Midnight Plowboys, 1995

Daniel, that was at a day long series of concerts for Mike Kelly, a very influential artist, who was also supposed to be playing with the LA Free Music Society, but he had just killed himself.

Everything was recorded and video-ed, but I haven't seen or heard, any of it yet.
