SLEEP CHAMBER Played CLUB BABYHEAD in 1993, 1994, 1995. Many uploads have the dates confused. I know by what I waz wearing what year it waz. Matters very little. Although the audience welkumed us the management had problems paying us both times the AGREEDED amount. They offered us “Coors Lite” in cases. Yet SLEEPCHAMBER waz expected to paid the $1000 for the first and $2000 for the second show 1993 then 1994 and 1995. It never happened. SLEEPCHAMBER refused ‘Any’ offers after that from CLUB BABYHEAD. The band and THE BARBITCHUETTES enjoyed traveling to Providence, Rhode Island. But it cost US investments for Travel needs and etc. Its a 20+ Crew at least. Many events happened at theze CLUB BABYHEAD performances Fucking indeed.
With all the confusion …. I wore a sleeveless Leather vest in 1993. In 1994 I wore Leather pants. I wore a straight short sleeve Black shirt in 1995. OK ? …So figure out the single Live clips by what I am wearing to know the year.
Playing CLUB BABYHEAD waz a Pain-in -the-Ass. Its not the money az it iz getting the 25+ people together to Perform. It looks eazy, Its NOT…!! In 1995 I waz dating BARBITCHUETTE~ Semiranis. When we were hanging around back stage an ex-boyfriend showed up. He seemed to be overly affectionate by constantly hugging and kissing her through out the night. It started to be an issue with me az this pee-on continued to greet her like he had not seen her in 10 years. But after six times I announced my emotions. They did not go over well with Semiramis or the Pee-on. At one point me and Semiramis were fighting emotionally about my protective concerns. It followed out to the front ov the Club and we were emotionally arguing in a doorway in the street. Then at a point, the tallest Cop I ever seen. About 6 foot 6 started to get involved. He asked me if I wanted to go to “Locked-Up” …. I said to Semiramis … I never hit you …We were only talking…best to make this clear to the giant Cop … She did. And saved the Performance. What a Shit heel ….
Hey, don’t get me wrong. SLEEPCHAMBER had two great shows at CLUB BABYHEAD in Providence R.I. Its the next state over from us. But I waz in my phaze ov “trusting everyone’. I even assumed I could take the ‘Blow-back’ if I waz wrong. What you learn very fast in playing gigs in Clubs iz that it Never goez az you plan or expect it to. You Know it waz either good..(There iz -No Excellent)- or BAD …there are but a few ‘OK Shows’ … but to me that’s Not good. You have to have a level personal comittment to my ‘Plan/Concept’ … I am unable to Lie to myself. I know inside where your Ego iz locked up. And iz unaware ov your Individual sense ov Pride. It iz Not a selfish When one feels exaluted in Pride without Ego. Being ‘Proud’ iz Not Wrong. It haz many streams ov Emotional connections. Ones that comfort the Psyche. When the Show starts … its like a Train Ride. Train iz moving. You can not Stop it. Whatever happens ..you see az it a video-type loop and Performing on stage iz either you are the Master ..or Apex Alpha … and the audience iz out for Stimulation. You have to capture everyone to Matter. To impress the herd. Yet the herd iz the only reason an Alpha would Exist. So… az abstract az that iz, its my guess. I keep it very simple. Many times too simple. I am Confedent from personal experiences in life. Yet find myself excepting medium grade to be content enough. Performing live…iz the thrill ov directing the attention and main Focus to ‘Capture’ everyone’s energy and You control that Energy. Its a powerful experience. Your adrenilie iz high, your Insight iz at euphoric levels from the audience Energy . Once you know how to direct that energy there iz no other desire you can think ov that iz more Enchanting then the Energy ov an ‘Experience Exchange’ . That iz a hard Instinct to waste. Absorbing all the directed Energy to you, you feel your instinct to seduce all that direct Energy Exchange with out Your Ego needing to filter any opinion.
