Kim Fowley & The Lost SXSW Pix Kim Fowley met various bands @ SXSW . . . yes, I had their pictures-posters-flyers on an earier version of this blog. . . but once again I had problems with a part time email "genius". . . who somehow "lost?"-"misplaced?"-"deleted?" these SXSW artifacts. My apologies to you if you were once on this blog/bulletin and no longer find you self here. Please re-send this missing material. . . or pix of us together so you can join the rest of us on this profile. . . the only band picture that survived the "mistake" is below. You'll be pleased to know that Richard Rogers, mixing-audio engineer-multi-instumentalist from the Inland Empire, is here in my lifeboat, trying to find a safe harbor. . . Richard joins my other International Cyberspace Team. . . who are currently helping me in Re-building my damaged Internet/Cyberspace World. . .that ceased to function on Febuary 3rd, 2008 when a previous co-worker decided to go elsewhere. . .leaving me drifting in a Sea Of Confusion. . .minus Codes-Files-Passwords-Visual Equipment-Accounting Components etc. As you probably guessed, Kim Fowley is Computer Challenged . . .hence my lack of constant clarity online. It doesn't help that I've been bootlegged by unknown "Humans". . . who took it upon themselves to build un-authorized Fan Sites, that are based on two different bands, I used to be in. Hopefully,
this confused situation can be fixed. Meanwhile, enjoy the only
band that survived the latest "Inter-Office Human Error"!

June 1, 2008 - Sunday Kim Fowley Superstar!!!
Hello Friends, This is Kim Fowley Superstar a.k.a. The Real Kim Fowley, Kim Fowley and various other Myspace Identities such as...Dollboy, Car Pool, Jukebox California, Crimson Dirt Machine Movies, Crimson Dirt Machine Music, Death Cat, Outlaws in America Drama Club, Satan of Silverlake, Vultures in the Sky and Video Jam Entertainment.
On Feb 3, 2008...The 49th Year Anniversary of leaving home in West L.A. and running away to Hollywood USA...The following event happened. I lost control of the above listed identities for a while on Myspace. The result of difficulties/mis-understandings with a former co-worker.
I have found new co-workers to reconstruct and reinterpret my unique content. I hope this delay in Empire Re-Organization has not interfered with your continuous support of my Multi-Showbiz Activities.
As you may already know I am controversial and make enemies easily and often. This is NOT the first time...and certainly NOT the last time that someone will choose to derail my survival patterns. I am picking up and fixing the broken pieces of this latest unwelcome interference...of my rendezvous with destiny. Thank you for your prayers and good wishes. You may send me once again any comments, news flashes about your recent activities and please... send me suggestions of which Dreams and Nightmares you wish to see and hear about.[I AM: KF SUPERSTAR!]
I am STILL on Underground Garage 25 each weekend on Sirius Satellite Radio. Yes, I've been renewed for one MORE year! To my friends and fans: I am happy to announce that i just received word from Budapest, Hungary that their biggest cell phone company is using my voice, song and production in a brand new 2008 commercial. Additionally Joan Jett and I have one of our songs licensed for 2 separate upcoming Hollywood films. By the time you read this I will be either on my way, attending...or returning from SXSW in Austin, Texas. Hopefully I will meet you, be meeting you or have met you during this fun filled music & movie event that is always "Wild In The Streets". I AM KIM FOWLEY SUPERSTAR: I SHALL RETURN!

January 3, 2008 - Thursday WINTER WONDERLAND CONFIDENTIAL Kim Fowley had a great Winter Wonderland Party Experience during the Holiday Season - Gary Stewart opened his Music Museum / Home to hordes of So Cal Vinyl Freaks as well as members of the A&R, Publishing and Legal Communities. The next Skin Game was a Hollywood Bondage Event @ the Henry Fonda Theatre AKA the Music Box on Hollywood Blvd. In the tradition of Dustin Hoffman (Tootsie) and Robin Williams (Mrs Doubtfire), KF wore his Blue Dress over Austrian Winter Underwear. I am predicting that 18-year-old Heidi Core is a Super Model Star of Tomorrow. My Underground Garage Mentor, Little Steven sent me the best Xmas Card ever as pictured below. The Holiday Season would not have been complete unless an album hurled out of the chute with a Kim Fowley-written song on it. Thank you Friggs and producer
Ben Vaughn for capturing my song, Watch Debi's performance here! My Ed Wood-influenced Latest Movie Victory, DOLLBOY: The Movie continues to excite Youtube viewers.
