Crank Sturgeon Live at Object Space Spokane 4.12.11.MOV

Maine's own mesmerizing Crank Sturgeon. I have a been a huge fan since I first saw him in 2007. Since Sparkle Girl is all about utilizing the means of production to express yourself through sound it was hard not to fall for a guy who builds insanely wacked out electrical gizmos and then has them for sale at the merch table. When he wrote to say he and Matt Taggert were touring again I was thrilled enough to see him (them ) again but to to get open for this guy was an incredible joy. For my friend Kentaro, who transported us from Moscow to Spokane, it was his introduction to noise shows and he went away with several of Crank's devices. This is a a great performance where Crank goes to some interesting places. I found it greatly affecting and cathartic. Filmed by Sparkle Girl.
