Tonight Michelle and David (Lowe) will be representing gutter & spine on the red carpet and in song at the 4th Annual O'Debbie Awards. What's that, you ask? Well, you need to spend more time in the real LES:

"Cruelty is above all lucid, a kind of rigid control and submission to necessity. There is no cruelty without consciousness and without the application of consciousness.[...] This cruelty, which will be bloody when necessary but not systematically so, can thus be identified with a kind of severe moral purity which is not afraid to pay life the price it must be paid."
-Antonin Artaud, The Theater and It's Double
"Don't be cruel"
-Elvis, Don't Be Cruel

gutter & spine learns from wikipedia

How do we keep our finger so firmly on the privates, no, pulse of America's youth?
Wikipedia, that's how. For instance, I just learned that

"[i]n one Captain America comic, the accidental use of the word "wank" was found hilarious by many teenagers."

sludge!

gutter & spine now have video up. Won't you have a look-see? If you want, you can even sing along:

Up from the depths of the murky sludge,you rise and stand in your glory, all thumbs
And metal, you look like some badass jesus and you've come to martyr my poor heart today.

Why did you not stay below you bastard?
Unformed, unnamed, unwanted, unclean,
So here you live and there I die,
From lust and shame, from fire and shit!

Ok so I die, like the old ones say, I burn with desire, it consumes poor me,

gutter & spine is older but none the wiser

What? gutter & spine tonight - it's free and we'll all still be celebrating my birthday.
We'll be debuting an angry, angry song about mimes and playing some newer numbers you probably haven't heard. So, come pre-party before heading on over to Steph Sabelli's open mic [theatre @ 94 St. Mark's Place] and / or Moonie & Diane's Game Night [Bowery Poetry Club].

When? Sunday March 30, 8pm

Where? Otto's Shrunken Head (14th Street between Avenues A & B)

How much? FREE!

Why? It's all about naughty dictators and slutty megalomaniacs. Rock by whatever means necessary.
