Are they worth looking into?
Never liked them…
I like the old stuff but anything past like 92 does nothing for me. I really like early Acid and New Beat though, so bear that in mind.
they have some good stuff out there…early …better to watch there live concert videos
Didn’t the chick from Nocturne end up singing for them? I forget her name…I know of her because her band opened for Pigface when I saw them one time(I think I met her at some point)…she even sang on an album or two of theirs…I remember reading that she ended on one of those ridiculous Brett Michaels reality shows…
the cd single Pussy ruled
Too bad Lords of Acid’s Official Head of Viral Marketing doesn’t come in here anymore to drop some bombshell about the latest Praga Khan release as though anyone here was interested.
i have all there cd’s , but don’t play them much.
Lords of Acid have their moments. As far as albums go - Our Little Secret and Farstucker are my favs.
I saw them once back in the mid 90’s. It was a really fun show.
We met Praga before the show for bit. We rolled up to the venue pretty early and he was standing out front for some reason. Seemed like a pretty decent fellow.
Those are my two favorites also.

Yeah, Lacey Conner. She’s a nice gal. She wanted to kill me at one point, but we got past that little bump in the road. I don’t like ANY of her music (she’s done stints with Pigface, Lords of Acid, Nocturne, and her new project HALO) but she’s an good kid and I wish her the best.
Oh, right, and she was on Rock of Love, hahahaha!!!

Yeah, gunnar smoothed things over with her when we went to go see Fix in LA. she was there trying to be important. Quite comical.
I saw Nocturne in the '90s.
They were awful.

Ha! Then we’ve probably met then, grmps. I was the one who got her into that screening and she sat with mrs_cripple and I. The one at the Fonda, yeah?
I know I’ve definitely met Gunnar in real life.

I don’t remember the name of the theatre. Grumps and I were guests of Doug Freel, the director. I got a few other friends in and we saw a couple other Prongers (some cat named Carrion, as I recall) there. The after party was some rooftop shindig. PM me your photo and I’ll tell you if I remember you.

Yeah, I was hanging out with gunnar that whole night. So, It’s quite possible we did meet. I’m kinda quiet If I don’t know people, so I only really talked to gunnar that night. Although, I did meet 2 other prongers there that night. I can’t remember either of their handles but one of them has this caveman looking avatar and seldom posts.
Lacy was funny because gunnar had just finished telling me in the car ride down about his adventures with her on the internet and ramco and not but 20 minutes later she struts past us in the lobby and I look at gunnar and say, “there’s your girl.” He was like really? you think that was her? I said, “My wife made me watch the entire rock of love season, that’s her.” So, Gunnar went to talk to her and I hung back.
later on we were waiting for a chance to talk to barker, trying to be polite and wait our turn and so finally here’s our moment and she totally rushes in front of us and starts name dropping all these people she has worked with like ogre and what not and you could totally see barker trying to process this information, like WTF am I supposed to do with this? what does she want me to say?" he just smiled and nodded his head sort of but he looked noticeably uncomfortable. She finally left and I got my autographs and fanboyism on!!
So, yeah, long story short, I may have met ya.
you going to the descendents show march 21?
Were you the couple that were talking to serj on the roof patio thingy? I was trying to get an autograph for my wife and I think he knew I wanted an autograph so he wouldn’t even acknowledge our existence then I turned around and he was gone. I felt like butting in and saying “look dude I really don’t swoon over your band, but this is for my wife so stop being a pretentious dick and make with the autograph.” but gunnar kept saying don’t interrupt. So I didn’t.
and we saw a couple other Prongers (some cat named Carrion, as I recall) there.
Yeah, that was his name. and his cousin or somebody was there too who also was a member but just lurks.

Sorry, Dude. I should’ve just butted in for ya. Serj looked like he was ready to fall asleep from boredom anyway. And who really cares. It ain’t like he’s Prince or something.
Next time I’ll just clothesline those douchebags for ya and get ya whatever signatures and such you want. He’d probably have been glad for the distraction regardless.
This is too funny.
Yeah, that’s the Fonda. (With the upstairs smoking patio) And I was there when she went up and spoke to Paul. I actually held his beer while he signed some dude’s jacket. (Paul pretends to remember me from the Wax Trax Retrospectacle where I drunkenly talked his ear off) I did briefly speak to Serj as I’ve met him a number of times here and there.
I too was a guest of Doug’s. I went to the Chicago premiere for FIX and chatted him up then. We have a friend in common, so when the LA screening came up. . .
(I know Carrion too. He posts a little more frequently over at Litany)
Gunnar, you’d probably remember me better from the DethRok album release party at Bar Sinister. A mutual friend introduced us, and we actually had a conversation about where you were from, how you were staying near Hollywood & Highland, etc. I had just started posting here, so it just seemed sort of pointless to try to explain who I was. I wouldn’t have even recognized you, except you’d recently posted one of your “Gunnar vs Vegas” threads with a few pictures.

Hmm… i don’t remember anybody else around when we were about to talk to paul and got sniped by lacy… I certainly don’t remember her getting an autograph. It seemed like all she did was name drop to an unimpressed barker. But hey, I’m probably remembering wrong. All this went down towards the end of the night.

Its all good my brother. We played it right. Just glad i was not the fan. i would have been disappointed in how i perceived his behavior. Glad my wife wasn’t there to have her view of him tarnished
