R.I.P. Lux Interior

...well hell....ANOTHER hero of mine shuffles of of this mortal coil.

Lux Interior of The Cramps has died. One of the best frontmen EVER. The Cramps are the prototypical psychobilly band.

I met Lux and his wife Poison Ivy (the guitarist for the Cramps for those who don't know) back in 1997. They were both very cool, and suprisingly soft spoken. Lux was definately taken away too soon. I'll miss the Cramps, they were the real deal. Lux would do just about anything up stage to entertain the crowd. Don't see that kind of dedication to entertaining today.

Here they are doing an old Carl Perkins number.
