According to the Nashville Pussy board Tracy has indeed left the band and has been replaced by Katie Campbell, formally known as Vampire Girl who played with Famous Monsters, a trio of female monsters who played surf rock. Monsters? Surf rock? Katie played rythmn guitar. More on Famous Monsters…
We will wait and see…but it won’t matter much since as far as I’m concerned…Ruyter is the show. I mean Corey was great because she could breathe fire and had an incredible “eat me” tat across her stomach and Tracy seems so sweet and has really nice nipples…but its hard to take your eyes off of Ruyter. She’s the real deal. But a Vampire Girl might be very interesting indeed.
When Corey left…
* The band claimed to be better off without Corey Parks, the six-foot-three, fire-breathing bassist who suddenly quit last fall. The gimmick has been replaced by musicianship, Suys says happily.
“I was very pro-Corey for a long time, but she bit us pretty hard when she left. We had no intention of kicking her out, but she quit on the eve of a very big tour. We had our whole lives planned out. She quit at a very inopportune moment, but she had been driving everyone so crazy that no one cared. No one was around to defend her. I have the feeling it was rooted in chemicals.”
* Before replacement bassist Tracy Almazon was hired, she worked as a bartender at Nashville Pussy’s favourite after-hours bar in New York.
“We phoned her up the day after Corey quit. We had a European tour to do, this Tattoo the Earth festival. We didn’t know what the hell was going on other than we were booked solid and we needed a bass player. So she said, ‘Well, I know the songs already.’ So we said, ‘fuck, yeah, we’ll meet you in Portland in front of 10,000 screaming teenagers.’ We rehearsed on the bus.” [via Edmonton Sun 5.23.01]
