This was filmed by a camera crew for a broadcast TV show in Japan. I think for the Perfec TV cable network.

Vodka rocks!

Vodka Collins members Monsieur and Alan did a show in New York at BB King's last year. It was televised as both a 60 minute and a longer 90 minute show.

Fabulous!!!

[vivicola]

Heavy topic, this song.

[jivingjunkosan]

Vodka Collins might do one last tour this summer 2008. This is the rumor in Japanese music magazines recently.

[bbsteviebb]

Seen him live. I know him to play a Les Paul, a custom Explorer by DiMarzio, and a Tokai flying V.

[behindyoualltheway]

Don't forget his Fender Les Paul Telecaster! Only 28 made!

[fabnekko]

I love the Vodka Collins!

[Primalonna]

Monsieur always looks so happy playing with this band!

[houndsofhell]

Alan Merrill with a Fender Strat! That's a rare site. He's a Gibson Les Paul guy all the way as a rule.

[kingofthemountains]

This song is on Pink Soup by Vodka Collins, which is a very very strange album.

[mistersick13]

This is so good. They were such a strange and interesting band. I hear Monsieur and Alan just did a show together in New York last week at BB Kings!

And it is, as you say, a good view of this bad world.

Get out of Iraq now.

[Primalonna]

Great song! Rock n roll!

[kylesinglefile]

Has Mr M been listening to Lou Reed's "Berlin"?

[SkylarBry]

This is dark. I agree.

[doggydogworld]

Sounds good loose and rocks like early Velvet Underground. Hua hua!

[sooziwoozi]

A "bit dark and cynical ?" Ya think? LOL

[doggydogworld]

Lyrically this could be taken as a cynical and cold viewpoint, but the sad fact is that it's a very accurate depiction of that world.
