Friends! The gentle hands of fate has given us this most pleasurable
grope for a very special Phantom Brain Exchange this month. First,
please note the convenient Saturday date, appropriately esoteric
venue, & slightly higher cover (we must pay the european!). Next,
imagine the Devil's Tower scene in Close Encounters of the Third Kind
- that's how awesome this event will be. Then move from micro to
macro & back again. Now, read on:
Czech synth scientist & deranged composer of retrofuturist kitsch
Felix Kubin is coming to knock our metaphysical socks off. The sands
of the Montague Plain will tremble & turn to glass. From his bio:
"It is still a complete enigma how he managed to telepathically
contact the long-lost space pioneer Yuri Gagarin. Indeed, Felix Kubin
might very well be the most important clairvoyant for the now
incorporeal cosmonaut, whose phantasmogorical concepts are
telepathically transmitted through Felix Kubin as desolate and
futuristic electronic compositions." He is on a four-date, two-city &
one-tiny-village whirlwind tour of these United States. This is
indeed a rare opportunity to meld phantom brains with this gentleman.

Doubling the joy, we have frenetic boston casio-core duo Gerty Farish!
lightning fast songs! hyper key-poking, polka drum machine fills,
buzzsaw guitar, & anthemic shouting! it's cute, fuck you. These guys
had a record on Load in the 90's, like before every town had a
highschool Lightningbolt cover band.

Schurt Kwitters brings electro-drum algorhythms punched & sewn by the
singer. A home-team favorite who all too often keeps her conceptual
urinals in a private locker at the bus station. She also operates the
many theatrical & vocal equipments for wmass dorkband Fat Worm of
Error. She has a tape on Open Mouth & more to come, i hope.
Lake Pleasant neighborhood immunoparasitogist Deborah Frenkel will be
giving a brief talk on her research on neglected parasitic diseases
(such as african trypanosomiasis and B dislymphopoiesis) and their
impact on the developing world. I told you, we'd get micro & macro!
Lastly but not leastly, Bull Tonguer & MPBE lecturer emeritus Byron
Coley will slap hit after hit on the decks from his obscenely massive
stacks of vinyl. Obscure delights unbound.
