Not only do I feel fortunate to have seen the Cramps live many times, but I had the pleasure of meeting him and his wife at a screening of "The Tingler" in Glendale and they were so nice and fun to chat with. I still have the program that they signed for me (um... yes, it is framed and hanging over my bed - next to my signed pics of Forrey Ackerman and Vampira, who have also made the transition fairly recently, weird) - there was a silhouette of Wm Castle on the front and he drew a little horn on his head. What a sweet man and a great and talented showman. I really don't get choked up over these types of things, but Lux dying hit me pretty hard.
