Yep, you heard right the lead singer of punk, 50's trash inspired The Cramps died yesterday aged 60. I've been lucky enough to see the Cramps in Melbourne, London and New York, all performances complete with microphone swallowing, plenty of tight vinyl and high heels. One gig he pulled off his stiletto boot and poured the sweat into his mouth...eeewww! Here's a pic of the last gig I saw at the Limelight in New York, 2006. I can't believe he was close to 60 here. Amazing.
