I had to throw this out there for my Bro. and to you all. He is new member of T-Nation. He is still very much a lurker but possibly this will get him to come out a bit more. He has just begun to adopt some of the passion for Iron and such that we share, but has a passion for Music that runs long and deep. He lets it all out when they are on stage.

For a bunch of Pansy’s from Kansas these guys do an OK job. LOL I had to throw that ion there, I cant talk them up the whole time, and they are kinda girly at time, OH there I go again!!!

Just thought that a few of the T-Nation members just might be interested in seeing a HARD CORE show and I have to pimp my Bro’s band on their first tour. Hey and if you come to the D.C. show you could even have the horrid experience of meeting me. :slight_smile: Now isn’t that special. Hey the plan is to even drag mom out. She needs a good release of energy!!!

More shameless promotion= A few Reviews

Metal Faction
November 2004
by Evilash
Band: Iron Guts Kelly
Out of: Kansas City
Sounds like: old school hardcore

Midwest Music
October 2004
By Nick Spacek

[quote]Their album is hardcore from start to finish. And, mind you, this is old-school hardcore, not the hardcore that the Warped Tour set might be familiar with.

A punk album that sounds raw, but not rough; clean, but not overproduced; and doesn’t sound like it’s one song reworked nine times over? I think we have a winner in the category of “making something familiar refreshingly new again.” [/quote]

So if your interested in some old school HARD CORE, lets try and give these Guys a T-Nation welcome into the above Cities.

Now see if I can drum my bro up to come on here, do a little self promoting LOL. Maybe answer any questions you all have or what not. If any.

Thx for checking out the post and hope to see you at a show and or here about the T-Nation presence at all the cities from the fellows in the Band.

Maybe we can turn each show into some type of HARDCORE T-faction meeting. Everyone all SPIKED!!! up and ready to release some agression. Post on here and lets get a good showing / T-meeting at these shows.

I’ll keep postin new shows and such as they arise as well, and just throwing in more promotion as the dates get a bit closer. You have damn near two months so plan it now!!!

Ltr,
Phill

Here is the Banner for the DC show I will be going to. Who knows may try and make the NYC show as well. It’s just down the road ya know. Not sure if I can handle being round these guys two night in a row though. LOL Brotherly love. :slight_smile:

Oh and to carry on the shameless promotion and to keep on the artistic track that we have going here. My bro. is also a Tattoo artist. Anyone in the Kansas City, Topeka, Lawrence, area who wants a TAT give me a PM and I will get you in touch with him. I am sure he will give you a hell of a deal and he has the latest and greatest tat gun. He aint to shabby of an ARTIST either if I do say so myself.

Ltr for now,
Phill

Damn sorry I just had to add this.

For the DC show at least. Lets notm just make this a big ole sausage fest. Sure I’d like to meet dome of the fellwo T-Men but hey, as of late I dont get out near enough. It’d be nice to have a good showing of some T-Vixens here as well. :slight_smile: I know i’m asking a lot. Dont make me beg. I know there are some hardcore T-vixens out there.

Hope to see ya all there
Later,
Phill

Hey!!!

Shameless promotion slid straight into name calling and libal slanderous trash talking at times there brother!

Nice!

Like the days of old with NYHC and the United Front we are bringing it back and up in your face with the help of our friends OUTBREAK! we are going to lay waste to numerous pubs in the midwest and along the eastern seaboard!

Thanks Phill and T-Nation!

Gotta get back under the bar and make ready to release the dogs of war!

“Iron Guts Kelly”

Even the name matches this site!

I checked out your music on your site and love it. Wish I lived on the East coast so I could check out your shows…and meet your your brother Phill. He’s a legend around here, you know.

Best of luck on your tour, Boj!

6

Thank you Lexie!

I’m glad to hear you liked the site and music!

As for meeting Phill… I dont find it hard to believe he has become very well known around here. He is a truly genuine and outstanding person in my book! When ever I need an answer based solely on fact or someone to talk to who wont pull punches he is the man! He sees things how they are, tells it like it is, and has the strength, motivation and mentality to back up what he says!

I kinda like him too:P

Hey thanks u2. I blushin here. Even moreso from the pic of me in a towel. How old is that damn thing couple years??? I am white, and while not huge now I was quite a bit smaller then. Lol.

