Bongo Voodoo Night at Club 57.

36 years ago tonight: Journal entry for sis’s party.

Saturday, March 22, 1982. Bongo Voodoo Night at Club 57.

Frenzied ceremonial dancing / death dolls / cursed chickens / rare films – Witch Doctor (a short) & Know Your Snakes. It was the world premiere of Bradly Fields’s Voodoo Rhapsody, which instigated the infidelibration of the Orishas. I think Bradley had a three piece band but it was difficult to distinguish the musicians from the possessed. Min sprinkled the bar with chicken’s feet. Several birds were plucked so Salmonella could go venereal after this evening.

Blame it on the jungle rhythms. Suburban Geeks! One girl French kissed a dead chicken she’d been rocking in her arms then rubbed up and down her body. A number of people got a face full of fresh plucked chicken as they came in the door to the Club.

Got laid and won’t say.
