37 years ago today, I witnessed #PsychicTV materialize at the #VarietyArtsCenter in downtown LA. I came expecting groovy #hyperdelia, but instead what they (#GenesisPOrridge, #PaulaPOrridge, & #FredGiannelli) served up was my first dislocating dose of honest-to-god #AcidHouse. Tons of samples atop heavy, loud polyrhythms - my ears/head/spirit were ringing well past Easter Sunday.

Also of note: Gen was wearing an oversized #CelebritySkin t-shirt - apparently, he and CS drummer #DonBolles went way back.

The world is full of people with weird passions and I love them all, mostly. Learning about #DonBolles's collection of decades' worth of lost pet posters was a moment of pure joy (I just wish more of it was online):

That's the future I was promised: one where every kind of freak can find every other kind of freak.

The man who collects lost pet posters

Don Bolles is a veteran of punk who drummed for the band Germs. He also has a one-of-a-kind poster collection featuring people's lost pets.

The Waiting Room
Happy b-day to Don Bolles!! (b. Jul 30 1956)
Just saw him last weekend during a brief LA visit. We heard the new single from “Astrologer” and talked about how they got that guitar sound like those Gary Glitter records.
