Due to circumstances beyond God’s and Pussy’s control, The Learjets had to cancel their Cambodia shows. The band is profoundly sorry to disappoint their countless Cambodian fans and will reschedule at least some of the shows as soon as circumstances permit. That’s if the two great nations of Thailand and Cambodia manage to hold back from all out war!

Should the fighting along the two kingdoms’ borders continue, Pussy & The Learjets would be happy to set up a stage on a cliff top in the Dongrak Mountains and entertain the troops – on both sides, simultaneously! The Learjets hope that the presence of Pussy might cool frayed tempers and help lead to a ceasefire.

The Learjets suggest:

More Pussy Power – Less Killing!

Photographer Michael LaPalme captured Pussy & The Learjets at their gloriously and sickeningly best at Common Ground in Bangkok for their post-Songkran come-down. A gaggle of New Year survivors showed up, got drunk and danced the Jet Cat Blues.

Alongside Bangkok surf supremos The Klongriders and Thailand punk rock cannibals BTS (Blood Thirst Spider), The Learjets pounded through a coronary-inducing set, including new (and elegantly ripped off) songs Dirty Water, 13 Women, Louie Louie, and the B-side of their forthcoming single, Itchy Skin (Metal Postcard, Hong Kong).

For the performance of this upcoming release, the incredible Pussy shared the stage with too-cool-to-be-true Liberian hip-hop maestro Morris S. Turay.

Due to some very unfortunate circumstances, Pussy & The Learjets’ live debut in Cambodia had to be postponed.

We will keep you posted & let you know the new dates asap.

We are terribly sorry, since we have very much been looking forward to playing Phnom Penh.

A big thank you goes out to the guys from Sharky’s for their support and their understanding.

Pussy & The Learjets versus Metal Postcard in TTO Magazine

In this Rock’n’Roll popcorn double feature, published in the April 2011 issue of Traversing the Orient Magazine, Tom Vater reports on Metal Postcard, the Honk Kong independent label that is home to Cambodia’s finest rock band The Cambodian Space Project and the garage punk noise from Bangkok that is Pussy & The Learjets, while Detroit home boy Scott Nicholson takes the literary plunge with Pussy & The Learjets recording their first single in Bangkok.

Pussy & The Learjets are very pleased to announce their first string of dates in Cambodia. The LJs will be playing several shows in Phnom Penh in late April.

First confirmed dates at the famously infamous Sharky Bar on April 22nd and 23rd. At Sharky Bar, the LJs will be supported by local punk rockers Stiff Little Punks and a Ramones cover band called Rock’n’Roll High School. What more could one hope for.
