ALIEN ABDUCTION... Last seen at Space Ritual's Inn on the Green gig, this bug-eyed beauty shines with an inner light but has become separated from its body, and reportedly left the venue in the company of an unknown Earthling... if you know the whereabouts of this interplanetary Ichabod Crane, please either contact us to arrange a tearful reunion, or bring it to the venue! (No questions asked.) Crash landing in Australia years ago, it has since travelled the globe attending numerous space rock concerts, being invited on stage by such luminaries as Gong; its presence is sorely missed...
