Most any venue’s a good venue if you’re getting paid enough, I guess.
This also really happened, but I think it’s a Dwarves member with Lux Interior, not full Cramptitude.
i only saw the Cramps once live, and it was waaaaay late – maybe even around this time – but they were incredible. Lux blew my mind. maybe he did it every show, i don’t know, but watching him (no hyperbole) deep-throat his mic while singing these incredible howls, and then slowly destroy it with his teeth, tearing it apart bit by bit… it staggers me to this day. instant fan.
“Needs more CRAMPS!”
This reminds me of the bands that appeared on Buffy the Vampire Slayer at the Bronze:
That included Aimee Mann, the Breeders, and Cibo Mato among others.
Came here to post this; thank you for doing your part
Loved the Aimee Mann one. “Man, I hate playing vampire towns.”
It’s a little Lux Interior bird marionette! You best believe I post this whenever I can.
I remember that skit! It’s great and the Sarah McLachlan cameo makes it just that much better. (“I apologize for downloading your last four records, and I burned all of them for friends…”)
