9:28PM - CASPER HOME SAFE & SOUND.

I saw her in the alley trying to get Chris's attention so she could get into the apartment but Chris was not at home. We've been able to contact Chris and they just met up outside our apartment.

THE BATCAVE – two exclusive books


Photobucket

THE BATCAVE remains the best known Goth club in the history of the genre, and here we have two huge photo books of classic images, of exciting bands, covering its original existence.

THE BATCAVE Volume 1 – £19.99
A 620 page photo book containing 818 images of happenings at The Batcave during 1983. You will find Alien Sex Fiend (three gigs), Ausgang, Danielle Dax (posed session), F1 Electric, Marc Almond, Pork Helmets, Sexbeat, Specimen (four gigs), along with the club itself, including staff, regulars, crowd and cabaret artistes/dancers.

THE BATCAVE Volume 2 - £19.99

A 572 page photo book containing 789 images of happenings during 1984/1985, featuring: Alien Sex Fiend, Anorexic Dread, Ausgang, Bone Orchard, Christian Death (Rozz Williams), Let’s Wreck Mother (post-Sexbeat), Pepperlip (featuring Jo Bones), Sexbeat (that’s Sophie on the cover), Specimen (two gigs), Tabatha’s Nightmare (Mark Tinley/Marcus Scott), Zero Le Creche and Zor Gabor (former Banshee guitarist John McKay), along with shots within the club of staff, crowd and regulars.

The vast majority of these photos are previously unpublished. Details on how to order prints of images included in rear of each book.

You need to register on the Lulu site to buy books which is easy. DO NOT use their express post, which costs far too much. If in the UK or US just use the normal inland service (not ‘express’), and if you are outside the UK or US stick with ‘economy’ which is simply their term for normal airmail. (If so inclined buy more than one book because the postage costs come down sharply. All books are very well packaged. If you are a business when you buy more than 10 books the cost of the actual books decreases too.)

THE BATCAVE Volume 2

To keep up to date on all my book titles, including the new ones planned (including Flesh For Lulu, three volumes on Specimen, two on Alien Sex Fiend, three Gothic Image titles etc please keep an eye on http://stores.lulu.com/mickmercer - where you can also find all the existing books listed.

CEvin KEY of SKINNY PUPPY:
Very few people can claim the history and influence of an entire musical genre the way that cEvin Key can. Leaving his early drummer roots behind him (he played in the electropop band, Images In Vogue), Key was a founding member of the luminary Skinny Puppy, and a slew of highly influential later bands including Doubting Thomas, Download, Cyberaktif and Tear Garden, as well as producing and releasing several solo albums.

STEVEN R.GILMORE:
Steven Gilmore many people recognise from his highly distinctive design work for all the early (and later) Skinny Puppy/Images In Vogue/Ministry/900 MC Foot Jesus/Tear Garden/ohGRE albums artwork. He also was an original Luv-A-Fair DJ from 1980-1985 and was the designer of the famous lipstick Luv-a-Fair logo, which was his introduction to the music scene and led to him designing his first album sleeve. Since then, he has created over 200 album sleeves and gone on to produce design work for a dizzying array of the most prominent music labels, film companies, promotion and special effects companies in the world, and has received numerous awards for his projects. Check out his design work on his Official Website. Steven will also be producing the poster for next Luv-A-Fair party!!
