Are you Man or Astro-Man?!?!?!?!

[Spox]

Man or AstroMan? and Servotron gigs were always a blast. I did a brief stint in Japancakes, and we spent a couple of weeks opening for Servotron around the SE and man, was it a hoot. Wonderfully weird, no drugs required.

Don't see these guys around enough.

Great band.

Saw them once in PDX

I was very impressed with a great live show including a flaming space helmet.

Not sure still if they are Man or Asto-Man but the lead singer did finish the show with a quick thank you then down off the stage into the crowd.

I have seen a lot of shows and rare is it a performer that is willing and able to leave through the crowd.

It left an indelible blot of awe on my brain.

Sounds very like “Nero and the Gladiators” a band from the early 60’s!

Not that's how you break the first TDPRI post seal!

Rob DelBueno (aka Coco the Electronic Monkey Wizard), at the left, has been playing bass with Atlanta’s Subsonics for years. They are a great band.

I saw them twice in the Netherlands in '94.
The second time my mate and I improvised some space suits and ray guns and painted ourselves green 'Coco' spotted us in the crowd and loved it so we were dragged up on stage for a couple of numbers. That was at the old Doornrosje in Nijmegan Their show was wild.

The closest thing today I can think of would be perhaps Messer Chups.
Is Goth-Surf a recognised thing?

Oh man, this is a zombie thread - I read the first couple of posts and got excited thinking they were touring!

 

[ElJay370]

I went with a buddy to go see them around 97-98 knowing absolutely nothing about them.

I was not prepared for them to rock as hard as they did.

 

[Dostradamas]

It is not a zombie thread.

It is an Astroman from the past thread

I got a used CD in a used CD store. It was pure gold. I do not know the album title because whoever sold the CD to the store put it in the wrong jewel case. I love this band!
