Oingo Boingo

A&M SP-4863

1981

One of the ways the Skull hair bow can be worn!

I love this bow-I don't want to part with it. It reminds me of the earlier days of Oingo Boingo.

Bow is made of black tulle polka dotted with green sequins. It features a grinning skull charm framed in more green sequins and two dangling checkerboard charms suspended by black metallic seed beads.

The bow is attached to a sturdy barrette with green sequin backing.

me and danny elfman backstage in SLC around 1985 - of course Danny went on to even greater heights but i still think oingo boigo was as good as it got for him

______________________________________

In a rare twist of magic, all of the creative forces came together and we decided to shoot MUTAYTOR'S new album in the historic Westerfeld House as well as a documentary on the making of the album and the intense history of the house where all of the crazy's of the 60's came to play.

The Burning of Rome (http://www.myspace.com/theburningofrome )is the other band at Speakeasy Studios. Their drummer, Lee, owns the place and we rent a side room from him. Their sound is kinda like death-pop. I read a review that classified them as gypsy vampire punks (something like that). Well, I've been talking out my ass for months saying that we were going to come to their shows. Well, Evan (band mate in The Gents) and I finally made it out. They opened for Dead Man's Party (an Oingo Boing tribute band). It was a really great show for them with a good size crowd. They have lots of energy, noise, and stage presence. Really energized with great harmonies singing some dark-comedy-esque lyrics. Really glad I made it out to show some love!

 

Dead Man's Party was great as well (http://www.myspace.com/deadmansparty). People often overlook Oingo Boingo's contribution to music when thinking about great bands of the 80s. Too bad. Dead Man's Party puts on a great performance. All members really perform. Horns = AWESOME!!! Their singer is so good too. Really gives it his all for Danny Elfman!

 

So yeah... Another concert for me.

This was take during a photo session I had with John Avila of Oingo Boingo.

Every two weeks or so, I go to Amoeba Records here in Hollywood to look for any Oingo Boingo records that have come in. I've been searching for Dead Man's Party and Only A Lad for months, but they never show up. Today, both were there and I bought them. I want to have all of the Boingo catalog on vinyl if I can eventually and I'm really close now. All I need is Dark At The End of the Tunnel and Skeletons in the Closet. Not sure if Boingo was ever on vinyl. At any rate, I want them all. If you love me and you see any Boingo vinyl laying around for cheap, GET IT cuz I will certainly take it. I'm an obsessed freak.

 

I walked into Amoeba wanting 2 CDs... I left spending $70. Oy.
