A Perfectly Manic Monday Now Open Evenings Until 9 P.M.! I don’t know how many of you missed it, but Monday’s manic show with the Bangles and the Hoodoo Gurus at Enjoy A Sweet Slice O f Summer... the Arlington Theatre was undoubtedly far out. Finding a special place in the Bangles’ hearts wasn’t difficult, seeing as how their big-time American tour had begun and was now coming to a close here in Santa Barbara. Opening, the Hoodoo Gurus’ rockin’ psychotic on­ slaught of home-spun demented Aussie psychedelic pop proved extremely contagious. Slightly resembling the animal ensemble that rocks Disneyland’s America Sings with “ Ain’t Nothing but a Hound Dog” , the Hoodoo Gurus played a generous amount of songs from their latest album Mars Needs Guitars. Consisting of their college hits “ Bittersweet” , “ Poison Pen” ,“ Be my Guru” , and “ I Want You Back” , the Hoodoo Gurus’ awesome hour-long set came to a close with the ultrabitchin’ Bangles sauntering onstage to assist the Gurus with the necessary tamborines, chants, and go-go dancing during the climactic rendition of Gary Glitter’s “ Rock‘n’ Roll Part 2” . . Providing interesting between-set entertainment, the roadies for the bands took to the stage for a fifteen- minute jam session that resembled something along the Susannah Hoffs of the Bangles lines of the seventies Spinal Tap genre.
