Big Boys were innovative in many ways and were influential in the direction music and music scenes would take in their wake. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Big_Boys_(band)   (582 words)

KFTH - Big Boys Page PHOTO: GLEN E. The Big Boys were formed in 1978 in Austin, Texas by three skaters: Tim Kerr (guitar), Chris Gates (bass), and Randy "Biscuit" Turner (vocals).

The individual Big Boys all continued to make music in various capacities after breaking up, many of these projects are documented in the liner notes of the posthumous Wreck Collection LP of outtakes and rarities. homepages.nyu.edu /~cch223/usa/bigboys_main.html   (660 words)

Vinyl Mine I believe Big Boys, though, pushed it farther and harder in their later years and are the more important of the two bands.

Rolling Stone review of Music from Big Pink Music from Big Pink is an event and should be treated as one. They'd pop up once in a while behind Ronnie Hawkins or on their own as the Hawks or affectionately called "the Crackers." but it was sort of hip to know who they were outside of Toronto. I hear the Beach Boys, the Coasters, Hank Williams, the Association, the Swan Silvertones as well as obviously Dylan and the Beatles. theband.hiof.no /albums/rs_15_music_from_big_pink.html   (913 words)

Big Boys' singer dead - CIA Music Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) With the Big Boys, Turner subverted the rapidly entrenching dogmas of American hardcore punk in the late 1970s and early '80s with humor, eclectic songwriting and outrageous costumes. The Big Boys can be seen as a direct precursor to funky rock acts such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Fishbone.

MOISTWORKS : AN MP3 BOOMBOX This was the band that your awesome uncle, skater-dating older sister, or local band dude elder hepped you to. The Big Boys were luminous guides from the dark of the early 80s that continue to beacon on into the present. This was the band that ended every show with the shout to "Go start your own band!" And dozens of freaky kids in Texas did so, Biscuit's rasped command creating a (pink car) pyramid scheme that Mary Kay and Ian McKaye would've loved. www.moistworks.com /2005/08/frat-cars-big-boys-skinny-elvis-1980.html   (353 words)

CD Baby: BIG KID: You Must Be Kidding Big Kid is working on a new CD and plays occasional gigs in Los Angeles. Big Kid's You Must Be Kidding has quickly become one of my favorite albums of the year. Blistering with high-octane composition and 85-kabillion horsepower rhythmic drive, Big Kid hasn't forgotten the history of pop and how much you loved the 80s, how much you worship the Beatles and how hard-up you are for some feel-good music that doesn't stoop to the level of radio, cookie-cutter, mindless jingle-jangle. www.cdbaby.com /cd/bigkid   (1175 words)

Tim Kerr/Big Boys interview- Perfect Sound Forever   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) Their rep as the Minutemen's 'sister band' is well earned: both musically and attitude-wise. There was no barrier between the band and the audience (physically and mentally), so a lot of the time, especially during the later years, you couldn't really see the band because so many people were on stage singing with us. The last Big Boys album was on Enigma (Chili Peppers, TSOL), but that was more the local label we were on. www.furious.com /perfect/timkerr.html   (3263 words)

CD Baby: REEL BIG FISH: Our Live Album is Better Than Your Live Album The second important milestone in Reel Big Fish's career came nearly a decade later, in early 2006, when the act learned that they were finally dropped from the label's roster (which had now morphed into Jive Records) after years of begging to be cut loose. Looking back on Reel Big Fish's career, Barrett sees the present as an opportune time to release a live recording of the act, since he feels the band's live performances have improved remarkably throughout the years. Gotta love the Reel Big Fish, this is one of those forgotten about bands that are just amazing, the radio is the man, don't let the man keep you from this great band. www.cdbaby.com /cd/reelbigfish   (4592 words)

Punknews.org | About Reel Big Fish Huntington Beach based Reel Big Fish were one of the more successful bands to emerge in the third-wave ska explosion of 1997. Reel Big Fish found themselves trapped by their record deal as well, as Mojo was sold to Zomba/Jive Records in 2000. Jive, better known for prefabricated boy bands, would prove to be an awkward home for the Mojo acts. www.punknews.org /bands/reelbigfish   (602 words)

Chunklet Magazine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) The Big Boys have been one of the most influential bands to come out of the capital city. The band tied together punk rock and skateboarding in a movement with true soul; a movement that would level heroes and rock stars with the idea of a community existing to simply have a whole lot of fucking fun. Often the Big Boys would resist applause, imploring the crowd to “Go start your own band!” At the encouragement of the band, audiences would take over the stage and mic, shouting out lyrics to their favorite songs. www.chunklet.com /issue_19_kerr.cfm   (1999 words)

Randy Tuner appreciation Randy 'Biscuit' Turner and his band Big Boys, shown here during a 1983 performance in Austin, were instrumental in establishing the city's reputation in the national punk rock scene of the late '70s and early '80s.

Though Minor Threat was a popular band with a national reputation, MacKaye says they were outclassed by the outré Big Boys. www.austin360.com /music/content/music/statesman/2005/08/21turner.html   (1391 words)

When The Big Boys Call The bands that I've recorded in the past are coming back to record again and writing better songs and just sounding better than they did before(I guess that's the idea).
