The Cramps — June 26, 1981
Randy Now: The first time they played the club, the leather
jacket that Poison Ivy wears on their first album cover got stolen. Tut felt so
bad that he gave her $200 to replace it, even though we lost money on the show.
Henry Hose: Every show the Cramps did was
freakin’ awesome. Lux Interior always had these real low-cut leather pants, and
the one question everyone had was, “HOW DO THOSE PANTS STAY ON?!” At one point
during the show he was down at the edge of the stage singing, and some girl
came up and popped a Quaalude in his mouth. He said, “I work hard for THIS?” He
looked at it and put it in his pocket. We would always try to grab his pants and
pull them down because they were only one tug away…
