Description
The Alpha Centuarii Herald calls Zolar X “the now sound…easily the most popular band in five parsecs…”; Yet this retro space age proto-new wave band’s fate began not in the stars, but at the San Lorenzo Community Center some 37 years ago. Mocked as weirdoes dressed like Vulcans, they headed to LA, where eccentrics are welcomed, as long as they can sing and dance. Part of that nebulous ball of gas that was punk, Zolar X was the house band at Mountain View expatriate Rodney Bingleheimer’s English Disco. They enjoyed a brief heyday before going into hyperslumber for some years. Now reformed, Plutonian elf Ygarr Ygarrist, Romm Eclipse, Raidia Visual X, Moto Bass Unit and Zory Zenith will reconstruct the beat that allowed them to share the stage with Iggy and the Stooges once. Space Theater opens. - Richard von Busack sanjose.comMore Info
