Thee Merry Widows have played and toured with the likes of Mad Sin, Nekromantix, The Hellbillys, The Guana Batz, and the Phenomenauts. These lovlies had just finished touring when I spent some time chit-chatting with Miss Eva von Slut.
How was your last tour?
Our last tour was amazing, we just got back from our big UK tour with the Priscillas (all-girl garage rockers from London) and it was terrific. As far as I remember. I did just get an email from a guy in Brighton who says I got him in all kinds of trouble with his girlfriend, and I don't remember what happened. Probably for the best though. |

We'd also like a full-USA and Europe tour. We have toured a lot of the West Coast, and we'll be doing a small East Coast tour with select cities this June/July but we'd like to make it to the Midwest, and everywhere in between! Um, we'd like to make it to the mainland of Europe and most definitely to Japan!
Personally, I want to press some vinyl and have some artwork from Pushead. (Pushead, if you are out there, contact us.) I'll really know we made it when we have Thee Merry Widows action figures.

Extra Juicy Tidbits on Miss Eva von Slut! |
Weapon of choice:
That's a hard one as I collect many knives and guns and other weapons. I guess I'd have to say my weapon of choice is my beautiful .357 Ruger revolver.
Tattoos:
I am lucky enough to have gotten tattoos from some of the best in the biz, Jeff Whitehead, Eric Jones, Kahlil Rintye, Henry Lewis, etc.
Tell us something we probably don't know about you:
I'm obsessed with my feet and getting pedicures like clockwork every two weeks.

Any plans?
First and foremost we want to record a full-length album that showcases more of our talents. We have a 4 song EP available in the meantime though (available at interpunk and merchmonster) but we do want to record all of our songs so everyone can check out the many moods of Thee Merry Widows!
