DEAD SCHEMBECHLERS BRING THE HATE

Lou Brutus once again took on the persona of Michigan Wolverine loathing, Ohio State Buckeyes loving rock star Bo Biafra, front man for the notorious Dead Schembechlers.

The group headlined their somewhat annual Hate Michigan Rally at Skully’s Music Diner on High Street in Columbus, OH on Friday November 26th, the night before the rivalry game between the two schools. A sellout crowd of 600+ insane Buckeyes turned out.

Check out these recent articles on the the group in the Detroit Free Press, Columbus Dispatch, Associated Press, The Other Paper, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Cincinatti Enquirer, Pat Forde of ESPN, Columbus Alive and a new one in the Detroit Free Press. See the band’s Bomb Ann Arbor Now video here.

LB is also continuing writing the unauthorized autobiography of the band, Dead Schembechlers: The Rise, Fall & Redemption of the Best Damn Punk Band in the Land. It will delve into Bo Biafra’s life, the history of the group and the true story of The International Wolverine Conspiracy. It will be filled with sex, drugs, rock n roll, violence, insanity and pigskin.

For more on Dead Schembechlers hit their official website, Facebook or Bo Biafra’s Twitter page.

Also, in case you missed Bo/Brutus and the band in HBO’s film “The Rivalry: Michigan versus Ohio State,” be sure to pick up a copy now on DVD.

The hardDrive Live Tour 2010 wrapped up in Orlando, Florida at the House Of Blues and Lou was there with the bands celebrating it as the Brutus Birthday Bash. Frank of Anew Revolution was celebrating his birthday too as were the United States Marine Corps so many were the libations poured for the Marines in the crowd. It was a perfect close to the tour so many thanks to Sevendust, 10 Years, Anew Revolution, Since October and Aranda for making it all happen.

Brutus got shots in the photo pit of each of the bands that night. You can find in the Music section of the Rogues Gallery here on the site.
