Is it really 25 years?

Vladimir's Universe actually began earlier than 1987, but that is when I first appeared on the stage at Cross Street Station with Jimigator on drums. I made earlier recordings that were mostly sound sculptures, musique concrete, poetry, and music composed on my Commodore 64.

The last time we played Cross Street Station was in 1990 when I took the train to the San Francisco Bay area and stayed for 2 years. The last stage performance was in 1992 in Oakland, CA with a group of musicians calling themselves "Jack's Dad" made up of Ron Wells' sidemen from The Rubbles.

A Cross Street Station reunion at Ypsilanti's Corner Brewery in 2010 found me singing a few of the old songs.