See you do the opposite talk all nice and slide in revelaing pics of me you snake. LOL. I may have to dig up some of you now.

Thanks again u2 and hope the tour turns out GREAT. Hopefully we will get some T-peeps to show up and raise a ruckus.

Ltr,
Phill

Oh yes! That is how it is!

You had to expect me to strike back with somethin’… probably not expecting a 3 year old picture of yourself all wet and sexy!

I ordered my Spike for the tour and I am going out all Spiked up! Grrr!

Unlucky1 aka Boj

Well thanks, I wont subject them to any revealing photos of you. They can check out your guy site for that.

I had an Great idea. Maybe if we can get some T-Peeps to show up in each city you could like offer a deal or something. Have them trade some servings of Spike and/or Grow! for CD’s and Schwag. Gotta keep the poor starting musicians up and well fed. LOL

What ya think. some kind of T-deal??

Ltr,
Phill

I can do that! Hell the first ten T-nuts that come out I will personally buy them a copy of the 2003 release and throw in the 2002 demo!

I am gonna try to run a bunch of the new American Eagle logo punk rock patches and if anyone comes out wearing a T-nation shirt I’ll give you one of those 'till they run out!

We just played a show last night with the Street Dogs from Boston Mass. and thats got me really pumped for the tour!

I was Spiked for the first time on stage… I gotta say the intensity level was high!

Mike McColgan (singer, Street Dogs/Dropkick Murphys- “Do or Die” LP)came down from the green room when we started and stood on the stage grinnin’ for the whole set!
He came up after and said, “that was an amazing set! Nice cover (FEAR) choice too! Glad I got to see you guys, we had the night off the Social Distortion tour and just had to come play your town… I can’t set still.”

Then I watched those guys throw down and we loaded out together and hit the road. What a good night! The Street Dogs CDs have absolutely nothing on seeing them live! Those silly mics kick arse!

So yeah! Come out and get an earfull of anger and represent T-Nation I will hook you up 'till i run out of swag to give out!

OK 15 days from the send off to my Bro’s first tour so I thought it was high time to bump this up and begin bugging the hell out of everyone. :slight_smile:

I would like to hear some great stories off all the T-Peeps that show up, and hopefully meet a few of you all myself at the show in DC.

So step up, show up, get the free schawg my bro has offered to T-Nation members, and well just have a damn good time.

Thanks, and I’ll keep bugging the hell out of you all over the next few weeks.

Phill

I live a half-hour from Lawrence, so if my boy isn’t born yet, I’ll sneak over to that show.

Good luck!

I live on the west coast but I’m a big Hardcore fan, so I’ll check their music out, if it’s available out here.

Phil,
I’ll be in D.C. during the time (end of spring break), and we should for sure meet up.

Jackzepplin, sound great man and congrats on the child. Gotta ask, where are you from. I was born and raised in Topeka, just moved to DC for Grad. Studies. Hope you can make the show. The one in Lawrence should be a good one. They get great crowds there and it will be the send off show.

Shugs, ?Well I?ll be damned that sweet, thanks. Glad you enjoy it and don?t break to much Shtuff… Thanks!!!

Tadpole. Not sure if either of their CD?s are available out west yet in stores but I do know you can listen a bit and get one ordered online at their site.

Hoosierdaddy, hell yes. I got the shaft in being that are spring break is early ( next week) so I will have classes, so I wont be LOADED with all the free time I would like but will be making more than enough. Give me a PM and I am sure we can figure a meet up out. At least at the show. I will also be dragging mom, or well her draggin me. I just have to take her to see her other son on his first tour. Hopefully we can get a few more ppl to show as well.

Anyway all thanks for the replies and support. I am going to try and get up some copies of the fliers they have for each show as they come up and keep bugging you all. We cab turn this into some type of traveling T-Meeting.

Ltr,
Phill

OK, Tour kicks off in less than a week all. Time to really bug the hell out of you and try to get you all to make yourself visible and hear some great tunes.

Hope to hear of some Freaky ass T-Peeps making them selves known at all the shows and meeting a few at the DC show.

Bye for now,

Phill
