DEAD
MEN WALKING - A DEAD MAN'S DIARY
Sadly the Dead Men Walking 2005 RIGHT
TO PARTY tour came to an end at the weekend. There have been
many memorable moments along the way as Jim, Mike, Kirk and The
Captain took on the US and the UK in their own inimitable style;
classic rock n roll music, great camaraderie, special
guests and madcap comedy! Another successful operation!
Now here's a chance to relive some of the highlights and go behind
the scenes with Dead Men Walking. Mike Peters was invited by Billboard.com
to write a Dead Men Walking tour diary for the newly redesigned
Billboard web site which went online today. Click the links below
to see the Right To Party tour through Mike's eyes and find out
more about life on the road and the band's recording session in
Liverpool!

UPDATED - DEAD MEN WALKING - RIGHT TO PARTY TOUR
Dead Men Walking made a stand on the
Waterfront last night and the SJP.com camera was on hand to capture
events from the wing (view
photos). Jim, Mike, Kirk and the Captain took to the stage
in their usual high spirits giving the Norwich city crowd no excuse
but to party right alongside them. For anyone who has yet to see
DMW, the set comprises hit songs from each
band members' respective back
catalogue, as well as a few classic covers thrown in for good
measure. Last night The Who's "My Generation" was given
the DMW treatment just before an explosive version of "Rumble
in Brighton". Jim literally smashed it up as he sent
wooden shards flying from his drum sticks, snapped a rod and ripped
through his bass drum skin with the kick pedal! As repairs were
made to the broken drum head Captain Sensible seized the opportunity
to talk about his pre-punk days spent cleaning toilets and performed,
by popular demand(!) his great hit "The Snooker Song"
(theme tune from TV gameshow Big Break)!
There are only 4 dates left on the current tour,
so whether you're a Goth, a Punk, a Mod or a Rocker, get out there
if you can and fight for your right to party with Jim and Dead
Men Walking!

UPDATED - DEAD MEN WALKING - RIGHT TO PARTY TOUR
Last night it was Colchester's turn to
experience the high jinx of the Dead Men Walking. Now over half
way into the tour there are no signs of the guys letting up as they
stormed through another set of anthemic classics, including Eddie
Cochran's "Somethin' Else" (sung by Jim) and an impromptu
version of T-Rex's "Get It On". Slim Jim really pounded
out the tracks, building up to a superb moment during "Runaway
Boys" where he showed off his chops in an extended solo 'face-off'
against guitarist Kirk Brandon as they traded rhythms and licks.

UPDATED - DEAD MEN WALKING - RIGHT TO PARTY TOUR
SJP.com caught up with the RIGHT TO
PARTY tour yesterday as the Dead Men continued their assault on
the UK in Cleethorpes. The guys rocked through the set which included
Stray Cat favourites "Rumble In Brighton", "Runaway
Boys" and "Stray Cat Strut". Captain Sensible has
certainly made his presence felt, ensuring there's never a dull
moment; personified perhaps by the beautiful rendition
of his hit "Happy Talk" - performed by 'popular demand'!!
Other musical highlights of the evening were renditions of classics
"I Fought The Law" and "You Gotta Fight For Your
Right To Party". The crowd was also treated to a guest appearance
by Big Country's BRUCE WATSON. Finally, as if that wasn't
enough, there was a very very special surprise appearance
made by The Damned's Dave Vanian - umm or maybe not, that leopard
print shirt sure looked familiar! (click
here to visit the photo page from last night's show and
all will be revealed).
