Lookout redwood trees!  RJX is gearing up to shred some axe at the first annual Baconwood Festival, someplace in the mystical wilderness of Mendocino.

Backstory:

The Ron Jeremy Explosion kicked off their heroic 4-year rocket ride through San Francisco and northern California as a straight-up rock-n-roll band in 2000. By the time they meteored back to earth in 2004 they’d grown increasingly prone to fits of pocket funk, groove electronica, knob-tweaking psychedelia, and the occasional detour into dissonant children’s music or an 80’s TV anthem. Upon impact, they wandered around dazed for a while, hopscotched a couple members across the country and back, then finally decided to dust off the chops for a reunion show in 2006.

A dozen “reunion” shows later the RJX is still officially not a band, but retains the right to blast the roof off an unsuspecting northern California club, ski resort, festival or foot-race without warning at any time.

Retrobloggin’ rock-n-roll

As the Hollywood studios enter their 5th year of battling for our prized audience mic/pocketcam content, we figured there’s no sense letting these classic pix, ads, and clips collect dust. Relive the good times in the same authentically amateur, low-fidelity, vintage resolution & sampling rate you remember back when RJX was just another garage band.
