      I read that it was already screened in Croatia.

      P.S.  John.  Deniz Tek said in this film that he was influenced by Dick Wagner & The Frost!

    • Dead Boy , Udo Taro Dao Man is the English , phonetic spelling of Ultraman Dao (OR Daeo?). I'm not saying this spelling is correct. That's just how I've heard it from other people. BUT , I WAS TOLD , IN THE 70'S , THAT THE THREE KEY Ultramen were Ultraman , Ultraman Dao , AND ULTRAMAN TARO. 

      I never saw Ultraman , Kamen Rider , Spectreman , etc. on TV in the 70'S OR 80's. i ONLY KNEW ABOUT THEM FROM A FRIEND WHO LIVED in Okinawa ,and another who lived in Thailand , I think.....

      Spectreman , I saw , briefly ,, in the early 80's. But , that was it.

    • Dead Boy , I've always heard it pronounced "Udo Taro Dao Man" in Japanese. I MUST HAVE HEARD IT WRONG . I think even my friend who worked for TSUBURAYA studios said that.....How is it pronounced in JAPANESE ? Can you write it out here ?      

      Back to the subject. Teengenerate played two shows in one night in Chicago in '95. They played the Fireside Bowling alley (Better known for it's UBER - stank men's room. I went to CBGBs. This place was as bad or worse.),  then the Empty Bottle , opening for NEW bOMB tURKS (sORRY , IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE OTHER WAY AROUND. THO' The NBT singer told me he saw me at the Bowling alley , and that Teengenerate's set blew him away.). THEY WERE MUCH BETTER LIVE THAN ON RECORD.

      I met Fink , later on. Very polite. WE SPOKE VERY SLOWLY FOR EACH OTHER'S BENEFIT. HE SAID HE WISHED HE COULD HAVE BOWLED WHILE THEY WERE AT THE FIRESIDE BOWL (THEY STOPPED HAVING BOWLING AT SHOWS , EARLIER.) , AND THAT IT WAS A VERY COOL PLACE , THERE WAS NOTHING LIKE THAT IN JAPAN , AS FAR AS PLACES TO PLAY THAT WERE'NT JUST CLUBS AND CONCERT HALLS.........

      Maybe, I guess you thought it was Japanese.

    • Chris , I just saw a review of a UK Alice Cooper gig , maybe from a couple of years ago , where Alice brought Arthur out as a super - special guest. Alice would'nt let just anyone on his stage. 

      I'm sure Arthur and Lord Sutch resented Alice's later success after they'd shared stages with him , but , I get the feeling they were all cordial , if not the best of friends.

    • NEVER heard about that... Surely , HENRY COULD HAVE SURMISED IT WOULD HAVE GONE THE WAY IT DID.  It's the kind of project that would have been supressed , with threats , or worse.

      Henry saw his own best friend , murdered. I'm not casting aspersions at him , but , I believe that would have made him able to feel some of what The Manson Family's victims' families still feel , today.

      Even Roman Polanski evokes some sympathy , regardless of what he did , later. Plus , unlike Manson , he's a great Artist . Nevergot it with "LIE'' , SORRY , I KNOW SOME PEOPLE THINK IT'S GREAT.

      If I got past the fact that it was Manson , I'd still say it was OK , BUT NOTHING of substantial in my humble opinion. Hitler was a lousy painter, and some people believe his lack of success as an Artist led to the rise of The Third Reich. Come on. Really? Winston Churchill was a WORSE painter , and , he was on OUR side. Getting dissed by the Beach Boys , after spending a Million Dollars of Dennis  Wilson's money, is hardly grounds for instigating murder (It's widely believed Manson only killed one or two people with his own hand. The same is believed to be true about Hitler.).

      But , Henry had his reasons for trying to make this project a reality , It's not my place to criticize.

      It's a strange realm , Rock'n'Roll and mass murder. Bobby Beausoliel , himself , did brief sojourns as a pickup Bassist with Love , The (other) Grass Roots , and The Weeds (Lollipop Shoppe) , which he claimed made Manson jealous. The Kinks briefly met and visited John Wayne Gacy in his home , several years before his crimes are believed to have begun. Gacy was promoting their concert in Chicago. Lux Interior was furious when some correspondence with Gacy , written in confidence , ended up being transcribed in a book. "If you can't trust a Serial Killer" , said Lux , "Who CAN you trust? ".

