Place an order with Double Crown including at least $20 worth of Double Crown or Continental goods and get 2 free stickers (our new Surfites logo sticker and a fab Madeira logo sticker). You can order non-Double Crown stuff too, but to get the stickers you have to have at least $20 worth of Double Crown 7"s, CD's, DVD's or Continental magazines (issues 10 - 15 are available). They'll be included with all orders received now through June 30th.

But wait, there's more!!! I've got a whole bunch of extra CD compilations from Continental magazine 10. Place and order and mention the following special
"STICKER / CONTINENTAL CD 10 PROMO" and I'll throw in the CD comp as well (not the magazine, just the CD).

Now's a great time to order our new Bonney & Buzz and Madeira CD's, the new Continental magazine or the Penetrators new DVD.

You can order via Paypal - just send an e-mail to: records@dblcrown.com with a list of what you want and we'll send you a Paypal invoice back with the total (don't forget to mention the "STICKER / CONTINENTAL CD 10 PROMO" deal in your e-mail!).

The Toga Kings, were named "Louie Of The Week" this week by The Louie Report (the official Louie Louie website), for our version of "Louie Louie" recorded at our September 2006 reunion show. Here's what they had to say:

"Last week, I announced a new feature called the "LOUIE of the Week" award. We had the Cafe Blues Band, a fun band from Russia, take the first honors for what should be a regular feature. This week, we'll acknowledge the Toga Kings, a fun band from Bellingham, Washington.

You can hear their version of LOUIE LOUIE by visiting their MySpace page. Even though their official webpage is on the Double Crown Records page, even though there's no plans for any actual recordings. Your best bet is find out where they're playing, and experience them live!"

The Kilaueas arrived in the US yesterday and are enjoying themselves in San Diego with some good 'ole BBQ and some time on the beach. The tour officially starts this Thursday with an appearance on Clint Beachwood's radio show in the afternoon and a show at The Tiki that night. I will try to post daily reports about their tour, show reviews, setlists, etc. here and on the Double Crown blog page at http://doublecrown.blogspot.com
