Great God Pan

Tune in this Tuesday the 20th to WPVM for Ooze Out's tribute to Cluster's first stand/fast land/stash band/mast hand in Big Sur. The last time Cluster came here to play was way back when Kraftwerk first came back and Jean-Jacques Perrey gave a presentation at Art Center. That was a good week. This time Arthur is sponsoring them for a few West Coast shows, including an L.A. show at Farmlab on Thursday and a Big Sur sesh at the Henry Miller Library on Friday. If you can't make it to a gig you can at least let Peter Poffenberger, Knew Innergy Arrak, and their friends take you on a very Roedelian (and Möbian!) journey through the time strata with the help of cliffside denizens like Mike Love, Richard Brautigan, Michael Rother, Brian Eno, Dick n' Mimi, Jack Kerouac, Dick St. John, Johnny Rivers, Hunter S. Thompson, and more! It'll be an experience you'll treasure forever. And ever.

OOZE OUT!
