Mike Keneally presents
PAUL GREEN SCHOOL OF ROCK MUSIC -- SAN DIEGO
performing Pink Floyd's THE WALL

Mike Keneally is the National Music Director of the Paul Green School of Rock, and the Music Director of the new San Diego branch. Since the beginning of April, MK has been training a group of 7 to 18 year-old musicians of varying experience to play the entire "Wall" album. The three shows below are the public debut of Mike's first School of Rock class. Mike will not be performing but he will present, conduct, cajole and make a nuisance of himself all night. The musicians are fantastic and will rock you ferociously.

Standard & Special Editions of hat. &
Boil That Dust Speck shipping now!

Mike's 1992 debut release, hat., is now available in two flavors.

Mike's classic '90s Immune releases are now safely home at Exowax Recordings, the label co-owned by Mike and his manager Scott Chatfield.

The first two records to be reissued are Mike's amazing 1992 debut, hat., and what has become the Holy Grail of the Keneally canon, 1994's Boil That Dust Speck. Each title has been remastered with its original track order and will be available as a single-disc Standard Edition or Special Edition.

Boil That Dust Speck, the legendary second Keneally album, is also available in Standard and Special Editions.

The Special Editions each contain a remastered CD plus a region-free, album-specific NTSC DVD featuring bonus tracks, rare studio footage, vintage live concert material, interviews with participants, and video from a 2006 reunion of the original core band (Mike Keneally, Doug Lunn and Toss Panos) performing songs from both albums. And of course, the first 3000 copies of each Special Edition will be personally signed and numbered by Mike.

How cool are the hat. and Boil That Dust Speck Special Edition DVDs? Here's some recently unearthed footage of Mike, Doug and Toss recording the basic track of "Weekend" from Boil That Dust Speck at Doubletime studios back in February, 1994. The DVDs include scads of revelatory moments like this one.

hat. Special Edition

Here is some info from the Special Edition packaging for hat.:“This album is the sound of someone who can’t believe he’s finally being allowed to make a real live solo album,” says Mike of his 1992 debut.  “I wanted people to listen to hat. and not believe what they were hearing.”  This brand-new remaster offers the best-sounding version ever of this head-spinning recording, and for the first time presents extended cuts of “Snowcow,” “Lightnin’ Roy,” “Open Up!” and others.

The hat. DVD includes

• Footage from the 1992 recording sessions
• An entire concert from 1993 – the first Mike Keneally show under his own name, featuring the live debut of many hat. classics
• A 2006 reunion session with Keneally, Doug Lunn and Toss Panos playing “Cheddar,” “Here Is Why” and “Here Is What I Dreamed”
• Interview footage with key album participants
• Other odds and ends, mostly odds
• The "hat salad" function, which allows you the choice of experiencing these items in random order, an unpredictable banquet of entertainment chunks much like the original album.
• Also – the DVD has an audio archive with nearly 30 additional tracks, including home demos, alternate mixes and the promo-only “Rosemary Girl” single mix
