Thank you for supporting our little band this year. 2025 marks our 40-yr anniversary (including a 25-yr hiatus) so we have a few things up our sleeve because, now more than ever, music is important. Create. Defy. Subvert. Survive. See you in ‘25… and Hide from your leader. Long live the #newwavers

Tonight in 1986 Basic Elements opened for The Bolshoi in PHX, AZ. Wish we had video or photos from that night but this flyer is all that remains. Still got lots of fans out there @thebolshoibrothers.bsky.social. Please come to Los Angeles. We'll gladly open for y’all again • Long live #thenewwavers

Archival Phoenix Finds • The Sugarcubes in a hotel ballroom on Valentine’s Day, Eddie Murphy’s “Raw” tour, U2 + lots of Duran Duran, Police, Thompson Twins buttons, Keith Haring’s Pop Shop, a jewel encrusted lion pin I wore on stage + a cassette that might have unheard B.E. Long live the #newwavers

Today’s my Sammy Hagar Day— “55!” • Thank you for sharing this time and space with me • If, like me, you worry about what’s ahead, fill your days with joy, and create works that speak Truth, and your mere existence is an act of beautiful defiance against any foe— even time. Long live the #newwavers

Nov. 16, 2019 • It’s not that it’s been 5yrs since our reunion, it’s how much shit’s gone down since. I’m not the same man. We’re not the same band. Nothing will ever be the same. But life isn’t meant to stay put. If you were there, I love you. If you’re still here, thank you & Hide from your leader
