Gunfire 76 – Casualties & Tragedies (2009)

Wednesday 13 had been influenced with glam music of the 70s and 80s such as TRex, Motley Crue and other hair metal band of that time. He thought of starting a new project and drop the horror theme and work with Todd Youth of The Chelsea Smiles and record a new record. He named the project Gunfire 76  and started to record and write songs that had the old school metal feel. He dropped the horror look and went straight to the leather, cropped hair and metal ballads.

Wednesday 13 grabbed Roman Surman for guitar, Jamie Hoover on bass and Jason West on drums.

In August 2009 Wednesday 13 shared on the Myspace page some samples of what Gunfire 76 was going to sound.

Gunfire 76 toured for about 2 months to support the record called Casualties & Tragedies in October 2009 and named the tour First Blood Tour.

Band Members

Wednesday 13 – Vocals and Guitar
Roman Surman – Guitar
Jamie Hoover – Bass
Jason West – Drums

Personal View – This is one of those projects when I heard about it I was on the fence with. To me Wednesday 13 is punky, heavy and sleazy horror fun. I’m a huge Motley Crue fan but this record is not really my full cup of tea. There are some serious catchy fun tracks like Let’s Kill The Hero, Casualties And Tragedies and Rocket To Nowhere but some of other songs are just too much for me to enjoy like Los Angel-less and Get Me Through The Night. Too much bring out the girls songs. But I do understand why he did this as being a guy grown up on the glam metal I get it.

The real hidden gem of this record is Something For The Suffering, this screams old Alice Cooper and fits his image of any project perfect. Sooner have Wednesday 13 keeping rolling with the solo records.

Wednesday 13

Wednesday 13 (197666 – Present)

Born on August 12th in 1976(66) under the name of Joseph Poole in Lexington, North Carolina  Wednesday 13 came to be. Taking the stage name from the daughter of the Addam’s Family and 13 from the address number of The Munsters and using his influences for music, horror movies, pop culture, G.I Joe, He-Man and anything dark and campy the man came to be.

In 1992 Wednesday 13 (he still used his real name at this point) he played guitar in the band Mizery, which later became Psycho Opera and which featured guitarist Abby Normal, drummer Jeff Washam, bassist Michael Patrick, and lead vocalist Todd Cage. Wednesday 13  left the band to form Maniac Spider Trash as lead vocalist, alongside Abby Normal and Michael Patrick joined by Sicko Zero on drums.

Maniac Spider Trash played local bars and the underground scene from 1992 till 1996. At first the band looked like your average high school band but as the music progressed the band started to take on an odd ball look of goth meets cat in the hat. The band recorded an EP called Dumpster Mummies and a full length record called Murder Happy Fairytales until the band disbanded.

(Wednesday 13 during the Maniac Spider Trash era)

In 1995 Wednesday 13 joined as a guitarist to the band Silly Scream. In the Early 90s (around 95) Rayen fronted the punk band named Silly Scream. The band went through a few members and even released a CD but this is when Rayen first met Wednesday 13 as he joined as a guitarist to the band before Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13. This was also around the time Wednesday started to use the stage name Wednesday 13.

In 1996 Wednesday 13 took his image a bit higher when he created his next band called Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13. This band included Maniac Spider Trash’s drummer, Sicko Zero. On bass we introduced a new member named Seaweed. The band dressed up as drag queens in flowing dresses, wigs and crazy ass make-up.  He wrote songs that were surrounded around murder, horror films, pop culture and just damn dark straight satire.

(Wednesday 13 during 1996 with FDQ)

While in the band he went through multiple members changes, even some back and forth and released a large collection of records. The Late, Late, Late Show (1996), Night of the Living Drag Queens (1998), Songs from the Recently Deceased (2000), Viva Las Violence (2001) and a couple of  after collections like 6 Years, 6 Feet Under the Influence (2004) and Little Box of Horrors  (2006). The stage presence of the band was normally dark, weird and a tad creepy. From the early stages of the live sets with chickens, dolls and Halloween decorations playing in small underground venues. The horror punk band would be jumping all over the stage during their presence.

(Wednesday 13 during Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 era of 96 – 2001)

The band officially broke up in 2001 – 2002 when he decided to calls the project quits and joined The Rejects. But he did rejoin the band again 2006 and then called it quits again in 2007.

In 2001 Wednesday 13 got asked to join as a bassist to a  new band called The Rejects. He changed his name at the time to Wednesday 6. Created by guitarists Tripp Eisen and Joey Jordison at the time singer Dizzy  Draztik (who introduced Joey to Wednesday 13 and Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 music).  Dizzy Draztik left the band because of personal issues Wednesday 6 changed his name back to Wednesday 13 and  stepped into the vocals role and was found as the new driving force behind the band. The influence of Joey’s mom helped Wednesday get the slot.

