The stage there could be a bit bigger, but then again so could the actual venue. Consequently the singer/guitarist kept bumping into the bass player. Eventually the bassist pusshed the guitarist away, which resulted in him being kicked. The bassist then hit the guitarist with his instrument and was punched for his trouble. The bassist then threw his instrument to the floor and left the stage, walked through the audience and left the room. End of show. I have a sneaking suspicion that it may have all been choreographed but the audience seemed to enjoy it all anyway. - PJ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Feb 1999 08:16:27 -0500 From: "Germani, Greg" Subject: Texas soul On Thu, 18 Feb 1999 12:52:38 EST, ARei160287@aol.com wrote: >As far as Garage Soul, how about "We Sell Soul" by the Spades?

Psychodrama. Don't know where they were from, but they played Richmond, VA, a couple times in the mid-80s. Very weird art-punk performance group. First time I saw them was at an art gallery where they made Devo-esque noise music while one of the guys rolled around on the floor in a pile of chicken guts and then threw some into the audience. That'd freak people out, but since most of them were art students, no fights broke out. Second time was at a real bar, opening for some punk band. People had heard about the chicken guts show, so they turned out for the weirdness. Well, they started out and one guy climbed a 10-foot step ladder and started reading some poem or something. Two minutes into the first song, he falls off the ladder and rolls around the floor holding his head and moaning. People applaud. After a bit of this, the guy running the bar realizes that's real blood running through the singer's finders and he's really hurt and calls an ambulance. Never heard of these guys again. That's not to mention the roadies for Black Flag playing as the Flag's opening act and playing totally nekkid. No tube socks like the Chili Peppers or whatever, just nekkid pale hippie guys. The bass player had his strapped up high, too. Wasn't there, but I remember Steve Allen on some late night talk show coming out in a bathing suit and having guys smear peanut butter and jelly all over his body, then handing out slices of bread to the audience. People came out of the audience, rubbed the bread slices on Allen's bod to get pb and jelly on the bread, then ate their sandwiches. Yuk!

The bass player just stopped about 3/4 of the through the show. Took off the bass halfway into the song and left the stage. Everybody else kept playing and even did an encore, but the bass player never came back. In '92, We saw the Labrea Stompers singer and drummer get into a fight. The drummer kicked his drums over and the singer started kicking the drums all over the stage. They punched each other a few times while the other two guys finished up the song. Then they helped the drummer set up his kit again and they all finished up the set with only a few more punches being thrown.

The two shows of note that I went to were the Ramones and Joe Jackson. with the Undertones opening up for them. For the Ramones show, the park was overrun by their fans all wearing the uniform, of black leather jackets, ripped jeans and converse hitops. They were totally unprepared for this. Everyone packed in to this outdoor area for the show and the prerequiste pushing and shoving started. Suddenly security is on the stage, pulling some woman out iof the audience who got in a knife fight. She's wearing either shorts or a mini, she's been stabbed in the leg, is bleeding perfusly and all she apparently wants to jump back in the crowd and pound the perpetrator because she's wrasslin with these security guys until finally they drag her off to an ambulance. And yes the Ramones did get to play. They usually did two shows, an early evening and night show. I would secure a school van from the company I was working for with cavate that I return it with a full tank of gas and no scars. So we packed it full of my friends and go the night show. We got there for the Undertones/Jackson show and were talking to the Undertones crew, who were saying the lads were thinking of bagging the second show because the crowd treated them so poorly. They went on anyway and the crowd very intolerant, booing and yelling out Joe Jackson songs. Finally lead singer Fergal Sharkey, after doing what we thought was a great set under wartime conditions , stops, glares at the crowd and yells "What do want? Freebird?" The place erupted in to cheers and applause. A shameful moment for the "garden state."

Seems likes it's my cup o' joe, though... I was wondering if anyone knew if the sountracks to these 2 movies have ever been released: Stanley Kubrick's The Killing Switchblade Sisters And if they do exist, any idea where I can find them?

Columbia House, as part of their re-TV series, is offering series subscriptions for Thunderbirds are Go!, the Prisoner, the Monkees, Route 66, and Mystery Science Theater and at fairly decent prices.
