Dear Mulletifornians:

Tomorrow is my birthday, but no, no, no, that's not why I mulletext to you tonight.

This coming Saturday the 23rd I'll be in metro Los Angeles performing in a beautiful home with comfy seating, snacks and no rock club sticky beer floor (but that could probably be arranged.) I'm happy to announce that the show will be well attended and also happy to announce that there are a few seats remaining. If you'd like to jump on the last few places available, please email Jay Gilbert at jaygilbert@me.com.

I intend to play a bunch of new songs: "Jesus, The Beatles and Martin Luther King", "Sleeping With A Friend", "Rollercoaster", "You, You, You", "Beautiful", "A Feeling That Won't Go Away", "Turn The Soil" and more if I can swing it.

I will also do my best to resurrect the Best Songs of P. Hux That Haven't Appeared on a Previous Live Solo Album, some oddball covers, some ELO interpretations and last but not least, songs with Special Guests.

Hope to see you there.

In the meantime, enjoy some random selections from the P. Hux Photo Phile:

The DADS, Chapel Hill, NC. It was the 80's and we needed a band photo. Left to Right: Matt Barrett, guitar and vocals. These days Matt is sole author and proprietor of Greecetravel.com. In Shower: Dr. Scott Swarzwelder, drums and vocals. Scott is a tenured professor at Duke University. Guy in Bathrobe: P. Hux. At least I was courteous enough not to go shirtless. On toilet: Zoe Lagergren, bass and vocals. Occupation uncertain.

Live in Tallinn, Estonia with The Orchestra. Gordon Townsend on drums. If we ever go Whites Stripes on y'all it'll look like this.

I love this shot, taken when roadies were real men. "He's rammin' the stack again, mates! HOLD ON!"

The P. Hux tour de force Purgatory Falls is now available in a deluxe edition with a bonus track remix of "I Loved Everything" and an expanded 16-page jewel case booklet.  Included are all the lyrics, never before seen photos and detailed notes about each song from this 2001 classic album. The new Purgatory Falls cd is still at the old reasonable price of 13.99 and all copies ordered from parthenonhuxley.com are signed by P. Hux.  Shipping is immediate.  Please order Purgatory Falls here:

The Business Part of the Mullet

What can P. Hux do for you?

P. Hux House Concert--There’s no better way to experience a P. Hux concert than in your own house! Hear tons of songs and stories and get the inside scoop on P. Hux’s experiences in music...without leaving the comfort of your couch. Requirements are simple and straightforward. Contact: huxmail@aol.com Subject Line: House Concert.

Guitar lessons--I've started teaching guitar to Maryland/DC kids and adults. My budding rock stars seem to be getting a lot out of it and it's really fun for me, too. It's been a long time since I've broken down my technique and I think I'm learning just as much as my students. If you live in the area and want to learn how to play, contact me at huxmail@aol.com Subject Line: Guitar Lessons.