    • I found this interesting piece of musical knowledge from Dangerous Minds:

      Henry Rollins produced an unheard album by Charles Manson in the 1980s...

      Henry Rollins has had one fascinating life. He was in one of the most important punk bands of all time, he played Vanilla Ice in a music video, he has been the voiceover actor for Infiniti, he had a talk show on IFC, he had a small part in Jack Frost.....In the 1980s Rollins also produced a full album by Charles Manson for SST, which would have made the noted psychopath and cult leader, who wanted to bring about a race war, labelmates with Bad Brains. The release of the album, entitled Completion, was cancelled due to safety concerns. Only five copies of the album were ever pressed; two belong to Rollins and the other three apparently are Manson’s.

      In December 2010, Rollins participated in an event at the Echoplex in Los Angeles to benefit the Santa Monica radio station KCRW in which he played a variety of ultra-rare tracks, including a live rendition of “Pay to Cum” from the second show Bad Brains ever played, the first-ever Fugazi demo (“Waiting Room”), several Black Flag rarities, and one of the songs from the Manson album Rollins produced for SST. When he played the track—the title of which has, to my knowledge, not been made public—Rollins joked, “I can hear you all listening to your hair grow.”

      In 2008 Rollins told the NME of the correspondence with Manson that led to the recordings:


      “He wrote me a letter out of the blue once and he said, ‘I saw you on MTV and I thought you were pretty cool’.

      “So we corresponded a few times in 1984; I’d just tell him about what we were doing with our new record and he’d send back semi-lucid responses.

      “He made references to The Beach Boys stealing his ideas, which sounded like sour grapes, and told me to tell everybody else to take care of wildlife. That must have been the old hippy in him talking.”

      Rollins outlined that he was very young when he started corresponding with Manson—who was sentenced to life in 1971 for the infamous Manson Family Murders which took place two years earlier.

      “At the time I was very young and having him write me letters made me feel very intense and heavy,” he said. “I’d always know I’d have a letter in my PO Box from him because the woman behind the counter at the post office would give you this awful look.

      “His letters would always have swastikas on them so they were easy to spot.”

      According to a 2010 article in The Guardian, “A lawyer representing Manson wrote to SST, asking them to help complete and release a collection of Manson’s songs. Then as now, Manson was serving a life sentence for his role in the Tate/LaBianca murders. ... Rollins agreed to produce the songs but a string of death threats forced SST to call off the project.”

      In the mind of almost everyone, Manson is first and foremost a homicidal lunatic. It’s quite clear that in his own mind, Manson is first and foremost a musician. During his detainment before his 1971 trial, Manson was “very anxious for his music to be heard” and enlisted his friend Phil Kaufman to get his music released. Indeed, an album called Lie: The Love & Terror Cult was released on March 6, 1970. As recently as 2010-11 Manson has released two albums of folk music on Magic Bullet Records called Air and Trees.

    • I've seen very favorable reviews of Alice's recent shows , which  does my heart good. He's still such a master showman , with a great band , and cool "Deep Cuts" in abundance. But , I have'nt seen him in about 10 years, because he stopped gigging in Chicago proper , as , apparently , his real following is in the suburbs. places you need wheels to get to.  Some of these "Fans" think Alice represents their blatantly racist views , just because he's a Christian and a Right Wing  Republican , somewhat akin to Ted , today , BUT , ALICE IS'NT RUBBNG AMERICA'S NOSES IN IT.

      Besides , do you think he's going to turn Black , Native American or Mexican kids away from his youth center in Phoenix ? ALICE HAS GOT A WHOLE LOTTA HEART, he's done more to help people than these suburban rednecks , out looking for a scapegoat.....

      I have NEVER heard anyone say , "I met Alice Cooper. Boy , what an asshole !". I met him twice , and he was SO gcool. He learned from the REAL GENTLEMEN , LIKE HIS GOOD FRIEND , VINCENT PRICE.

      I have met a few "FANS" who were major assholes. One guy told me "Alice is a great WHITE man". Why not say , he's a great MAN?!
