN Music, NetMusic, and Sony Connect. Believe it or not, even if you just jump on iTunes and put in search requests for The Evangenitals, it helps us. I don't know how, but it does. I think it's Karma.
*We are in the pre-production/planning/deliberating phases of our first Music Video! That's gonna be crazy. Keep an eye out for upcoming requests for extras.
And...
This is the big one...
Word on the street is that the Genitals are getting back together after Juli's
abandoning the nation, and they're going to be playing a "reunion" show soon. And rumor is that Ukefink is going to come out of "retirement" to join us. That's gonna be one hell of a party.

*The Evangenitals are working on some new music for the sequel of Sean Sullivan's Ben: the angriest canary. More or less, we are hoping to be the Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem for the year 2005 and beyond. And we're hoping that some forward-think producer gives this project the shiny green light and we all go skipping the light fantastic onto ye olde televisor and can touch some lives with the happy mind-control medium.
*Our awesome import limited release Jeff Jones autographed CD "We Are The Evangenitals" has just been mailed off to the fine folks at CD Baby to be added to their online catalog and facilitate intra-web purchasing of this musical masterpiece. We're very excited. Expect linky buttons everywhere, and SOON!
*We're adding a couple more shows before Julio goes to Switzerland to fill her head with rubbish for a month at the PhD school in the Alps. Last time she was there, she came back with "Lisa's Song" and the break-up song "Time to go"... we're looking forward to what seeds some more travel with a small guitar and some mad philosophizing will sprout in her melon patch. Both Evangina and the Evangenitals will throw down some goodbye goodness before May 24th. Look for it.
*Julio's $5 Hippie Love Money Tree campaign has been working out swell. Many thanks and high-fives to all who have saved her from starvation, homelessness, and not getting that all-important plane-ticket to school! Please let the love flow, and any time any of you need a 5-spot, don't hesitate to ask. Activate the money tree, shake that trunk and watch the rain of co-operation trickle down.
*Did you know we had our own health food store? It's true! Check it out: http://evangenitals.wholefoodfarmacy.com/ Julio's sister turned us on to this place. The Personal Care section is our favorite. Julio's sister is quite the mountain hippie. Hell, she lives in a Yurt, she's hiked almost the entire Appalachian trail, and she eats raw foods and grows her own veggies. She is hippie. Hear her rawr.
We love you all.
Spread the good news.
Amen.
