Experince BILLY TV! Check out
a whole bunch of live vieos for free. Just for example, here is
a video of one of my favorite Flaming Lips song, "My
Cosmic Autumn Rebellion".
We played it at the "In
Dog's Country"
CD Release party back in January. With me are Scott Rockwood (of
Madahoochi) on guitar, Dan Ingenthron (of SeePeoples) on bass,
Joe Winze (of Madahoochi) on drums.
Many requests have come for In Dog's Country lyrics.
At last, now you can read
all the lyrics online! Thanks for your patience.

CD Release Party
The all-star gathering at Saint Louis's Off BRoadway music club
was a smashing success! Members of Madahoochi and Celia were singing
songs from the new album, and other Billy tunes as well. Then
we topped it off with The Bohemian Rhapsody Orchestra lowing everyone's
minds with their Queen covers. Thanks to everyone for making it
an awesome night.

about, check them out. It's a song-by-song mutlimedia extravaganza!
