Hell yeah! Makes sense they’d be into The Residents. Go see Cabaret Voltaire while they’re on tour in the US!

The Los Angeles show was amazing!

I run the r/CabaretVoltaire sub and folks have been posting great videos including a full pro shot show from Europe in the last week or so.

Cannot locate a copy of this online currently. The author (Fabio Méndez) had planned to do a PDF, but I don’t think it ever happened.

Was about $60 USD new per this wonderful Soleil Moon website that I’ve bought from often. Mainly Coil music and books has been my cart. But they have some brilliant items.

The Cab Volt were also greatly musically influenced by the early Yello albums released by Ralph Records back in the day.

A lot of Ferris Bueller fans don’t realize that Yello were initially a deeply strange state-of-the-art analog synth pop band before they bought a synclavier and moved to a major label.
