Kyle from Fuck is a part-owner of the Hemlock Tavern here in SF. Fuck is playing there, I think it's next week.

There's a a new band w/guys from Fuck called Staff. Continuing in the tradition of Google-resistant band names.

(Basically a Doug Yule solo project, with Ian Paice helping out on drums, and Yule apparently just happened to temporarily still have the legal rights to release it under the name "The Velvet Underground"... I never even heard of this thing's existence until just yesterday... WTF)

If I'm not mistaken, they did it on purpose. I'm sure I read that somewhere semi-recently.

Sadly, I am listening to Desperate Housewhores on the television. I have no control of the idiot box in this house.

check out "holy fuck"

I heard it once a little while back. it failed to register, but I remember the actual recording sounding good. I could be totally off, though.

Let me think about that question some more and try and respond with some more informed opinion a bit later... it's obviously not good if you're expecting/anticipating Reed/Morrison/Tucker (+/- Cale) era V.U. music...

But what if it had just been released as a Doug Yule solo album... then is it any good? (i.e. does the music stand on its own, regardless of name/label?) - That is the question that I must ponder, although my initial gut-level reaction so far has just been "meh.")

(It's definitely a rock-n-roll curiosity, such as 'Other Voices' or 'Full Circle' by The Doors (minus Jim Morrison), although in The Doors examples, they still had 3/4th of the band, but history still does not reflect kindly on those records, and very few fan discographys begrudgingly acknowledge their existence.)
