buttonTHE PARKINSONS@ Shinjuku LOFT (20th Jan '03)

-- Part2 --

parkinsons

As the crowd made their exit, Al was at the door, shaking hands and talking with folks who enjoyed the show. Al tells me over a beer that he has been chosen to play Luxe Interior of the Cramps in a reenactment of their 1978 live concert at a mental hospital in California. He says with a smile how much Fuji Rock meant to them as a band and how he's ready to give the rest of Japan their money's worth come Showtime.

His personality belies the taut physique sneer and purple bruises. For a punk band, these Portuguese revelers are quite approachable, grinning and chuckling right through their fuck-you attitude. If you make it out, I recommend trying to catch them for a drink and a laugh (hundreds at Fujirock would agree). A handshake (and a whiskey) will definitely start a conversation. That is, if you have the energy left for it.
