Ah OK. How many people were there, just the ones we can see?

The cameraman was in approximately the middle of the audience, and there were a few people standing in the back as well since all the seats were filled. Still nowhere near as packed as his NYC reading at Tesco Fest last November.

Sotos performing what Sutcliffe J. & Consumer Electronics this Saturday. What should one expect from that bloke onstage these days?

Just ordered Sotos' Index and Tick. Looking forward to a good hard read. Anyone read the new Pure Filth? Seems like a good dish to have on the table..

Arkhe,


a friend of mine saw Sotos a while back. Don't remember where.. According to him he started a video projection, then went for drinks in the bar while the duration leapt. Film was interesting, though I think my friend expected a more fine-tuned live aktion. Nevertheless worth to check out I believe. Considering a voyage to DK myself. Good line up.

According to my Interpol contacts Peter was spotted at a gig in Paris earlier this week. It's true about the blackface, he also has a parrot on his shoulder and a peg leg now.

Don't know if you made it but in CPH this weekend he played some "gonzo-porn" videos and read these kind of transcribed interviews with porn amateurs, while Sutcliffe Jügend provided background drones and noises. He left the stage and the films stopped after this "intro", and then he joined for another piece later on. It was hard to hear what he was reading but several times he pointed to the projection and seemed to urge people to actually pay attention to it. I haven't read any of his books so I can't say I'm a fan but it was a good performance. From what I've read here it seemed to mainly focus around the Pure Filth book.

Yea, I am assuming, from what you posted, that he was showing "On The Prowl" projections and reading from the transcriptions in "Pure Filth".

I got my copy about 3 weeks ago and have read it through once and am starting it again after I finish my 2nd reading of "Lordotics".

Some of the "Walking Toilet Bowl" -videos are available as torrents. Downloaded all I could find, have to say it's surprisingly strong material, psychologically strongest I have seen from the field of scat humiliation. True enthusiasm for the subject. If interested, get at least "Walking Toilet Bowl (1990)" and "Say Yes To Chastity [aka.Walking Toilet Bowl 2]". The latter is the one that inspired the Whitehouse track Quality Time, most of the lines taken directly from it.

Received this today. I hesitated first because of high price, but now I'm glad I ordered it. Stylish quality hardcover and the texts themself (including lengthy introduction by Sotos and introductions to every transcription by Gillis) seems to be just what I wanted them to be. Jamies introductions are very honest and brutal. For example on Brown on Ebony -film: "Man, I hate niggers. Niggers are the fuckin' lowest. ... lowlife, cretin criminals who deserve to be treated as subhuman". I was under impression that he was somewhat reluctant to reveal himself as the maker of the Walking Toilet Bowl -series, but it seems I was wrong. "I'm not shamed of anything I've done". My notion is that the transcriptions work better if you have seen the actual films. Very good book about an intense and true libertine.

Thanx for the reply Arkhe. Missed out on the show in CHP. Didn't have time to travel. Føkking annoying. Seems like it could have been worth it.  

There's an audio cassette of one of JAMIE GILLIS'S "BROWN ON EBONY here - http://unholypassions.tumblr.com/TAPE%20RELEASES

Thanx for the share Si !

Psychotic, obsessive and potentially slanderous ramblings passed off as an autobiographical novel - and no, this time it's not the latest Peter Sotos book: http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=vMByyIpgvbEC&dq=peter+sotos&q=sotos#v=snippet&q=sotos&f=false

Wow. Thanks for posting that.
