I just said that because the show included Elvis, or some cognate of him. Guess they had been playing with Elvis themes for a while.

Tempted to crank up the thermostat, but will be a good doobie put on a <a href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2006/10/ecotips_jimmy_c.php" rel="nofollow">sweater</a> instead. Saw the Residents once -- at midnight inside a white marble bank building in Berlin (1983). That was the Vileness Fats tour, not my fave, but indelible memories of innocent dumplings hearing life lessons on Elvis' lap while the muse's headlamp eyeball antennae glowed and bobbed in the background. There was lots of neon paint and blacklight, if I remember correctly. This business about N. Senada... any further evidence that it might actually have been Beefheart? It’s getting chilly in here!
