Gonerfest, like all great things in this world, happened by accident. In 2005 Goner was releasing albums by King Khan & BBQ Show (their first) and King Louie One Man Band and scheduled them to play a friday and saturday night in January. Soon bands - including the Black Lips - wanted onto the shows, and we had 3 days worth of music . Just the bands would have filled the venue, the Buccaneer, which holds maybe 70 people, but people started planning trips from around the world to see the music that we'd lined up and also as an excuse to hang out in Memphis. When I saw a renowned Italian record label head hoofing it down seedy Cleveland Avenue at 10am one morning, I knew something was going on. We had 200 people in the bar, outside the bar, and roaming the streets of Memphis enjoying music, beer, and barbecue for a perfect, if sweaty, first Gonerfest.
