keep it together

most anticipated rockread at mi casa (after julian cope's japrocksampler): rich deakin's keep it together: cosmic boogie with the deviants and the pink fairies. the author's the webmaster for funtopia, a fan site for expat brit writer-muso mick farren, and the deviants and fairies were gangs of anarchic weirdos who blazed a trail through the '67-'74 brit underground, paralleling in certain ways the trajectories of the stooges and mc5. (radio birdman founder deniz tek witnessed a fairies performance in london while enroute from michigan to orstralia to attend medical school, '71, and thought they were "better than the stooges.") book's due out in june.
