It had to be like this. Ten years under a rock during the Bush years and now we’re back with our first music video ever.

Our first song back in ten years and it winds up being an anarcho punk/summer booty rap anthem.

“2 Live Crew” meets “Crass”. Yeah, you heard us.

Check out this bit of the fun we had in the video posted here!(NOTE: Switch off HD if you, like us, have a slower connection!)

Bobby Joe Ebola and the Children MacNuggits present The Freaky Baby EP coming soon on Silver Sprocket, four new and exclusive songs plus a video  on this “teaser” release to prepare the world for the release of our full-length LP, “F”, available in stores October 12th and from us at shows and online much sooner! We’ll keep ya posted! We had so much fun making this music video and this b-reel shows it. Please repost and spread the word!

Just wanted to remind you to to visit our UPCOMING SHOWS page or our MySpace page cos there is a lot of fun stuff coming across the board! We have lots of local shows celebrating the the release of our new album, “F” on Silver Sprocket, regional tours to Sonoma, Nevada, San Joaquin, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara and other surrounding counties, national tours to the Pacific Northwest, Southern California, Cleveland, Pennsylvania, New York, Boston, and southern states like Tennessee, North Carolina and Florida!!

Speaking of Florida, we are confirmed and could be more excited about playing The Fest 9! Friday, October 29th we will be rocking your asses with our usual acoustic rock mayhem and Saturday, October 30th, we will be joined by Josh, Sean and John for some full-band rock action!! Woo-hoo! We are friggin’ excited as a pig in a puddle of wet diarrhea. Descriptive enough? Again, visit our UPCOMING SHOWS page  or our MySpace page for more info!

Now you know we have a new full length album called “F” coming very soon, but to tide you over we dropped a new b-side recording on KUSF 90.3 last night… a summer booty anthem for radical ladies, “Freaky Baby“! Consider it the lost duet between anarcho-punk band Crass and 2 Live Crew. Listen to the song and many others by us on this two-hour episode of The Jukebox Show on KUSF here: http://www.kusf-archives.com/2010/06/kusf-062010-8-10-pm-radio-jukebox-dj-aj.html

We will release this bratty rap opus, the mastered 24-bit version, in a month or so as an online single on iTunes and other online digital merchants and also have plans to release it as a limited 7″ single with a b-side of our stab at the Depression-era classic, “Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?“.  Also, along with the Bay Area Derailleurs Bike Dance Troupe (who are also featured on the song!) and Bent Lens Productions, we are doing our first music video for our little version of “Whoomp! There it Is” meets “Rebel Girl“. So consider this a casting call;  are you a freaky, powerful lady who breaks rules and builds community? We think that’s pretty dang sexy, and we want to give you a shout out.  Get on your bike, hoist your middle finger high and  and come shake your buttflap with us!

We are still determining exact production dates, but July looks like the month. Write us at contact@bobbyjoeebola.com if you are interested in participating in the filming of  this music video celebration of the uncelebrated sexuality of the freakier kind.

In other exciting Ebola news, we have recently been signed to Silver Sprocket Bicycle Club, an S.F. based record label/”joy-cult”/toy and idea manufacturer! The label is distributed by Independent Label Collective and we couldn’t be happier to find a home aside some old musical homies including the likes of Blatz, Secretions, The Phenomenauts and more! Our new record “F” has a street date of September 14th on three formats: 12″ vinyl LP, compact disc and digital download. It is likely we will have copies in hand prior to this date (not guaranteed) but check back soon for any new info!

Oh yeah! We totally finished recording. Best. Album. Of. All. Time. For. Serious.

We have begun planning many tours across the United States thru the end December of 2010! This will mark the first time we have hit the road since 1999! We are booking semi-local shows in Sonoma, San Joaquin and other surrounding counties as well! We will have copies of our new record in hand, so make sure to come out and grab one!

Here are the places we plan to level with our with our flaming rock and roll… yes, I said flaming:

Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington and Northern California) on August 13th – 16th

Southern California (Los Angeles, San Pedro and San Diego) on August 20th – 23rd

Sacramento on September 18th – 20th

Florida and a bit “The Region” on October 27th – October 30th

New York, Boston and New Jersey (possibly extended to Penn., Ohio and Toronto) on December 17th – 23rd

If you have any ideas, suggestions or leads as to good places for us to play (rock, punk, folk or comedy clubs!), drop us a line at booking@bobbyjoeebola.com!

We have been in Craigums‘ Dutch Oven for the past two weeks having fun and toiling over 17 new songs. We are set to release a full length LP, entitled “F” and a time-capsule/goodie box concept EP, “Meal Deal With The Devil” in the next month and a half or so! We are talking to some labels and will have news soon about where you can find them! Keep your butts glued to this page for info, you do not want to miss this shit!

Really, we are so happy with the way everything is sounding. The songs are the best we’ve ever written and we are being given the best recording treatment we’ve ever had. As our time in the studio reaches the home stretch, we just wanna give some shout-outs to all of our friends who have came into the studio and donated their hard work and talent to make these albums something truly rockin’ and wonderous.

The guilty parties are: Finky Binks, Sean and Josh from M.K.O.T.C., Johnny from Fleshies, Triclops! and Street Eaters,  The Bay Area Derailleurs: San Francisco Bay Area Bike Dance Troupe, comedian Alex Koll, KALX 90.7 DJ and local punk legend Jesse Luscious,  Mick Mucus and Upside Dan of Magi-Kool Doods & Anal Mucus, One Man Banjo, Avi and Eoin from Silver Sprocket Bicycle Club, Skyler Fell of Accordian Apocalypse, Jason Storm of Human Beans and Go Like This, Andy and Zach from A.C.A. and Mike Cooper.

Special love goes out to Melissa Avignon Redford for rides, food, support, excitement, marrying Corbett’s crazy ass AND playing slide whistle and lovely flute on “Waking Up Is Hard To Do“.

Shits and giggles to Craigums for his mastery of the sound board. He is a vigilant producer. Much love and chocolate to you, homeskillet.

Love and poop,

Dan & Corbett

These were taken by Melissa Avignon Redford on May 15th, 2010 at 924 Gilman. So many great bands, so much fun. We were joined by Johnny Mink, Sean McTiernan and Josh Wharton and absolutely rocked the shit outta the place! Thank you to all who came out and sang along! New album nearing completion. Pure awesome.

Man, check out this bunch! In preparation for our upcoming album recording, Dan & Corb have been practicing with Sean and Josh from M.K.O.T.C..

We’ve all know each other for so damn long and we’re having a lot of fun. The songs are sounding amazing! Best group of folks. Best group of songs. So lucky to have them aboard. There are tons more folks joining the practices as we continue. Expect instruments galore and many guests!

The main band for this record are as follows, from left to right in the photo below: Dan Abbott, Corbett Redford, Josh Wharton and Sean McTiernan. Hold onto your asses, Great Big World. It is so gawddamn on.

We are in the middle of a show-storm! Here are a few more fun ones coming your way. Do the right thing, kid. Go, go, go to these shows!!! Click on the thumbnails to see the flyers. Please repost!

Heya! Lately, some “professional” folks have been asking for what “we in the industry“ call “promo” photos. We hadn’t taken any new “poseur” shots in 10 years, so here we are in all our cheesy, weird, wrinkly and grey glory. Thanks to photographer Melissa Avignon for her patience and tolerance. You tell a mean poop joke, Ms. A.

On with the photos! Enjoy… or gag.
