Could It Be Satan???

Oliver Reed & Vanessa Redgrave
"The Devils"

Urbain Grandier: "Call me vain and proud, the greatest sinner ever to walk God's earth, but Satan's boy I could never be. I haven't the humility." - The Devils, Ken Russell 1971

One of my favorite films is Ken Russell's The Devils. It came out in 1971 with a fanfare of controversy. It was cut significantly and still received and "X" rating. Thus I saw what everyone else saw a more tame version of the same film. Trust me it was still a quite intense and graphic affair.

Well I am eagerly looking forward to the restored cut opening October 16th in 35 mm rated NC-17.

Here's the synopsis:

"In 17th-century France, Father Urbain Grandier's protection of the city of Loudun from the corrupt Cardinal Richelieu is undermined by a sexually repressed nun's accusation of witchcraft"

Sex, Violence and Religion what more could you want in a controversial NC-17 film? I ask you? I'm waiting...

Got "Butthole" ???

Buttholes! Butthole Surfers "Let's Go to Hell" Scattered Memories of the Butthole Surfers by James Burns Finally tells the story that was thought (and often hoped) would never be told... 495 pages, 7x10" paperback published by Cheap Drugs Because life was made for "Butthole"

The Butthole Surfers remain one of the most enigmatic bands in the history of rock music. Most of their records have no information of any kind, and often with the suggestion that you play them at 69 rpm.... They lived like nomads through much of the 1980s, and built their reputation upon tours that never ended, and shows that resembled hedonistic acid tests. They left a heap of former band members in their wake, and have often alienated as many fans as they've attracted. Here for the first time is the complete story of one of the most controversial and dangerous bands to have emerged from the ashes of the punk rock movement.  Let's Go to Hell compiles the scattered memories into the first comprehensive overview of the band. Featuring exclusive interviews, tons of rare and unpublished photographs, and analysis of the band's vast recorded (and unrecorded) efforts, Let's Go to Hell finally tells the story that was thought (and often hoped) would never be told... Author James Burns lives in Saugerties, NY with his wife and four children. He founded Cheap Drugs Records in 2000. Let's Go to Hell is the 9th release of the label, and first book to bear the Cheap Drugs name... James been running the Butthole Surfers Anal Obsession archive for more years than he wants to admit. Order: http://outskirtspress.com/webPage/isbn/9780578164397

Keep Calm And Dolly Parton

The Unsinkable Dolly Parton

To all you Dolly Parton fans, do you ever ask yourself: "What would Dolly do?" Well if she were an ordained minister she would marry same sex couples. 

Oh wait, she is an ordained minister, alright what same sex couples want Dolly to officiate their wedding ceremony? Better take a number...

The unsinkable Dolly told the Huffington Post: 

"I think everyone should be with who they love," Parton, 68, continued. "I don’t want to be controversial or stir up a bunch of trouble but people are going to love who they are going to love. I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. They should suffer just like us heterosexuals. Ha ha ha!"

What can one say? Dolly is an amazing entertainer, activist and pop icon..."Keep Calm and Dolly Parton!"

Dolly's 42nd studio album "Blue Smoke" drops May 13th - get it, get it!
