WE DID IT AGAIN!!!

Time is changing for the worst,  
prices going up, jobs hard to find, wheather out of control.
In beautiful Venice, Italy where Rock and Roll music is forbidden (true story)
Guilty Party Boat Cruise put out to sea again this year and it was great!

Thanks to all the band who played, djs who spinned amazing danceable hits,
and to all the people who let their hair down on the dancefloor.

Venice is Guilty! 
See you again soon.

In 2006 the record store reopened in Berlin and finally settled into the Kreuzberg area (summer 2010) where it is now a record store, bar, cafe, and a live music venue.

MAY 19th - SUNDAY
-----------------------------

JONATHAN TOUBIN (New York Night Train/Soul Clap, USA) first time in Italy!
Jonathan Toubin isn't just the most popular 45rpm party DJ in America. The Soul Clap and Dance-Off, Shakin' All Over Under Sideways Down!, the Happening, Land of 1000 Dances, and his wide array of other New York Night Train parties have become the stuff of legend way beyond the Empire City. His visionary take on nightlife and obsessively curated collection of obscure 7-inch records sells out clubs worldwide, appears at major rock concerts and festivals, and influences the birth of scores of 45 DJs and dance parties in his trail. Jonathan Toubin's career stalled after a cab drove into his Portland, OR hotel room and landed on top of him. But he beat death, healed up, and returned to what he does best with a vengeance. The New York Night Train is back on track and better than ever. Sunday's Soul Clap and Dance-Off is his party that draws around 1,000 dancers in nyc and tours the world!

ATOMIC SUPLEX

We did a small interview with Atomic Suplex from London, Crypt Records release nr 100.

Their album 'Bathroom party' is a physical assault of sound that makes slick, overproduced and overhyped rock look at it's shoes in shame. Who cares if they’re hitting the right chord or tuning their instruments correctly, what counts here is the pure, fiery passion and animalistic explosion of feedback and rock ‘n’ roll.


We, at Guilty Party are so proud to have you on board on friday (may 11th) so what's your
impression on this festival on a boat? Are you excited? 

Suplex98: I'm guessing it's going to be a party, it's Venice, so maybe a bit romantic, there may be a little guilt involved afterwards?

Dan: Of course we are excited, parties on a boat are special as everyone is trapped,
noone can go home, we could do whatever we liked and noone would be able to leave. 

Do you like the sea? 

S: I can't swim so no. It's not actually floating on the sea or anything is it? 

D: Yes it is floating on the sea, far from land. If you go over the edge then that's it pretty much. "finito" 

We met Tim Warren two years ago at the boat party, he came down to spinn records,
we are still shocked on how great his set was, the songs and bands he choses are just perfect,
only killer songs, catchy, danceable and punk before punk even esisted...so he definitely has taste in rock and roll music, are you proud to be on Crypt Records? 

S: No, but if we didn't agree to their terms they wouldn't give us our lunch money back.

D: Yes proud of course!!

How did you get in touch with him? 

S: Well I am smart enough to know that if I just called Tim out of the blue he would think I was some kind of weirdo. So I formed a band that I thought he might like and played the waiting game, immediately, five years later he called me. Guilty Party will be the culmination of six years of good stalkin' work, when I finally get to meet him and propose. We will probably disband after that.

D: I didn't know that was the reason for the band... but it's as good a reason as any.


Tell us about you live sets, do you like to play shows? 

S: I hate it. All these people turn up and really make everything really claustrophobic,
and it turns out that if you drink too much it's really difficult to play guitar or remember things.
If you aren't playing live none of that really matters. 

D: I used to think rehearsals were better than shows, but lately I have been happier to play live...
it's something to do in an evening (rehearsals are more of an afternoon thing). Do you know the other bands and djs on the bill? S: I have heard of Tim Warren. Well I have emailed him a couple of times, I didn't know he knew how to play records.

D: looking forward to all of them.

S: Indeed, every single one is my favorite band. You did good work.


Anything special to say? 

S: What? Like retarded?

D: Does anyone have a clue what it is we are all meant to be doing? It is all questions with us.

S: Question everything, it's the only road to answers, otherwise you are just being 'told' stuff,
no matter how true it is.

MISS KITTY B. SHAKE (Paris, FR)
Shocked by the plug of her handy turntable at the age of 4 when she was listening to "Typpy, the lil rabbit hippy", Kitty B. Shake plays tunes at high voltage: primitive rock and roll, tearing rhythm and blues, wild soul, killing garage punk and freakbeat as well as other pieces which couldn't be anything else then a mistake or the masterpiece of a disturbed mind.

3rd EDITION - 2011

We celebrated the power of music.
We danced and had fun with some great Rock and Roll Music.
We, at Guilty Party Foundation, want to give our deepest thanks to all the people who were there and got drunk; to all the bands who played and all musicians who had to travel for hours to come down to the Guilty Boat; to all the djs who spinned their best records; to all the staff who made this possible.
1500 beers, 90 liters of liqueurs, 150 litters of wine have been drunk.
It was fun and we are ready to do it again!
We all have felt our life has been saved or improved by rock and roll music and we have turned to it for support. That’s why, with the biggest smile on our face, we loose money on this. Do you remember when rock and roll used to be fun?
