UPDATE: Apparently, we already had a post called, We’re Not Dead. From 2007. At least it has been 6 or so years since that last one.
Be on the lookout for more audio, art, and theatricality.
As stated in Forty Years of Fluxus, let’s incorporate these ideas into experiment of 2014:
As I see it, Fluxus was a laboratory. The research program of the Fluxus laboratory is characterized by twelve ideas:
globalism, the unity of art and life, intermedia, experimentalism, chance, playfulness, simplicity, implicativeness, exemplativism,
specificity, presence in time, and musicality.
We managed to capture a rare performance by the (Heart) Rokita Band, a three piece band from the Greater Lafayette area, at last night’s (October 4th, 2013) Vienna Open Mic. This bootleg is a censored version due to a request of the employees. Apparently there were children present.
Don’t worry. Rumor has it that a complete, uncensored, polished studio version will be released soon.

The Unusual Few gave another splendid performance this time in a larger venue, Foam City. In this locals-only show, Wasps Masks, Doberman, and the Gestalts also took the stage throughout the night for a fun, high energy, and loud, knock’em around show.

Well it went. Vons Record Store Day. Jurassic Pop put on an awesome festival. Some more audio to follow. We were really blown away by one particular set by a new up and coming band, The Unusual Few.
Self-described as, a “Filth Pop” band from Lafayette, IN. Influenced by everything from 60s garage to 90s alternative, deriving mostly from old school punk rock, a great band for angsty teens. Raw energy. Loud performance. Bloody bass. Check out our bootleg of the spectacle.
