I was so sad to learn yesterday about the passing of punk rock legend Lux Interior. Not only were The Cramps one of the first punk bands I ever saw (circa 1980 at Club Lingerie), but I saw them more times that I could count and they are hands down my favorite band. Once at a car show I was lucky enough to meet Lux and Poison Ivy. At the first Hootenanny in Irvine I remember Lux in shiny red pvc and heels (same outfit as in the Naked Girl Falling Down the Stairs clip), climbing the stage scaffold to perform. He was a true one-off and will sorely be missed.
Sad day, great music!
