“It was strange
actually, that Erickson – in stark contrast to all others on stage – had very
little energy to spare besides that which was focused on singing the twisted,
poetic lyrics of the band. At times he would stand still, only gazing at the
crowd – and yet somehow he seemed endearing and captivating as if his sheer
presence was enough to overwhelm the crowd.”

Kastaniegaard Vinberg om The 13th Floor Elevators 50 års reunion-koncert ved
Levitation 2015/Austin Psych Fest på Rockfreaks.net. Festivalen fandt sted for
ottende gang i dagene 8. – 10. maj. Og endnu en gang var line-uppen ganske enkelt
overvældende. Læs Vinbergs sobre reportage/anmeldelse/gennemgang af festivalen.
Hele reunion-showet med The 13th
Floor Elevators:
Med det på plads, så ville jeg
også gerne have overværet Willie Thrashers og Linda Saddlebacks optræden. Flere
vil sikkert huske Willie Thrasher, som plademærket Light In The Attic gravede
frem fra glemslen til 2014-compilationen, ’Native North America (Vol. 1):
Aboriginal Folk, Rock, and Country 1966-1985’.
