[kj] (OT) The Cramps in Hollywood

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

Last time I saw The Cramps was late 2004 (man, has it been that long?) 
-- you're right; it's amazing how well Poison Ivy's looks have held up. 
At that point Lux still had the black hair and had makeup on sort of 
like a zombie, boatneck black sweater, tight black leather pants. 
HOWEVER, either I was hallucinating which I shouldn't have been -- no 
drugs), or Lux Interior had metal teeth -- or one of those "icy grill" 
tooth jewelry sets on over his teeth like hip hop artists wear. He 
seemed EXTREMELY drunk or fucked up or something but that didn't stop 
the band from sounding great. In between songs he'd ramble on about 
Britney Spears, his iPod, and other stuff I couldn't make good sense of. 
They played Count 5's "Psychotic Reaction," which was great. A pit 
actually started for that one.

Good line about the "big boobs" vs. "big cock" thing - hah.

Cheers,

Oliver
