VAMPIRE CON '09: CRY, LITTLE SISTER--come to your TRUE BLOOD!

Fangoria reports that Cry Little Sister will be used in True Blood this season
( I think it will be one tonight !)

Before the New Beverly Cinema screening of THE LOST BOYS last night, G Tom Mac introduced a new video for his brand new version of "Cry, Little Sister", the haunting LOST BOYS' anthem.

Now the song is being used, appropriately enough, for the HBO series TRUE BLOOD -- in the video, he performs the song as we see clips of Bill, Sookie and the rest of the gang. What's interesting--and may be blasphemous for some Goths--is that it's a country version of the song!
"I wanted to do a version of 'Cry, Little Sister' that had a swampy, bluesy Robert Johnson feel, so it would fit in the Southern Gothic world of TRUE BLOOD," G Tom Mac explains. "They wanted to use the song and I think it fits."

Check out a preview of the song in the widget below (it's the first track under the "songs" tab), and look for the TRUE BLOOD version of this classic on iTunes within the coming days!

Since Gary Calmar was the VampireCon DJ - I bet they have the inside scoop !

It's best to watch the video on Fangoria.com - it's a little wonky