The Rejects changed their name to the Murderdolls at this time. The idea of the name was Joeys but it took Wednesday’s influence to make it happen. The band stayed within the goth image with a touch of old school Motley Crue and they released their first EP in 2002 called Right to Remain Violent which was consistent of three redone old Frankenstein Drag Queen from Planet 13 songs.

wednesday

Not long after the band members got settled did they release their first full length record Beyond the Valley of the Murderdolls (which also was mostly redone Frankenstein Drag Queen from Planet 13 songs with one Maniac Spider Trash song). The record was a big success and the band started to play in big metal shows like Big Day Out and toured the world. After the release of EP single of a remake of Billy Idols White Wedding in 2004 the band called it quits (but did not break up).

(Wednesday 13 during Murderdolls era 2002 – 2004)

2004 Wednesday 13 decided to do another kick at the can with the Frankenstein Drags Queens and released a greatest hits called 6 Years, Feet Under the Influence. He figured with the success of the Murderdolls and getting his name out now was the time to do some limited shows and present some of the old school music. To support the shows he dressed back up in dragged, Abby Normal on bass and Sick Zero on drums.

(Wednesday 13 Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 2004 era)

Somewhere around this time Wednesday 13 and his wife decided to start a clothing line around come cartoon characters known as the Thirteen Dead Kids. A few items did get created and released but the line stopped after touring started to build up a he started to plan a solo career. 

In 2004 Wednesday 13 decided to do some solo shows called Graveyard A Go-Go which he used members of a band called Death Becomes Her for support. This was not to turn out to be anything big but what happened was he liked the idea and created a more dedicated band for support which included past Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 guitarist Ikky and started to tour again under the name Wednesday 13.

(Graveyard A Go-Go with Death Becomes You era 2004)

(Wednesday 13 with wife at the time Roxanne)

In 2005 Wednesday 13 released his first solo record called Transylvania 90210: Songs of Death, Dying, and the Dead. He stayed true to his horror themes and was a cross between Alice Cooper and his old group Murderdolls. He created a new supporting band for the record and the tour including opening for Alice Cooper himself and playing Donington.

Also in 2005 after finishing his first solo tour Wednesday 13 created a second group called Bourbon Crow. Unlike his past projects he joined former Wednesday 13 bassist/former Lunatic Candy Creep  front man Rayen Belchere (Kid Kid) under the alias of Jessie Crow. Wednesday 13 during this project changed his alias to Buck Bourbon and the music for the band was a total step away from the norm for them as it was old country.

(Bourbon Crow , Rayen Belchere (Kid Kid) and Wednesday 13)

In 2006 he released his second solo record called Fang Bang and toured for that record with past Murderdolls member Eric Griffin.

(Wednesday 13 during Skeletons era)

In 2009 Bourbon Crow recorded their second record called Long Way to the Bottom. 

Wednesday 13 decided around this time to start yet another product but pulling away from the horror themes and the backwoods country and more to his influence roots of glam rock. He got together with Todd Youth and created a new group called Gunfire 76. He cut his hair and went more for the 80s rock feel with power anthems and ballads feel. They recorded their first record called Casualties & Tragedies and toured lightly for it.

(Wednesday 13 during the Gunfire ‘ 76 era)

2010 Joey Jordison and Wednesday 13 started talks again about bringing Murderdolls back. They started to write and record a much darker record and with all new material. They also decided not to reunite with any of the past members for this round.

(Wednesday 13 during the return of the Murderdolls era)

At the same time of this Wednesday 13 in 2015 he wrote and recorded his darkest and one of his heaviest records called Monsters of the Universe: Come on Out and Plague.

dsc_9288-missshela-machineshop-wednesday13

This record was well reviewed and it was seen as a possible more mature record compared to his past stuff but it still did have a horror theme too it. He toured heavy to support this record and did a number of branched off shows for this. He started to focus more on the show theatrics much like his idols. He would dress in a robe with black make up and have laser lights on the palms of his hands, he had a voice overlay on the vocals at the show so his voice would echo and this was the first tour with the black goat/devil mask and the backwards man mask.

(Wednesday 13 Monster of the Universe era)

In 2016 he started to record his follow up to Monsters of the Universe called Condolences. He felt the title was fitting as a lot of his rock idols died that year. In 2017 they released the record and started to do rock videos again to support the very dark record. Wednesday 13 felt this was his darkest record to date when it came to lyrics and heaviest when it came to music.

Wednesday 13 started the tour off with a bang with a club show first then headed back to the Download Festival to launch and support the new CD.  The show had pyros and he played some of the new material live. From there they started a tour to support the record through the UK first then into the rest of North America. The theatrics continued as he upped his game with it.
