The Prostitutes Corner » WD-40

Summer videos, enough for starting our very own The Prostitutes TV.

There are some videos captured by Smity’s camera at Rock For People, 4th July, Cool Stage. For an early afternoon, we enjoyed the gig extremely well. Less enthusiastic were our drums and guitars technicians.

Loads of pictures from this year’s festival are on Facebook. Maybe one day we will put them all on our flickr account, but for now, depend on that asocial network.

What does Wédéčko, a familiar name for our WD-40 robot co-synth-player, when he is not on stage with The Prostitutes? Well, see for yourself in a video from Rock For People and in a video showing Wédéčko persecuting people in Prague’s Metro, but in the end singing loud & proud.

We played last week at the official closing ceremony of International Film Festival Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad). There is one lo-fi video of Space Oddity live captured by Jack from Carlsbad. Enjoy!

And I found one curious video of The Fakes remix of our song Leave Like It Is made probably by a fan in UK. The picture selected can be a cover image for this remix with no doubts. Good taste!

And, there is one more video, Leave It Like It Is from United Islands of Prague:

News for Retro. 14.5. Prague

destroyer — Fri, 08 May 2009 16:27:38 +0000

It’s less than a week and we are already tuning for the Retro party “Spanish bombs”. Surprise-demanding? Got one. Šmity is busy with his sound job so it’s someone else’s call of duty. Dušan Neuwerth, the producer of Hometown Zombies album, is the man and it’s going to be his first public appearance with The Prostitutes and the first live performance after the ones with Umakart. Of course, you won’t miss Wédéčko, the robot is going to be there too.
