amNewYork email newsletterThose were the days, my friends, when a teenager could walk into a record label’s office, tell them how much you loved a band , walk out with free promo materials , go back home to your parents’ apartment and start a magazine with that pic on the cover.
Being devoted anglophiles, the trio originally called their British-centric enterprise the “Trans-Oceanic Trouser Press” in a tip of the hat to the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band’s song “Trouser Press” without having any idea what a trouser press actually was. An eventual meeting with the song’s writer, Roger Ruskin Spear, resulted in their edification on the subject with an instructional drawing by Spear as well .
Trouser Press fans and colleagues filled the joint to hear some of Robbins’ favorite musicians, Chris Stamey and Peter Holsapple , Dennis Diken and Dot Dash, a power pop trio from Washington, DC.“The show was brilliant,” Robbins states. “I loved hearing Chris and Peter play and Dennis put together a great set list — full of surprises.”
“It was a great mix of classic dB’s and deep cuts, with some surprises like ‘Picture Sleeve,'” he tells us.Photo by Bob KrasnerPhoto by Bob Krasner
