Album Notes

Randy, Phil and Chris all play music in the bay area. We all should have known that Hello Donkey would come to exist. But really, who could have predicted the whole ice skating thing?

--

This release includes two separate groups of songs. The first is called Ice Kastles in the Sand: we don't even know what that means. The second is a live rendition of Blades of Steel: an intimate journey. Blades is a rock-u-mentory of the Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan ice skating saga of 1993/94. Ice Kastles is an interpretation of a 1970's B-movie of a similar name. We've never seen the movie.

Also in this release is a comic book that gives the album it's name, A Day in the Life of Hello Donkey. It chronicles a typical day for us.

REVIEWS

When I grow up, I want to be in Hello Donkey…
author: mike o
Long time ago, Shakespeare might have tackled the Nancy Kerrigan -Tonya Harding figure-skating battle of the early 90’s, but now it’s the 21st century and we’ve got Hello Donkey, thank God…With grace, style, and a great sense of humour – all things Tonya might have benefitted from – Hello Donkey tell a powerful story with this album with some serious power riffs. Definitely tabloid fun, but some surprising poignancy in there too. Great album (nice comic book too!) – somebody bring this to Broadway!
