Here's Bill and the boys doing the demented Flying Nun-era epic 'Russian Rug' at Christchurch. This performance brings back memories of the gig at the PR Bar earlier this year: The Bilders lay down a slow, evil groove, and Bill solos endlessly and brilliantly over the top. Check out the elderly gent getting down on the far side of the stage.

FIGHT THE DEVIL!
FIGHT THE DEVIL!
On my Blog EYELIGHT I - for some reason (I googled Tama Iti and Kathy Acker - at different times there was no plan as such, I was just "tinkering" I guess); now there is no obvious connection but there are some subtle parallels - if people check out the link -scroll down - I also have some art and some pictures of Tamaiti etc
I don't realy know Acker's work very well and for me she is an "outsider" (which can be good) and part of me admires what she did, part of me fears it - but in many ways an extraordinary person - working class and innovative - Tama iti is of course form a vastly different world but I feel there are connections (although I made them more or less by chance - there are of course connections between all people) - in that we are all "outsiders" or in that the "rebelliousness" or originality and strength of spirit of Acker and her (great interest in tatoos as a great art form - mokos) - are perhaps a link - I may be wrong.
Perhaps - or hopefully one may see a more "human" side of both persons than many of the "establishment might portray...
