I couldn't resist.
He was the singer with Texan psych-rock legends the 13th Floor Elevators. They were the first band to use the term 'psychedelic rock' and made some demented but groundbreaking records in the mid-late 60s.

Erickson then went mental as his gigantic LSD use conspired with the inherent lunacy in his family (his mother is a fucking fruitcake): he ended up in a max security loony bin and has been fucked ever since.

He recorded some excellent new waveish/punky rock stuff in the late 70s but was effectively a vegetable until 2008 when his little brother took control of his life and made him take medication.

The end result is a tour that would have been inconceivable two years ago.

I am a big fan of medication - thinking about it I might have a diazepam now to cheer myself up.
Although they nicked some of those from my desk too - luckily I have stashes everywhere.
