Poster for "The Creosote  Nightgown"

The files hold some alarming stuff. Take this handout for Ben's casino rock band in Lake Tahoe.  The hairdo —trust me—is a step up from his cruise ship white-boy fro. I am wondering what the playlist might have been. (Somewhere in the back depths of one of my scores of closets there will be a cassette tape.) You can be absolutely sure that it was a cover band.
  As for Blanca Uribe and the Creosote Nightgown, the band was a conceptual piece (ie total fabrication) by my college boyfriend. The far-out catchphrases should make carbon dating of this artifact a cinch.
