Journalist Jerry: Have you seen them before?
F&P: Yeah, but not with two drummers, the paper said, thinking of The Dead Milkman at 2023 Cookeville valley punk, grunge and metal festival Muddy Roots, when they actually headlined the 2016 one…
-According to journalist Jerry, there’s a probability that the Mr. Bungle concert, Brooklyn Bowl, 5/14/2024, including local Franklin librarian and Tomahawk guitarist, Duane Denison, as well as the momentum of the recent Avtt/Pttn show at Nashville new venue, The Pinnacle (sans Denison), might be the catalyst for a Tomahawk reunion, 7/18/2026, starting that tour in Nashville, TN, back at The Brooklyn Bowl, 37201 (with Denison). And by the way the Melvins opened up for them, 7/18/26, the opening date of the 2026 Tomahawk tour… he wouldn’t lyin’.
Understanding the worlds in reverse and possibly causing Folk & Proper’s last metal show coverage -not because of the lineup mix-up, but because [the] Melvins are that good, “in the beginning, they played Jimi Hendrix and Who covers,[5] and also began playing fast hardcore punk.[6] Dillard left the band in 1984 and was replaced by local drummer Dale Crover. The band’s rehearsals moved to a back room of Crover’s parents’ house in Aberdeen, Washington. Soon afterward, they started to play songs slower and “heavier” than nearly anyone else at the time. In 1985, C/Z Records was created to document the Washington music scene,” according to Melvins wikipedia page, as Melvins open for Tomahawk kicking off Tomahawk’s 2026 tour at The Brooklyn Bowl, Nashville, TN, 7/18/26
There’s a possibility F&P won’t cover another metal show because there’s no fckn point after the Melvins.
Helping to find another ultimate Alt. Boys Choir notice, unbelievably, Brooklyn Bowl light engineer, [Dena], provided the most appropriate spot to fall in love.
Drawing back from [Dena’s] stand, working calves to the point due to bouncing along until the point of dehydration over the course of twelve [fckn] insanely excellent metalurgists of 1984 showing what the genre is about, lead vocalist and guitart, Buzz Osbourne, bassist, Steve Shane McDonald, and drummer/ introducer of Dave Grohl because he was busy with the Melvins, [fckn] Dale Crover (58) qualified as the most phenomenal drummer Nashville has ever seen, along with Coady Willis, who’s left handed combination with Grover’s right equally insanely mezmerized with stare and gloved tact and execution -usually with a couple of big toms between them to share in the onslaught- created a pocket relentlessly unmatchable by any act seen attempting the slow and heavy, proto-Grunge only rivaled by Randy Rhodes’ mentality putting himself in a bricked-off basement with only his amps and fingers to create what dirge and heavy metal has become, today…
“Melvins has a unique sludgy psychedelic sound that puts the group somewhere between hard rock and metal featured on all its albums since the band’s 1987 debut “Gluey Porch Treatments.” Atlantic Records signed the trio in 1993, the same year the musicians released their fifth record, “Houdini,” which sold over 100,000 copies. The following albums “Stoner Witch” and “Stag” didn’t do as well. Almost all of the group’s releases since 1999 have been released on Ipecac Recordings,” the Desert Sun reports, May 20th, 2022 (At home with Dale Crover: Melvins drummer enjoys living in La Quinta).
This evening, opening-but-headlining our hearts, making famous strategically either using two drummers, or two bassists, Melvins went above and beyond utilizing both aspects, including Tomahawk bassist Trevor Dunn, at the same time as Coady Willis, it was never a better time to be mistaken.
Holy Sht, the look and concentration in his eyes, the discipline of wisdom, commitment, and absolute knowledge of the context took over this opener of openings for Tomahawk’s 2026 tour, which after this discovery, seems things got mixed up when appointing headliners.



Nashville venue, The Brooklyn Bowl, is located down the hill, behind the courthouse, on 3rd Ave. N., 37201.

While Mike Patton does not do interviews, according to Melvins and Patton’s label, Ipecac Records, Tomahawk’s guitarist, Duane Denison, works at the Franklin Public Library, according to Journalist Jerry.
