Swinging the axe


Having just turned 64 ("Will you still need me...") is Kristy Marlana Wallace, a.k.a. Poison Ivy Rorschach. A great guitarist. Hasn't been much heard from since Lux shuffled off this mortal coil. Wonder what she's up to.

few rock'n'roll show moments've equaled the thrill of lux, wearing nothing but a black g-string, crawling over the top of a stack of amplifiers while growling into the mic held in his mouth over the top of a wall of dissonant, feedback-riddled 'sound' :) ...

certainly hope ivy's well & at peace. she & lux brought much joy (& healthy & much needed dose of madness) to the world...

Yes, I can imagine. Well, I can conceptualize. There's almost certainly something my imagination misses. :)

Joy and madness. Both are necessary, and we miss both when they go out of the world. Better for the latter to be provided by artists rather than the government.
