The Go-Nuts
are yet another one of Deke's many side projects. Known as "The
World’s Greatest Snak-Rock Superhero and Gorilla Entertainment Revue"™, they
have been wowing audiences with their unique brand of "snak-rock"™ since 1995!![]()
The Go-Nuts' live show is legendary. Their audiences are wowed not only
by their dynamic "Snak Rock-ing"™ musical style, but also by their various launch
devices. The "Snak Storm"™ and "Snak Cannon"™ shoot snack
foods such as pie, whipped cream, corn chips, cereal, powdered sugar, and
Choco-diles into the audience.Although this has been widely well-received by Go-Nuts fans, the band's relentless pursuit of its mission has led to the Go-Nuts being banned from most clubs in California. On one memorable occasion at the House of Blues in Hollywood, the soundman engaged in a fistfight with one of the gorillas onstage while the band was playing. The fracas ended with a cream pie in his face. The Go-Nuts now have a 50-foot restraining order placed on them by the House of Blues. So far the Go-Nuts have released several 45 singles and two CDs. Their second full-length album DUNK AND COVER! is available on Lookout Records. The Go-Nuts have been #2 on the Rolling Stone indie charts...they have been optioned for a film production...and they have been courted by the Creative Artists Agency (the largest talent agency in the world) for a Saturday morning cartoon show! Just as the Go-Nuts themselves grow bigger from their copious intake of snacks, so does the Go-Nuts name continue to grow in fortune and reputation. ![]() Live at the Primitive Music and Art Festival, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, June 2006 |
