Video: Geoffrey Krozier Kongress at Max's Kansas City, Halloween 1976

Want to see something weird? Of course you do.

A gentleman by the name of Otto von Ruggins has uploaded a series of amazingly bizarre musical performances onto Vimeo. None of them are described, and you're mostly left to your own devices to discover as to what you're viewing -- which stands to reason, as the man is self-described as "Master of The Unheard Øf." Thanks to some explanatory tags, I've sussed out the following: this a Halloween performance from an Australian musician by the name of Geoffrey Krozier at Max's Kansas City on Halloween in 1976.

Krozier was evidently known as the "High Priest of Magick." A crazy-as-hell story about a dude who somehow combines the best parts of Moondog and G.G. Allin can be found over at Dunkworld. If you go here, you can see all 7 videos, and it looks like it's an entire performance. Freak OUT, kids.

Thanks for digging this up. The other videos are ridiculous and amazing. Be sure and check out the Nelson-Atkins Fall Electromediascope series. On 9/11 they play NYC underground music scene vids from 60's and 70's by Steina and Woody Vasulka.
