Skratch Magazine Live Review 06/18/2005
URL: View Actual Article
When we arrived at the Green Door, The International Playboys (the Montana act) was blasting their boogie-laced version of hard rock. All of the bands on this night were part of a post-SXSW swerve-by. (We here in Oklahoma catch a lot of SXSW fallout this time of year.) The International Playboys play it loud with Paul Stanley kicks and James Brown slides. The band did songs off of their discs, THE INTERNATIONAL PLAYBOYS' FIRST ALBUM and SEXIFUL. My favorite title of the night was "The International Playboys Get a Bottle of Wine, Go to the Beach, and Get Fucked Up". The highlight of their set was a Gladys Knight and the Pips song, "If I Was Your Woman"; and a set-closing version of The Who's "Young Man Blues". The coolest fact about The International Playboys is that they have made a zombie movie (inspired by Guitar Wolf) called GHOULS GONE WILD, which they had for sale on DVD. I'm always impressed with people who get projects done. The International Playboys are a getting the job done.
