Blue Oyster Cult - ~1978 San Diego Sports Arena. Heavy metal guitar satire, whether they knew it or not. All band members playing guitar at the end. Best of all, the intense laser show, never to be equaled due to safety concerns. The Clash - ~1982. Golden Hall, San Diego. The Combat Rock tour. Rock and Roll was saved in one night. At least, for me, it was. My Yes, ELP, and other progressive rock albums never saw the light of day again. The Cramps - ~1984 Adams Avenue Theatre, San Diego. Wild and crazy. Someone big dude jumped on stage, nearly touched Ivy, and Lux hit him over the head with a cast-iron microphone stand. The fight ensued. Lux got back on stage, the show kicked into high gear. The Supersuckers - 1990's San Diego. Numerous great shows at the Casbah, and other local venues.

A twisted AMC network dream. And I think I also saw this great correspondence he had with Divine in the early 70s talking about the making of the John Waters empire from circa 1972. but don't trust me 100% on that one. I don't think any Warhol film is in Pittsburgh, even though they are involved in their preservation. The work is being done in New York by the MOMA film archive, and I think the Whitney Museum is somehow involved as well. Many films like screen tests are in random, unlabeled, or unfinished form. Pittsburgh has a full set of new prints of all of the films which have been restored, which is a small fraction of the film yet to be gone through. I'm pretty sure they will not run any films which have not been copied. I've heard the rumor that some films may not be shown now because certain people who appeared in them are claiming they never signed a release and wish to be paid for them. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2000 11:28:34 From: jschwart@voicenet.com Subject: Earle Mankey Earle Mankey released two 12" EPs that I know of: In 1980, Select Records issued EARLE MANKEY, which includes both sides of the "Mau Mau" 45 plus four other songs: "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" (yes, yet another version), "Trashman," "Weenie Woman," and "Black & Blues." These songs sound similar in (crazed) production style to the 45 (which I agree is absolutely essential, and one of the great lost records of its era). None are as transcendent as "Mau Mau," but "Weenie Woman" is pretty close to "Crazy!" In 1984, a 6-song 12" called REAL WORLD came out on Happy Hermit Co. records. I haven't listened to this much but I remember really hating it...the songs weren't very good at all and the sound was just routine drum machine/electronic stuff. Danny Benair from the Three O'Clock plays on one song, as do various relatives like brother Jim Mankey (who like Earle was indeed on the first two Sparks albums...and I think Jim was in Concrete Blonde or somebody). This record was quite a disappointment since the earlier stuff was so good, and since it came in the middle of a very fruitful production period. At the time (and still?), Earle had a recording studio in his house, which included equipment bought from Brian Wilson's studio when Earle worked there. Michael Quercio told me he got to use the same echo unit that was used on "Good Vibrations." He ran the studio much like Mitch Easter's house studio on the other coast, except he would charge bands by the song rather than by the day, so they could take as long as they wished to finish the song. He produced the best records by The Three O'Clock, Long Ryders, and I'm not sure who else, during this period. Earlier he had produced 20/20's first album (including their classic "Yellow Pills"). If Greg Shaw is reading, he could possibly tell us more about Earle. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2000 11:58:54 EST From: SoundViews@aol.com Subject: new releases of note... anyone hear about these? > KEYSTONE RECORD CO.

I've seen the Ramones about 20 times over the years (1st time was in 1980), and even tho' they could be utterly disappointing at times, other shows were nothing short of amazin', none, however as much, as the time I saw them at this small outdoor festival in the north of Holland circa 1986, they played last, and even tho' the weather had been fine all day, right after Dee Dee's first 1,2,3,4, an insane thunderstorm broke loose a couple o' miles behind the stage. The Ramones bravely went on with their set as around them all hell broke loose; thunder, lightning, rain. "we don't give a fuck about the weather" Joey shouted, only to be answered by more thunder effectively drowning out the first seconds of the next song. At times the whole atmosphere was genuinely frightening, but the 2/3000 people still left went mad, no slam/mosh pit, more like total celebration, and we saw the best light show ever !. With the last note of the last song (We're A Happy Family) the sky cleared and the rain stopped, suddenly there was total silence, in this match between the Ramones and the weather gods us mortals who were allowed to watch this spectacle were the only winners, soaking wet from the rain, mud, beer and tears, Amen.
