4 unusual facts about The 69 Eyes


The 69 Eyes

In April 2010, during an interview with Sean Twisted of Renegaderadio.net, Rudi Protrudi, frontman & founder of the Fuzztones, reported he had completed work on new song with The 69 Eyes, although further details were unavailable during that time.

In March 2006, The 69 Eyes briefly toured the USA for the first time with Program The Dead & Damone, performing live on Last Call with Carson Daly.

Though not a full length release, but rather a compilation album (much like Hanoi Rocks' Self Destruction Blues), it collected the majority of the bands early material and contributions to other compilations.
