Ask The Music Doctor
Peeping Tom's drummer and man-about-town Dr Cam answers your music questions, solves your rock conundrums and guides you safely back into the realm of good taste.
Dear Doctor Cam,
Being a drummer in my band Bowel Mouth, I find that I suffer from a number of side-effects. One is that, after playing a gig, I find my sexual drive unquenchable. Even after a good two-hour session, I am still unsatisfied.
Another side-effect is drummer's sack. A condition where the heat between the legs while playing gets to such a level, that the sack swells and stretches in an attempt to escape the crotch heat-wave and I'm left with a sore set of balls.
Another is an inflation of the ego when playing at all-ages gigs. When doe-eyed youngsters admit to their undying love for you and tell you that you're the best drummer in the world. The inflation of the ego seems to be in direct proportion to the swelling of the balls.
The swelling of the balls seems to be in direct proportion to my sexual drive. Any suggestions doc?
Jimmy Icon,

Being a drummer myself, I can sympathize with your inflated bag condition. However, I believe my ballooning balls have more to do with aging rather than vigorous drumming. My partner affectionately refers to them as my Nick Nolte's (remember his well publicised teste tuck from a few years back?).
How to solve your dillema? Simple. Wack off. Some gentle masturbation after and just before your show, should stem that raging libido.
As for the young doe-eyed sweethearts. Well, I believe the children are our future. Just bear in mind those classic words from the late Marc Hunter, "Are you old enough?"
Hey Doctor,
Can anyone shed some light on the band called Acid King?

Acid King are suicidal satanic doom at it's very best. Led by Lori S. (who I believe played with The Melvins at some stage and is married to Guy Pinhas -- legendary bass player with The Obsessed and Goatsnake) -- their music is of the slow, low rumbling kind with cool chick vocals and plenty of groove.
Their first album, Zoroaster, is okay, but be sure to get Busse Woods -- the perfect soundtrack to a teen suicide ritual.
Also look out for a split CD with Mystic Crewe of Clearlight (top notch instrumental funky rock band) and their latest album, III (haven't heard it yet, but I believe it carries on in the same vein as Busse Woods).
Doctor,
The best bands in Melbourne? Who are they Doc?
Does anyone else have any thoughts?
