What's In A Name: Sons of Warren Oates

Posted by on Wed, Feb 8, 2012 at 2:49 PM

Dear Sons of Warren Oates: You're a local band that I've never seen, except for this video from Magma Fest 2011. Now I'm not a really a folk rocker, but I think your acoustic sets are excellent! I realize you're made up of members of the Maldives and the Moondoggies, so you know what-the-F you're doing. One thing I ask though, is PLEASE do right by the real Warren Oates (RIP)? He's one of my favorite actors of all time—making three, count 'em three, of my very favorite films. (ONE, TWO, THREE). Anyway, don't do anything the real Warren wouldn't do (and maybe Neumos should have a drink special in his honor at your next show?) —LOVE, Kelly O

"The Warren Oats," circa 1974's Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia:

Sons of Warren Oates, with Kevin Murphy (of the Moondoggies), and Davidson Hart Kingsbery, @ Neumos, 2/22, 8 pm, $8, 21+
