absolutely NoT CrAp

Lux and Ivy are just about the cutest damn couple I've ever met. And nice as well.

...Off the Bone is a great album

WF for not allowing opening bands to smoke backstage IN VEGAS

Songs the Lord taught us is one my favorite albums ever, Lux Interior is one of the coolest guys around in music, they have the more fantastic song names i can remember, a taste for camp and psyched-out rockabilly sound. The Cramps are as NOT CRAP as it gets.

Fucking Human Fly.

I just heard about this video. How could any band who'd play this gig be crap?

I suddenly want a checkerboard flying v. Is Ivy playing a Dano Bari with humbuckers? What the fuck is she playing?

In the old days, Ivy was playing a rare-as-fuck guitar called a Lewis. They're Canadian, and you will literally never find one unless you live in certain parts of Canada and/or New York. She had somehow managed to snag two copies of the same model. I read this in an old Vintage Guitar interview with her. The only other famous rock person I've heard of using one was David Gilmour, who used a custom 24-fret guitar (back when that was uncommon) for the solo on "Money."

haul ass hyena!

not crap...

Yup. You know your guitars. :)



That's the one. A Bill Lewis Custom.

The Cramps were one of the first rock bands I ever shot, and my editor couldn't run any of the pictures I made of Ivy because her skirt was so short you could see her leopardskin panties in every one.

Definitely not crap. I don't play them as much as I used to, but "Songs The Lord Taught Us" is great.

Holy shit. Please tell me that this 'editor' isn't working anymore.

Seconded. How can you?

The first good concert I ever went to was The Cramps, right around the time Flamejob came out.

Not Crap.
