Hi Friends! Great news! My Star Wars Parody band, the Death Star Repairmen has been given a great writeup in the comedic Star Wars blog Rebel Alert! Great timing too, since we have just released a new CD. Here's part of the writeup:
Rock The Rebellion! Welcome to the rebellion. Are you ready to ROCK? Death Star Repairmen has been immortalized in rock and roll history! Rockabilly fan band Death Star Repairmen has released a CD of Star Wars inspired, rhythmic rock and roll to showcase their brief but storied history... Capt. Zorikh is a one-man entertainment empire with a documentary about a grand battle staged by his chapter of the Society for Creative Anachronism, his own series of mini-comics, several music CD's based on his comic strip Ironfowl, a solo CD and most importantly, The Death Star Repairmen's debut album "A Night In Mos Eisley"! Best of all (and proving what a honourable Jedi the good Captain is), Zorikh acknowledges the band took its name from Darryl Gold's fan opus and has posted a huge thank you and link to the DSR website on his own site! And even better, the good Zorikh's mama raised him right. He e-mailed Commander Gold for permission to use the name. We foolishly thought the band was a one-off! Congrats on building a following and this summer's convention tour, guy. Shazam! He's also a Captain Marvel scholar. And I wasted time in university on psychology and theatre history for non-majors. Rebel Alert salutes you Captain. Welcome to the rebellion! END TRANSMISSION This was written by the folks responsible for the original Death Star Repairmen short film, so getting their approval means a lot to me. You can see the rest of the post at http://rebelalert.blogspot.com/2008/07/rock-rebellion.html And about that new CD, it contains all the songs of the out-of-print A Night in Mos Eisley plus two new, original songs with Eli Maniscalco on bass and Jeff Webb on drums. You can hear select songs on the MySpace home page, and see more details, including how to order it by PayPal at http://www.captainzorikh.com/wts/deathstar.html Captain Zorikh [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.captainzorikh.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
