An After-Bash Note From Christophe

  It's hard for me to write this. My brain is full of static. I put this off several days because of that...

 We just finished our sixth year doing Christmas shows. It's gotten bigger and better every year. I put so much of myself into this. It's been the most important thing I've had going on for a while now. I announced my retirement from live performing at the beginning of the year and the bash was my final performance. Bittersweet. Still didn't have things the way I want them... but, for what it was, it was good.

 As with any big show, I really get into my head afterwords. I don't really have friends to talk to. People I can share with. I suffer from a list of things including severe depression. It always gets worse during this season. That's part of why I do this show. So people with similar feelings have somewhere to go, to let loose and unwind... Somewhere they can go and get a gift and maybe have Christmas feel a little bit like it did when we were still children... if for a brief moment. Afterwords everything begins to crash down for me. I keep trying to pull through for everyone. For my family, my cat and my birds. 

 This year, it seems like a few people really "got" what I was trying to do. There were some nice compliments online and I'll share one below. These make me want to try this again. I want to make it through another year and come back to perform for Christmas again. I hope I can and I hope I'll see everyone there again.

- Christophe

 This post really made me feel. I wept when I read it. My friend Ana Gram posted this on Facebook along with a video of one of the songs from my set. See the original post here: https://fb.watch/hzJeyTSWeI/ 

"Last night was the 6th annual Xmas Day Bash, put on by Christophe Murdock and Darlington. If you've never been to one of these shows, ya gotta. These two put these shows on every year. They wrap dozens of gifts, and make sure every single person who walks through the door gets a present. Everyone gets a hug and something to eat. This might seem kinda normal for the season, but it isn't, really.

For some of us, this is all the holidays we have. There's no family. There's no traditions. For some, no home. All we have is eachother and that means *everything*. Christophe and Darlington have made sure all us punk kids here in OKC have had *something*, every year for the last six years. This is what community looks like. This is what scene feels like. It doesn't matter what body you're in or where you came from. We're connected through the music, art and each other, and everyone's welcome. Everyone's safe. Everyone's protected.

I know that people often associate punk with scary things and anarchy, but I gotta say, if you had been in the room when everyone walked in and saw a hundred hand cut snowflakes hanging from the ceiling and a 9 foot tall tree, you might question that. It was babes in Toyland! The smiles. The joy. Even my jaded heart had to love Christmas a little today.

This is a video I took last nignt of when the snowball fight happened on stage. The snowball fight was *still going* an hour later, and is one of my most favorite things to ever happen at a live show on stage. Ever, and I've been to so many shows I forget I've actually seen the band I've "always wanted to see" on a regular basis, so that says a lot.

Thank you, Christophe and Darlington for all your hard work, for the bands that came out and played, Kinda Creepy, Christophe and the Love Donations, Darlington and Psychotic Reaction for a great show and for giving all of us a space to come together, be as we are, be accepted and feel wanted. After all, the most rebellious thing a person can do in this day and age is be happy and share love in spite of everything. "

Bill & Ted Day 2022 Photos

  Our 3rd Annual Bill & Ted Day Party ended up being a blast. Biggest one yet. I gave away packs of Bill & Ted Trading Cards with the door entry. We had a door raffle for a signed Bill & Ted VooDoodz Art Print and a copy of Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey #1 Comic. The costume contest winners got a Ziggie Piggy T-Shirt and Bill & Ted Socks from Fright Rags. Finally with the air guitar contest we gave away a Bill & Ted Baseball Cap and the Bill & Ted Go To Hell Graphic Novel! Live music from touring act Cedars, locals Modern Issue and a final performance from Christophe and The Love Donations. It was definitely a great party. I was too busy to take pics and was unable to hire a photographer for this event, but I did get a couple pics sent to me. 

Here are a couple of our costume contest entrants!

Christophe's Latest Surgery

 I had another mild surgical procedure yesterday. It was really nothing, I was in and out in about an hour, but won't be out and about the scene for a few days. I had a cyst in my eyelid that they cut out. I'm positive it was not cancerous, but they sent it off for a biopsy anyway. There is some mild swelling and I only feel like someone punched me in the eye. Below are some pics for those interested.

Christophe's Surgery

  For about 25 years I've been walking around with this uncomfortable hunk of glass in my head. This happened when I was hit by a semi truck and my car exploded. I was about 18. One of the many things I got up and walked from like it was no big deal that is finally affecting me today. Yesterday I finally got it removed. Took some photos, which are below for those interested. I ended up putting it in a vial necklace to keep with me.

Christophe At The Filming Locations Of The Texas Chains Saw Massacre

  Took a weekend trip down to Texas to see some of the filming locations for Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Here's a few photos.


First up is Bagdad Cemetery in Leander, TX. This is where the opening cemetery scenes from the original were shot.







Next up are some shots from the infamous Gas Station, which is now a destination for fans. Killer BBQ, Some cabins for sleeping, tons of horror merch to buy and host of a fun convention every year.









Also visited the original house. It has been moved to Kingsland, TX and is now known as the Grand Central Cafe. It has been decorated with a Railyard theme and you can even stay the night in a converted caboose across the street. Upstairs you will Grandpa waiting to greet you and a few pics from the film. In the back at the bar you will meet up with Leatherface and can see a small photo shrine as well as pick up some TCM merch.


















I also visited The Bridge from the opening of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and The Mean Eyed Cat Bar which was the Cut Rite Chainsaws shop from part 2. They even had the shop scene playing on a constant loop at the bar.













Finally, I also stopped by the remake house in Granger, TX. Wasn't allowed on the property, but was still pretty cool.
