Just as I resign myself to the fact that there is no more good industrial music, two Godfathers arise from the ashes and play here in NYC pretty much back to back. Skinny Puppy played at Irving Plaza last week and this weekend Psychic TV is at the Bowery Ballroom.

I almost went to SP, but I couldn’t find any of my old PVC buried in the closet and it seemed way too depressing to see them without Dwayne–did anyone check it out? I fear not only that the old magic would have been gone, but that I would realize I don’t even like that kind of music anymore. Plus my penchant for wacky Canadians who can’t seem to spell Kevin correct seems to have waned.
Odd little fact about Genisis P-Orridge and crew is that their keyboards are being played by my favorite media theorist, Douglas Rushkoff! Now that might warrant a trip downtown…
