Here's another set from last week's SXSW showcase, this one from London's elusive post-punk legends The Homosexuals. A lot of the mystery that once surrounded the group has been cleared up in the past few years. Their previously rare and unreleased late 70s/early 80s recordings are now available in digital form. And frontman Bruno Wizard, who was once bent on destroying some of that material, is now looking to release more of them. He's also revived the Homosexuals live set.
Bruno took the stage in Austin backed by fans Dave Siegel and Travis Harrison of Unsacred Hearts along with Apache Beat members Mike Dos Santos and Philip Aceto. Bruno had much wisdom to impart to his young disciples as the group launched into a set of classic, action-packed Homosexuals songs. For Bruno's unedited stage banter, snag the complete set...photo credit: Trent

Bruno Wizard has departed NYC.. and my couch which he slept on all day before venturing out all night every night he was in town. He requested that WFMU link to his web site.
