was lucky to see them a couple times...one of the guys i worked with for awhile had been a roadie/member of the slave pit for awhile, when they came through town he got us on the guest list and i got to see my friend get eaten by a giant vagina. great show.
later on we talked to their management and got them to come by on an afternoon before a show and play the game Dance Central, you could tell they were tired as shit but when the camera went on they were totally and and funny...kind of defined them to me, taking time out of their day for no money to come do something silly at a video game magazine...
RIP, it was a hell of a thing you did Dave

Saw the first British tour and had a blast. Ended up covered in so much fake stuff I think I had to trash my clothes the next day. RIP dude.

this is kind of touching....GWAR does a surprisingly good version of Pet Shop Boys' West End Girls,then goes into Jim Carroll's "People Who Died" w/verses about their friends and obv Brockie

GWAR were pretty great Saturday night. The whole setup of the new touring show is perfect.

Finally watched it. Great cover. Thinking about posting it in the Pet Shop Boys thread. Feel like more ilxors would see it there.

I watched this morning...wow both "West End Girls" and "People Who Died" are really great, I kind of got choked up at the end, which is a really weird thing to say about GWAR (unless they were actually physically choking me, which would make more sense)
