[kj] PTV was: TG Wreckers/Coil

[Christof hamille]

I interviewed them for a local paper during their house era and Gianelli was 
very , very nice.  P-Orridge was...interesting.  Very open and easy to get 
info out of him.  We literally talked to him for 4 hours during the day long 
before the sound check and show.  Paula was not around much.  I guess her 
parents live in the Detroit area.  They had an excellent opening band 
touring with them called Celebrity Skin.  If you like New York Dolls style 
sleaze/glam rock this band was excellent.  HAd a hadful of releases I 
believe on Triple X records.
