This is something of a reprisal of our amazing show last October with Peelander and Math, with the added bonus of LIMA! October’s show melted no less than 8 billion faces, 32,000 legs, and an over-sized candle. Now in BROOKLYN, all ages, and with our other AMAZING FRIENDS OF LOVE LIMA and new friends ESKALATORS, this will rock. A seriously very must see show. This show means business.

For the first time in our five years as a band, Uncle Monsterface will perform our full set with our NEW LIVE DRUMMER. And we’re premiering it in our home town. Introducing Spooky Old Eric aka The Batman on the sticks, girls and boys. Take a poke for a nickel.

Full deets:
January 21, 2010 – 8pm
The Church
Cover $10, $7
21+ (sorrrrrrry team, we tried!)
Adv tix: www.fnicerecords.com/tickets

F-nice productions presents
Uncle Monsterface (WORLD PREMIERE OF NEW LIVE DRUMMER!)
with
Math the Band
The Silver City
Business for Pleasure
We are told that the show starts at 8sharp, as muzak must stop by midnight. We are also told that we are on 3rd, before those spazzy math-starz.

Because Facebook is sorta dumb in a lot of ways, there are two event pages, one set up by F-nice, the other by Math. Maybe we should do one, too?! Kooky Facebook. Anyways, make sure you tell it everything that you are doing in triplicate, or you will lose your life-license.

We are playing The Coney Island Museum!
Which is, to us, evidence that we have finally “made it”.
We’ve been rocking pretty hard this summer, and this is the last show before we take a few weeks off, and it’ll be even more special than our normal degree of relative “special-ocity”.

Sunday, August 23
Uncle Monsterface Goes to Coney Island!
with an Exciting QUESTION AND ANSWER session to follow
(this is part of the museum’s “Ask the Experts” Series)
ALL AGES!!!! $5
4pm – EARLY SHOW which will be punctual – we are the ONLY band!
The Coney Island Museum
1208 Surf Ave, Brooklyn
Take the D, Q N or F train to Stillwell Avenue (last stop).
Tell FACEBOOK that you are coming! It needs to know!

We’re experts!
(But not vampire-finding experts. We need a vampire for this show. Anyone wanna be a vampire? Free cd!)

As this show marks the passing of the below-mentioned “Sweat Sexxxy” from the live show, we just might usher in a new stage antic. And it just remind some of you of an old one. Some sort of contest, maybe?

Team team hello!
First and firstly – once again, there is an exciting show this weekend, but we want to make sure that you know that we will be playing right at 7pm, and that we are the only band. We realize this is not standard rock n roll procedures.

And: the exceptionally cool people of wired.com’s GeekDad talked to two of us weirdos from Uncle Monsterface hyping said show! www.wired.com/geekdad/tag/uncle-monsterface. Listen to the whole podcast to hear the wisdom of Paradise Dan and Martyface.
Neat!

Don’t stop there, always read Z from Geekdad’s blog, hipsterplease.com due to its vast awesomeness and its penchant for awesomosity. Why would spellcheck underline that?!

We also want to make sure that you know that we are premiering A BRAND NEW T-SHIRT (for sale) at this rock show, too! By the invincible and mighty and mightily awesome Erc Swanson of The Atomist, featuring Eric’s take on two of the rarer sock puppets – Dr. Alien Eyes M.D, outer space doctor from space, and The Earclops, noteworthy crossword puzzle expert.

And let us not forget the details of that which we are hyping!

Hello Citizens of Sock Puppet Interest (both general and specific),

Two sock puppet-related events are hurtling towards Manhattan in a sleigh driven by burly, forsaken, and untimely elves…
FIRSTLY:
Did you miss the display of Marty’s newest Sock Puppet Portraits at Brooklyn’s Sputnik? Do you need to see it more? The show is moving to Manhattan! (cue “Movin’ on Up”).

The Tank
354 W 45th St
New York, NY 10036
tanknyc.org

Opening Reception: May 14 at 6:30pm

Come for the Opening reception and stick around for the Tank’s amazing Puppet Series, Puppet Playhouse (or just hang out and have some beers, you don’t have to go to Puppet Playhouse). If you do go to Puppet Playhouse, you should know that Marty doesn’t have any work in it. But you should also know that it’s awesome – puppeteers interpreting modern musicians, this month featuring the Magnetic Fields.

THIS show at the Tank foreshadows ANOTHER SHOW AT THE TANK…
A SOCK PUPPET (and human) ROCK SHOW!
Uncle Monsterface PREMIERES the theatrical debut of their song
MASHED POTATO vs VAMPIRE!
at THE TANK
June 6, 2009 at 7pm!
