THE GONERS

FROM THE GUTTERS AND GARAGES OF GONERVILLE USA!

About Me


Like all things from Gonerville, the reunion has come and gone and may or may not stay gone forever. Huge thanks to everyone who came out to see the shows and ever huger thanks to everyone who helped us make this thing happen with as suprisingly few injuries as were reported.

With the last nails in the band’s coffin, the Goners return to whence they came, that mysterious and dangerous land of Gonerville USA. Who knows what adventures await our heroes there? Glory? Parades? Search Warrants? Angry Mobs? Debt Collectors? Bravely, the Goners will face the unknown so we puny mortals don’t have to. Surely, they are the unsung champions civilization needs to function whatsoever. BEWARE: rumors persist of a Goners tribute band publicly appearing in the future under the name "the Goners." These pseudo-"Goners" have changed their names and are undergoing plastic surgery to be as close to the originals as possible (only older, fatter and lazier, an impressive feat on its own). These imposters are in no way authorized by the Goners or the Gonerville Department of Propoganda. However, we do suggest that you support the false-"Goners" with the same carnal vigor and disorderly drunkedness which you did for the actual Goners. Gonerville USA is putting together a massive lawsuit to sue them into the motherfucking stone age, and they’re gonna need the money. Thanks again from all of Gonerville USA. You guys are great and will be missed terribly. Please toast a Cult 45 to the Goners’ memory and think of them when you make sweet love to your signifigant other.
