Since
its inception in 1980, Three Day Stubble has been rubbing and wiggling
its way around the Southwest, up the West Coast, all the way over to Florida
and even as far as the prestigious Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland.
The group has played with a diverse range of acts such as Beck, the Boredoms,
Thinking Fellers Union Local 282, Faith No More, Jad Fair, and Sun City
Girls.
Befuddled attempts to label
the band bring comparisons to Frank Zappa, Pere Ubu, and Captain Beefheart,
but they somehow fall short of the carnival of sights, smells and sounds
that is Three Day Stubble. Brut cologne, pyroflatulance, dijiridoos, trombone,
platform shoes, trumpet, drool, bizarre keyboards, and teeny tiny drumkit
swirl in a thick stew of guitars peppered with Donald's inimitable vocal
stylings.
Three Day Stubble shows the
glory and horror of white American culture turned inward upon itself,
and the incestual expulsive ramifications of our democratic free society.
Three Day Stubble's hobby is showing the struggle of backward egos from
a relatively tame society, that would rather turn away from looking at
their problems and delude themselves while acting out the eccentric behavior
brought about by such ignorance. Stubble exposes this "bubble life," never
acknowledged by society, through music, dancing, and other entertainment.
These guys are making way to allow and encourage the acceptance of individual
expression and creativity, no matter how secret or personal.
