Asked in our Witnness special whether he’s come across an odder band than his own happy clappy mob, Polyphonic Spree mainman Tim DeLaughter said, yup, The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players.
We were sceptical until we paid a visit to www.trachtenburg.homstead.com and feasted our ears on the Mom, Pop and 9-year-old daughter combo. Odd? The Trachtenburgs are completely barking!
“Like many bands, the Players started in a garage – a garage sale, actually, in 2000,” explains an Entertainment Weekly clipping. “Looking to spice up their folk gigs, Jason and his wife Tina bought a projector for $5 and a set of slides labeled ‘Mountain Trip To Japan, 1959’ for 25ç. Jason wrote a loopy song to follow the slides and started performing it at the end of his set, with Tina in charge of pictures and daughter Rachel on harmonica.”
Sticking with music and we can’t wait to get our laughing gear round the new range of Rap Snacks that are available in the good old US of A. There are eleven corn-based munchies to choose from including Lil’ Romeo Bar-B-Quin’ with Honey, Master P Platinum BBQ, Mack 10 Red Hot Cheddar and our faves, Warren G Cheezie Nacho. Tastebuds can be tantalised at www.rapsnacks.com
We’ve heard of special interest groups but you have to wonder just how many takers there are for Christian Bowhunters of America.
“This year we have over 60 events scheduled,” says Ministries Coordinator Wally Harder (no, really). “Typical of those are sports shows and archery shoots. On Sunday morning we conduct a worship service for those who are interested. Wherever we go some join us and that bowhunting army of the Lord grows in strength.”
