Brett Callwood Writes: Porno For Pyros Forever

Brett Callwood

Porno for Pyros: a beloved band whose music has withstood the test of time for many. L.A. Weekly Music Editor Brett Callwood reminisces on the band’s journey after enjoying their most recent show. “The gig at the Belasco in Downtown L.A. on Thursday night felt much more like an event than a regular concert,” writes Callwood. “In some ways, it recalled the glorious underground celebration that was early Lollapalooza, Jim Rose Circus Sideshow and all.”

“The stage and indeed the crowd was a glorious sea of drag queens and assorted dancers,” he continues. “Men on stilts with oversized guitars. Angels. Devils. The night was dubbed Heaven After Dark, and the MC for the evening told us that it is indeed a little slice of heaven. It certainly felt like that, and that was a much needed feeling in the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent horseshit, plus COVID, Trump and everything else. Heaven will do just fine thank you Perry.”
