Will be back shortly with more thrash....Until then:

I have been moving all week and just moved in and got connected to the internet. I still have virtually no furniture and nothing set up so mp3 updates will be back in a little while. Until then here's a hilarious video by one of USSR's great "export" rock bands - GORKY PARK (Gorky park, named after the writer Maksim Gorky is a big park in the center of Moscow, very popular with Moscovites). GP the band were a pretty slick glam/hair rock type band that sounded a lot like Poison, Leppard, etc. Apparently this video was a big hit on MTV in '89. All the devotchkas loved them. BANG! Promoting US/USSR peace and friendship. Note the balalaika.
