Edito de OMNESIARock and Roll Sex Theatre: Omnesia, X Rated Porno Machine and The Zoopy Show flog Blakes On Telegraph January 26, 2007 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SAN FRANCISCO, CA Kid Glove Entertainment announced today that Bay Area indie band Omnesia headlines a theatrical and wicked night of debauchery in the dungeon at Blake s On Telegraph with X Rated Porno Machine and The Zoopy Show on Saturday, February 17th. Rock concerts aren t just about lining up three great bands for a show, affirms promoter Scary Gary of KGE Presents. A live show needs to be an electrically charged event with a sonic and visual focus. In the end, rock and roll is about sex and attitude, danger and dark unpredictability. It s not four sad guys in t-shirts staring at the ground internalizing their emotions. These are three tight, strutting East Bay bands with a dark theatrical focus that create energy and euphoria. These acts don t hesitate to take on the audience. This isn t Valentine s Day and candy for your girl. This is sex with strangers that hurts and feels good at the same time. These three bands are indeed united in their quest for sex and pain, admitted Omnesia guitarist M2, but how they get there is all over the bedroom and basement. X Rated Porno Machine pounds out hard hot rock while two cheerleader dominatrixes rip people out of the crowd and perform unspeakable acts of bondage. The Zoopy show features creatures from Planet Zoopy who converted a nun s convent in South America into Go-Go dancers and their spaceship into music instruments; a Japanese anime costumed gang that spins a seductive blend of Pop, Punk, Disco, and Hyphy. These guys used to be Ken Kesey s house band when his Merry Pranksters got together to decimate the medicine cabinet. And we never know if our singer is going to show up as a boy or girl or something wantonly both or neither. Scary Gary believes that his security team will earn their paycheck that night keeping musicians and their libidos within the limits of Berkeley city ordinances. We suspect that these bands and selected audience members will end up somewhere in an alley fornicating madly while channeling Trent Reznor and Traci Lords. Doors open at 9 pm, and there is absolutely no way under any circumstances that anyone under the tender age of 18 will be allowed to venture downstairs, said Scary Gary. This is not a show for minors. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased online at Ticket Web About OMNESIA OMNESIA is a dark high energy indie rock band from San Francisco, CA.

Upon encountering the aliens, the nuns are suddenly transformed into fabulously outfitted cheerleader Go-Go dancers known as The Zoopy Girls. The Zoopy monsters turn the remnants of their ship into musical instruments and commence the "rocktronicle conversion" of the desperate earth.
