Beefheart Night at the Knitting Factory

Posted on May 16, 2009 by urbangraffito

Back on April 9th, 2008, Gary Lucas curated “Beefheart Night at the Knit“, a salute to the Music, Poetry and Art of Don Van Vliet, a/k/a Captain Beefheart.

Click here to view highlights of that night and backstage interviews with the evening’s many and various participants (thanks to Culture Clash).

Don Van Vliet might have been absent in body on this particular evening, yet his presence, and his affect on popular culture, art, and music is unquestionably undeniable.

    I attended this show and it was a fine night. The new Fast ‘n Bulbous cd is well worth picking up. Gary Lucas tears it up all over the record.
