Lux Interior Dead.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I am truely shocked and numb at the same time.
I met Lux and Ivy twice over the last 6 years and told them that they had been a soundtrack to my life.
I really cannot say much more only stay sick mate and thanks for the memories and outfits.

That's a floored by pop moment.
I'm truly sad that half of one of the last couple who genuinely did what they wanted and didn't give a flying.. is gone.
No butter or car insurance .,they just loved the music ,what is Ms Ivy going to do?
Saw them twice years ago and they were brilliant both occassions.
A wierd f***ed generation is passing on, John Martyn , Lux Interior, Ken Outram the out of control organ player at our local tea dances, all gone in a week.
What are we being left with?
People who live and breathe music are on their way out. Charlatans and fast buck merchants survive.....

Oh man. I was hoping it was just something about January...but it looks like it's gonna be a bad year. My misspent youth is dying all around me :cry:

Rave on, Lux...

(Somebody at Billboard needs to check their math, though - how one could be born in 1946 and die in 2009 at 52 puzzles me somewhat...)

OMG!!
Sad.

He was a mentalist.
I remember seeing them on the Date With Elvis tour in Brighton.
I was with a friend who had the driest sense of humour I've ever come across.
For the encore, Lux crawled onto the stage & stuck the mic into a plastic beer glass & proceeded to smash it up.
The noise out of the PA stacks was awful.
After a minute or two of the cracking plastic noise at eardrum shattering levels, my friend turned to me & said, "I think this is a new one".

RIP.

:cry:
Cheers.

So long Lux. Enjoy the ultimate "date with Elvis", and thanks for all the good stuff. :notworthy:
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

R.I.P. Lux will be sadly missed. I loved the first few Cramps albums. A brilliant band, and a sad loss to music.
