In times of crisis, blog posts become less frequent
Thursday, September 23, 2010 at 04:55PM This is usually the case, but not this time. BIG ROCK IS LAZY.
There- I said it. B.I.G.R.O.C.K.I.S.L.A.Z.Y.
Lucky for you I have some down time at work. Here is some shit that's going on since a long time ago...
#1
We're going to be in a video game! "What game?" you ponder. NFBA2K11. That's code for NATIONAL FUCKING BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION 2011. That's right folks. We're are sharing the same musical credit space as Snoop Dogg, Big Boi, The Russian Futurists and The Alan Parsons Project. Weird, huh? Yeah they're using that song Rocketship that you may or may not know, but probably do. It feels good to be noticed at some level by the media, let's just hope we can make it into something bigger in the future...

... We're also going to be in NHL2k11. Same song. same blah blah. My buddy Rick who flies planes loves hockey so I know at least one person will appreciate it.
#3
PAUL IS GETTING MARRIED IN ... SOME SHORT AMOUNT OF DAYS. Yeah I know two posts down it says the same thing, but I'm trying to bulk up this post. Congratualtions, Paul. We fucking love you.

We are recording a new record. It's going to be quite loud, and with more tracks than the last one. We'll post some previews soon. For now it's going to be called either "Peanut Butter & Jelly Taco Festival" or "Mars is a Bitch." You can take that to the press and shovel it.

I think something cool is going to happen to us around Voodoo Fest time. Wait and see.

That's it for now.
SHUT UP <3
HOLY FUCK ANDREW CUT HIS HAND OFF WTF!?!?
Thursday, May 6, 2010 at 03:19PM Not really- but ask him about it. pictures to come in the near future.
So BRCM was going to do this huge crowd ripping show at Republic NOLA on Friday.
FIRST was going to be us shredding the audience for about an hour.
THEN Bounce hall-of-famers Partners n Crime were going to rip it up as a joint set with us playing bounce and rock music.
THEN THEN We were going to split from the stage while PNC slashed and hacked and gashed and severed everything in sight for the rest of the show.
It was going to be incredible. *sniff*
THEN THEN THEN Andrew was like "Fuck that ima slice my hand off right now with this knife!" This is the shortened version of the story.
And now the good news! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!! THE SHOW WILL GO ON!!!
PNC is still in.
Jermaine Quiz is joining us.
Andrew might air guitar.
Guitarists from all over the local music scene have offered to take a stab at Andrews guitar parts to fill in for a fragmented Big Rock. They divided up the songs, dissected the lines, and will join the rest of us on stage to tear up a truncated set.
This is going to be crazy. There will be former members of Antenna Inn and as well and members of Gamma Ringo, Big History, Empress Hotel, and some jazz cats from around the way. All in tribute to "The greatest guitarist who ever lived who did some dumb shit to his hand last weekend" -Rolling Stone
Join us Friday, or we'll cut you!
BRCM is
Michael Girardot - Keys
Paul Thibodeaux - Drums
Stephen MacDonald - Bass
Hap Pardo - Guitar
TJ Barends - Guitar
Ryan Rogers - Guitar
Blandon Helgason - Guitar
Cliff Hines- Guitar
Andrew Hartsock - Air Guitar
Big History, Empress Hotel, Gamma Ringo, PNC, Slash, Stab, slapchop, slice Big than big news
Wednesday, March 31, 2010 at 12:41PM Remember Paul? I bet you do.
Yeah this one in the fur coat and Mickey Mouse® ears holding the Sun Hotel koozie and some sort of ethnic drum. Ladies and Gentleman, our dear friend and beat master, Paul Thibadeaux, is getting married!
HOLY FUCK!
I the words of Martin Krusche of The Magnetic Ear, "She thought she was going to see Big Rock, but instead she got a big rock!" Seriously.
Congratulations, Paul. We love you. You and Madeline are perfect for each other.
See?
Marriage, Paul, Sun Hotel, The Magnetic Ear SXSW - yeah,bro!
