After a long, cold winter (still is for some of you), the piggies are thawing out and getting, well, horny!  We’re filling in with brass in our current recording sessions… French horn this past weekend and some trombone work at the top o’ next week.  Why, you can see some of me covert cell phone video of the French horn session on our Facebook page!

We’re up for an exciting year!  Enjoy!

“Into Dimension 36D!” was the original album opener meant to “explain” The Boobles, but in the end there’s no need to explain it… Breasts Are Great!

Starring Dr. Demento regulars Chris Mezzolesta of Power Salad (and Kaopectate commercials!), the great Luke Ski, and Dan from the UK’s Flat29, with sci-fi sounds by Jack Dangers of Meat Beat Manifesto fame, used with permission (gracias, Jack) from his “Forbidden Planet Explored/Sci-Fi Sound Effects” discs.  Snazzy!

In the meantime, please ask your friends to check out our audio samples, “Like” us on Facebook, and get yourselves all nice and ready for our follow-up album, which should be completed in 2012!

The Boobles are currently working on their follow up album, “Boobey Road”, and we’ll be checking in for progress updates, so stay tuned!  It’s comedy for a cure!

Cheers!

While you’re feasting on those turkey breasts, remember the breasts that weaned you! Thank you for helping us raise money for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. We’re truly thankful for the work that they do!

Worth has been… NIPPED! Alas, no live show this weekend. You’ll have to wait for the debut of “Maxine’s Killer Mammers”!
HOWEVER, we WILL still be at Rahr & Sons Brewery from 1-3PM this Saturday, Nov. 26th, during their weekly tour/tasting! $7 gets you 3 pints of their award-winning beer and you keep the glass! If you bring another Rahr pint glass from a previous visit, they will donate a portion of the door to US! AWESOME!
We’ll have great raffle items, Black Friday-ish (Pink Saturday?) sales on Boobles merch, and our very own Big Mike will be playing your fave classic rock tunes! Please come out for that and help us raise money for The Breast Cancer Research Foundation!

Jugs n kisses,

In studio news, the Fab Two-Pair have been hard at work again, recording new songs for the follow-up album, “Boobey Road” as well as a planned EP of exclusive tracks aimed at raising funds to press “Boobey Road”.  While all details are not yet finalized, the EP will contain about 4 tracks that will not appear on the next album!  EP tracks as of this writing include: “I Wanna See Your Cans” (I Want To Be Your Man), “Natural Es” (Act Naturally), “Two of Them” (Two of Us) and “Maxine’s Killer Mammers” (Maxwell’s Silver Hammer)!
We’ll keep you abreast of developments as they Come Together!  In the meantime, please pick up a copy of “The Pink Album” available in our Merch store!  Get the “special package” while it lasts for only $15 and help support The Breast Cancer Research Foundation!  Remember, ALL our profits are donated to The BCRF to fund a CURE!
