Black Lips Are Waiting For Your Call

You think you have problems? Just put yourself in Black Lips' shoes.

Not only are the Atlanta, Ga. wild men of rock touring almost non-stop, as usual, but they're overseeing a telephone hotline and solving crises at the same time.

"We got a new phone and don't know what to do with it so we started a hotline," the band wrote recently in their blog. "It's inspired by CB and Hamm radios, because people don't use those anymore, and we think truckers are cool.

"It'll give us something to do in the van. The minutes will probably expire, and i'm not paying for that shit. give us a ring if you are in trouble, need advice, or are just plain lonely.? 949 836 7407."

Need grooming tips for your ironic moustache? How about insights into how to incorporate nudity, puking, peeing, blood and fireworks into your stage show? Want to know how to start a band with Deerhunter's Bradford Cox? Or appear in a movie named after both a Beatles and a Replacements album?

Don't hesitate. The Black Lips know all, and they're waiting for your call now. Here's that number again: 949-836-7407.
