:: OKTOBERFEST UPDATE!

My fellow Jugends,

Here is an update on the Turbojugend Oktoberfest.

The date has been moved up to Sunday, October 19.

It will be held at Alpine Village, 833 W. Torrance Blvd. Torrance California. Ph # (310) 327-4384

Directions:

From LA, take the I-110 south to the Torrance Blvd Offramp, just South of the I-405. From the South, take the I-405 North to the I-110 South, and exit at Torrance Blvd. From North of LA, take the I-405 South to the I-110 South, and exit at Torrance Blvd.

Sunday is the best day because it is Family Day, and opens at 12:00. That means it won't be as crowded as Friday and Saturday night, we can get in there earlier, and probably get tables reserved.

I am working on reservations right now, so I need to see how many are planning on attending. So far we have Orange County, Silverlake, and San Marcos Jugends planning on showing up. Talk to your people and see who wants to go, and get me a head count.

I am also working on getting us all in for free. Again, I need to know numbers so I can get enough free passes. You can also go to www.alpinevillage.net and print out your own free passes.

So lets show some Jugend spirit and get out there and spread the Dunkelheit.

:: INTER-JUGEND OKTOBERFEST!

Attention all California Jugends,

After attending the insane Turbonegro show last weekend at the Henry Fonda Theatre in LA, I realized how many different Jugends were out there in the Southland area.

In an attempt to unify our unwashed masses, I would like to call an INTER-JUGEND OKTOBERFEST October 25 at the Torrance Oktoberfest. My SWAT Minister pointed out that it was the best Oktoberfest he had ever attended, with a real German Oompah Band, and plenty of room. (Unlike my local HB Oktoberfest, which gets so damn crowded is becomes a hassle.) It is also centrally located for the LA area.

Feel free to contact me at this address: marcoalmera@hotmail.com Dates are up in the air, maybe someone has a better idea of a better place. But for now this can work.

I know my friends and Jugend brethren in St. Pauli Hamburg have close to 50 members; their parties are out of hand and the site of so many TJ jackets can bring a tear to the eye.

So, join us in drunken celebration, in the spirit of Turbonegro and Alt Deutschland, and rally up your troops and come on out. I will be working on confirming the dates, directions, all that shit. This might be the first of many good Inter-Jugend Festivities, such as Turbojugend Superbowl Sunday, Sloshball Tournaments, and my favorite, the Turbojugend James Jones Tainted Purple Kool-Aid Party.

So contact me, my brethren, and lets unify and take over the world.

El Gordo, Uberlord of Orange County

:: TURBO SETS PHOENIX ABLAZE!

Sweating, pushing, screaming, chanting...Turbonegro at the Mason Jar in Phoenix Arizona. One of Turbo's finest shows combining top speed energy along with personal shout outs and local fan-made cowboy hats.

Euroboy's performance was phenomenal as he wailed away at the guitar while being carried away in the sea of Phoenix Jugend.

Pål Pot was also in high form with his awesome keyboard riffs and ever-eccentric Turbo style.

Chris Summers was sighted at Kats (the local bar next store) playing pool and looking Ultra Denim before the show. Later that night he would proceed to kick more life into the drums than any other show I've been privileged to see!

Rune Rebellion also made the crowd roar as he pleased the audience with his mean rhythmic style and dominating demeanor.

Then there was Happy Tom. After battling an episode of food poisoning the night before, Tom didn't miss a hitch with his powerful bass lines and dazzling display of stage presence.

Lastly, the one and only Hank Von Helvete would take the stage with darkness and determination...and a cane that twirled remarkably close to hundreds of unsuspecting Sailor heads. His clever side-comments and memorable dedication will never be forgotten...nor will the Denim Demons.

Although the feathers were absent, the blood was plenty adding to the highest energy level in recent rock history that is still a buzz in the 'valley of the sun'...Phoenix, Arizona.

:: BALTIMORE BONANZA!

Finally back home after a mind blowing east coast turbo experience: Baltimore and New York City!

Baltimore - 09/13/03

The boys virtually explode upon hittin' the stage and blasting through an unstoppable stratum of deathpunk delights. Turbojugend Baltimore were clearly represented as were TJ Washington, TJ Orange County, TJ Phoenix and TJ Philadelphia. Great show!

A sailors nod goes out to the guys running sound at the Otto Bar. Both professional and deliberate they made quick work out of the shift from opener to headliner. The results: a wall of blistering distorted guitars complimented by a demonic rhythm section that rumbled the club with trombonian bass and the fattest pounding drum sound to date. Very nice snare sound indeed! Hank's vocals intelligible and for the most part unscathed by relentless touring that one might've come to expect. The Euroboy's fretted frenzy could've been more apparent, but hey...

A full review of the nights events will be up shortly.

New York - 09/14/03

The following night brought more of the same turbo talent only this time to the Big Apple, New York City! Tom's been quoted as saying "it was one of the top 5 shows ever!"

The international Turbojugend Community showed up in force for the event and subsequent after party. Most, if not all, jugends from the previous night were seen with the cities own Turbojugend New York and jetsetting Turbojugend Trondheim.

Norway's Dagbladet had this to say:

Yes, its true... Once again the mighty Turbonegro are touring North America and introducing the continent to 'Scandinavian Leather' the live experience. The denim dudes are doing 22 dates here in the United States and Canada starting tonight in Washington, DC at The Black Cat. On August 21st they received the prestigious 'Spirit of Indepence' award given by Kerrang! Magazine. The awards ceremony was a Turbonegro celebration with Metallica's James Hetfield rooting for the band like there was no tomorrow and Good Charlotte dedicating one of the awards they received to the Norwegian Alpha Motherfuckers. Happy Tom's acceptance speech was: 'I'd like to thank God above and the God below', he grins. 'And finger-fucking'.

:: TURBOJUGEND DALLAS, TEXAS STYLE!

I am starting a Dallas Jugend. I'm hitting the streets this weekend with hand bills with all known info on turbo dates in Texas. I am also going to be recruiting hard core turbo fans.

People can contact Mikey Gilbert aka Crown Prince NAMBLA at mikeyrocksme@hotmail.com for membership forms (which I will also have on me or you can fill one out via e-mail) and meeting info and rules.

Thank you,
Mikey AKA Crown Prince NAMBLA
