sorry, i just took this from some press release...

Howie Pyro left home at 15 years of age from Queens New York & headed to the Lower East Side of Manhattan & witnessed the dawn of the punk rock movement. He became one of the youngest musicians on the scene with his first band The Blessed formed in 1977. Howie went on to play, record and/or write with Joey Ramone, Ronnie Spector, Johnny Thunders, Danzig, Rancid, D Generation, Psychic TV/ Genesis P. Orridge, Jesse Malin, The Gun Club, Kid Congo Powers (Gun Club, Cramps, Nick Cave & Bad Seeds), etc. Howie has also done Music supervision work for films & TV, & is a well known Disc Jockey. Howie has a radio show called Intoxica! on luxuriamusic.com. He has deejayed for everyone from the Cramps (live shows) to Christina Aguilera (her 21st birthday party!!??!! i'll never figure that one out.) to Genesis P Orridge's induction into Santerian Priesthood, fashion shows & Hollywood celebrity events (i.e. premiere party for Mad Men TV show, etc.). Howie wrote the book "Confessions of a Rat Fink" with Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth in 1991.

I collect records, odd books, movie posters, concert posters, toys, magazines, "ugly" 60's knick knacks (Psycho Ceramics, Popsie Push Downs, monsters), Rat Fink/Weird-Ohs stuff, Spook Show Posters, Autographs, Horror Host TV Memorabilia, paperbacks, original art, anything that says A GO GO on it, etc.

R.I.P. LUX INTERIOR

Posted on February 5, 2009 at 5:30pm 1 Comment

Having met the cramps & seeing them in late 1976 i believe & following them ever since, i can say that Lux, Ivy, & long time big sister Miriam Linna, shaped my life, showed me where it's at & changed my life forever. There are no words to explain how sad i am. These people created an entire lifestyle, along with John Waters early films, that is taken for granted today. This website would not exist if there were no Lux Interior. Sad sad day. It's raining here in Los… Continue

I´ve been missing the "chinese a go go" part of cool tunes...
How does that sound??

Howie , Thanks for the friend request. I met you , briefly , many years ago , in New York. I CAN'T BELIEVE ONLY ONE PERSON REPLIED TO YOUR EXTENSIVE FJA OBITUARY....THAT'S JUST NOT RIGHT. You probably met Uncle Forry several times . I met him once , about 12 years ago , he was a sweetheart. I wrote a blog about him , too , on My Space , called "Forrest J. Ackerman is Dead , and I Don't Feel so good , Myself .". Then , of course , I later had to write "Lux Interior is Dead , and I Feel Like Homemade shit. " They were published in Roctober Magazine.  That was a long time ago , already , but we won't forget the people who shaped our lives.      Rock'n'Horror , John.
