Plus prerecorded surprises

They're back! Animal Charm opening for the ever-popular Struthers and Fields, two duos from down under, that is, L.A. These guys deploy a heap of jet-age electronics-sappy video switchers and ticky-tack synthesizers-to perform miraculous mixes from the detritus of late-night TV and other damnable dumpsters. This is media archaeology of a sardonic sort, drawing on New Age videos, cable TV, how-to's, flea market finds, and calls for re-entry. Using crackpot juxtapositions, grating repetition, and some of the cheesiest soundtracks around, their video mixes are like bad dreams you just can't shake. Animal Charm is the happy duo, producing an image barrage that is 100% nostalgia-free, no preservatives added. Struthers and Fields is the dark duo, relying on syrupy music like a Beaver and Kraus Moog O.D. Join us as we turn up the Charm with Struthers and Fields, forever.
