My Confessor - House Show Style

"Sneaky" Pete Ohs directed this clandestine performance of "My Confessor" we debuted at a house show at our place back in April. We threw an impromptu "festival" where different artists played in various rooms in and around the house (we used the front porch too!). The culmination: Hi Ho Silver Oh and Daniel Hart doing an omnichord/acoustic performance!

Here's the sweet vid ol' Petey made for us!

West Coast Tour Starts Today!

Come one! Come all! Hi Ho is leaving this afternoon to embark upon our first West Coast tour. Months of planning, evenings of meticulous pie charts, x & y graphs, and corn whiskey have led to this undertaking. We are prepared. We have a minivan.

We don't know anything that is going to happen in the next two weeks, except that we are playing concerts almost every evening. That's a surefire truth.

We'll be sure to keep y'all updated through this blog thing as the days pass!

Fondly,

Everybody

Who's that Clown?

Recognize that clown?



It's Phil! Our sweet Phil is an actor as well as a musician and overall good man. Best Coast got a day most all girls would kill for; Cats, beer, beach, In & Out- all in a clown costume in the likeness of Ronald McDonald.

Way to go buddy, we're proud of you!

Max Is Famous!

Brother Garrett brought sweet Max the Cat into our world last year. Look at him now! All grown up, all dressed up.

Scarface School Play

We at Hi Ho Silver Oh think kids say the darndest things. Especially when they re-enact hyper violent 80's era gangster films in a "kid friendly" way.

PIZZA!

CAN'T. STOP.

Kojak

This is like a lesser version of Shatner's spoken word tunes from the 70's. Yet, I am enthralled . . .

Hard Ticket to Hawaii

Tonight, after YEARS of waiting, Hard Ticket to Hawaii arrived from Netflix. There's little to explain about this movie, except that the writer/director originally worked on the "Wide World of Sports" and invented "the honey shot" (google that one and you'll get a foreshadowing of what this film includes). This film is one of twelve from the "Triple B" Collection--the three b's being "bullets, bombs and babes."

Needless to say, based on the clip below, you'll come to learn our night was made complete by the watching of this flick. Oh, and on top of the fact that there's a razorblade frisbee, there's also a mutant snake.



"You've got a great ass."

"You too, pilgrim."

RENT IT.

Integratron Desert Fun

Yesterday Jon, Wil, Casey and I embarked on a road trip to the Palm Springs region of California, in preparation for a late night slot at Pioneertown's Pappy & Harriet's. It was wild time, getting a sound bath at George Van Tassel's Integratron with reverberating quartz crystal therapy in an acoustically perfect dome, exploring Noah Purifoy's outdoor art installation made entirely of wreckage items, and finding the dopest (and cheapest) thrift store in a random nook of the region.

As we filtered through the dusty racks, the elderly cashiers complimented our tastes in purchasing a jacket with a "Golden Creme" insignia, and an undersized gray sweatshirt with kittens on it. Hell, they even gave us Valentine's lollipops reserved for "handsome looking gentleman" which we politely obliged and ate. Thanks ladies.

Asking them why there was 70's rock music pulsing through the adjacent walls, they casually remarked that Narcotics Anonymous was having a Valentine's dance, which--upon viewing the crowd outside--it became clear they were more interested in hackey sack than cutting a rug on the Rec Center floor. "Oh, but come back soon," the old women remarked, counting our change repeatedly. "We're having a bake sale in a week. The ol' IRS really is making sure we count our dollars now!"









Oh, and Pappy and H's has some awesome folks working there. Killer sound system, and a super warm crowd environment. Plus, there's a bowling alley next door built by Roy Rogers. Saturday was a total win.
