THE DEVIANTS STORY By Mick Farren
From MOJO Magazine October 1999
originally Published Under The Title "We Mean It Maaan! ****************************** SHALL WE BEGIN AT THE HIGH END... I Had Ingested Something. I Can't Quite Recall What. I'm Pretty Sure It Wasn't Acid More Likely Out Of Those Alphabet-Soup Fringe Psychedelics Ineptly Manufactured From Some Hellspawned Combination Of Nerve Gas And Horse Tranquilliser That Either Fried Your Mind Or Did Nothing At All. In This Case The Result Was To Make Me Paranoid And Jumpy And It Transformed Visuals Into The Cheap Colours Of A Japanese Monster Movie. Even Though The Discontent Among We Four Deviants Was By That Point Growing Like A Festering Boil We All Know That The Afternoon's Show In Hyde Park Was Significant And I Had Sworn That I'd Behave Myself. And So Being Plainly Drugged I Was Already Getting Some Dubious Looks Particularly From Guitarist Paul Rudolph And Head Roadie Boss Goodman. Continuation... 2 Norwegian Band Http //www.Nrk.No/urort/artist/thedeviants/default.Aspx
