Reply to "Area"

Jeffery Strouth, as he recounts it in his twisted little indie movie _American Fabulous_, was one of Area's "window displays" namely the hookah-smoking catapillar--he also recounts sleeping in the back seat of James St. James' Camaro, using the catapillar suit as a sleeping bag (he seems to remember his display gig as being in January of some year, I'm guessing 1987). I'm still dead curious about Area's heyday (I'm guessing 1985-1988, is this right?), and the music--if it is indeed a "subject all it's own," I'd love to hear it talked about, since, pathetic little newbie that I am, I wasn't there. The song that i find most redolent of Jeffery's "white trash fabulousness" is "Justified and Ancient" by KLF feat. Tammy Wynette...is this a song that would have been heard at Area, or no?
