He changes HisStory. He never experiences the same incident twice. The Narrator is the true liar.

This was where the guys from Voices/Metal Art Disco saw us, and when we later contacted them to see if they wanted to release a 12" vinyl or a cd-single, they wanted us to sign a deal for three full-length cd releases.

No visuals, no stage, the audience confused, the music loud as fuck. All material from the recent Zero/One sessions at Elsfjord Grd. Back home in the urban surroundings. The thoughts went to mister Minister Of Noise when it came to assault and appeal. Later SuperSkill played until the fire alarm went off just too many times. Weird atmosphere among the students/inmates of this academic institution. Well, its all about techno music isnt it?

Due to the 50th anniversary of the day Hitler prescribed his own medicine we of course entitled the show with a certain reference, and initiated the performance in the spirit of the victims. First time we tried out the material from 087 Sondring. Really strange to present new material in front of your friends from back home.

Immedeatly he was involved in the action, along with TB A46 he was body-painting members of the audience just 'til the point where they all joined in the chaos-jam. The most eager; Stefan Duna, was immedeatly initialised as honorary angel agent A51 of Republika. After the show we got really drunk on Becherovka, dancing to the heavy-ballads of the 80s. An attack from the right wingers, the "proud sons of Slovakia" came, and we almost got into heavy trouble. It calmed downSomething weird always happens in this town. s A07: Bass, bow, effects.

A40 reading a poetic ode to Nico written for Shallow Porn by A13 s Very slow and quiet concert. A ridiculous version of Velvet Undergrounds Venus In Furs was rapidly stopped. This night was specially introvert and intimate, the audience understood that we were not communicating. It was just too private, and the boys of the rock-group Paranoya became close friends. Great night where or tibetan bowl burnt a 10cm circle in the floor in the very midst of the room, and our Eyes had that special glow. s A07: Bass, effects.

Sketch/Elastika * ,,,,,,,,,, Club Verdensrommet Mnefisken Oslo No 091196 Replika "Barad Dr" Knaus Samfundet Trondheim No A commissioned work for a Tolkien-night with a.o. David Day (Tolkien The illustrated Encyclopedia). As Major Ego A22 was in prison, Lasse A73 took over the control. Kelly A34 (Medit) came from Oslo, and Mads A101 (Clop Neplat) joined in. Performance actor was Nils A100. The stage and room were sigilized and decorated by Martin A40 of Origami Ballistika. Lasse says: "Mads A101 did analog synth, Kelly a34 did boxes, Lasse A73 smashed a mic'd mail box, Nils A100 ate jelly, drank wine, shaved his tomatobean-covered legs, carved a cross in his chest, vomited and rolled around in it. People were really friendly and said they liked it, but I heard someone had puked afterwards, which is the best compliment I could ever get." Tore a22 says: "Yet another proof on trivial magik; here I was sitting in jail knowing that my friends should act out my role the same night. When picking up my mail I see that my mother had sent me the "Tolkien Illustrated Encyclopedia", a very nice present. I called her and found out that she didnt know about the Tolkien affair at Knaus, as I thought Id told her. On top of that its author David Day held a lecture on Tolkien the same night. A weird coincident, or...?! I guess the Tolkien-link was sealed. 1997 040197 Replika/Lasse Marhaug Band/Gom/Clop Neplat "Ka/Blod" Veita Scene Trondheim No A releaseparty for the Replika cd, the Lasse Marhaug and Gom split-7" and the Clop Neplat cd. Tore A22 says: "The soundcheck went better than ever before, never have I met a sound engineer that respected my lo-tech equipment and weird/harsh taste in sound that much (except of course those we know from before), Kai A80 was a good consultant, relaxed as he is. Martin A40 and Elisabeth A15 put up the usual stand of merchandise and all was set for a good night. First on stage was Clop Neplat (Mads A101 of Origami Replika), sitting down almost in the dark with a 4-track he manipulated ambient sounds with the reminisence of Deathprod, a short set, utterly discreet. Slowly people came, and reached about 70 persons, which is not bad considering it to be four days after new years eve and promoted as a noise-event. Then came the duo GOM, not their night for sure, one guy with an old synth and 4-track and the other with guitar. And so, it was time for Lasse Marhaug Band, Lasse of course being Lasse A73 of Origami (Replika). As he was a "band" this night, he had brought with him the very expressive and energetic singer Kim X-mas of Nomad Nipples (whose debut cd was produced by Tore Ylvisaker A02 and Tmmervik A06 of Origami Teknika). It was a total blast-off, Lasse operating his few boxes and beating up the empty box of olives, Kim jumping around on the stage screaming and shouting, twisting and twirling, even falling down from it. He fell over Lasses 4-track as well, damaging it. Lasse got angry and punched him, pushing him away. It was a funny show, not so high-frequency noise as expected, more of a rock'n'roll feeling to it. It lasted only nine minutes. I put on the Linton Kwesi Johnson tape, for everyone to relax to some great political dub (mostly because Lasse hates it), and 18 minutes it was my turn. This time I had to be alone on stage, as Lasse A73, Kelly A34, Mads A101 and Nils A100 stole the fame at the Barad Dr concert 091196, when I was in prison. Guess I needed some ego-ejaculation. It was supposed to be a well-disciplined performance, as I intended to act out the cold focussed artist role in my nice stockbroker suit and italian shoes. But after two tracks of "new age" instrumentation (the metal sheet and the giant rainstick) it escalated totally. From there I almost can't remember what happened. I started screaming and jumping around as well, taking my jacket and shirt off. I threw the metal sheet, the four-piece effect box and the metal percussion instrument (after beating myself with it hard) out from the stage. The only lyric that came up was "mediatrash! desire!" on top of the prerecorded Medit-drumtrack, and before I was finished rolling around shouting, the last track came about. Id prepared a cover version of Neil Young's "My My Hey Hey", just stolen the first 20 seconds and then making a short loop from it (the Weld version). I started stating "My My Hey Hey, Rock'n'roll is here to stay. Its better to burn out than to fade away...", a respectful joke, but Im not sure anyone understood it, or even heard it. The people in the audience really thought Id gone berzerk, and it was pretty close, guess all the anger towards authorities made me do it. Luckily enough we have a good video from both Lasse and Origami Replika, which will be released by Wertham in Italy." 100197 Grafika "Crucial Correspondence" Z Galleri Oslo No 100197 Republika "Opening Party" Grnerlkka Lufthavn Manipura/Dr. Erik, Origami Replika "5 min soundcheck", Medit/Sketch, Who Knows?
