I picked up a flier in Detroit in 1999 where the Kooky
Scientist was to be performing a Live PA at a party.
A week later Fred Giannelli posted here that he would
not be performing in Detroit at that time, no matter
what had been read locally. I don't remember if he
had a falling out with the promoter or if they just
used his name, but I do remember that the flier was
out more than a month before the party...so i lean
toward the latter.
