Cultists getting on down are very sad

Way back at the beginning of the universe, after the first tick of time, a being called 'Arp Cola' invented music. That being was reincarnated many times, but in 1986, was occupying the body of 75 year old cult guru, L Ron Hubbard. At least, this is what the scientologists were told.

Imagine an elderly man convinced that he has figured out the secrets of modern rock music. What would it sound like? Well, regardless of whether he really figured out the inner secrets of music, it sounds like your grandad.

Grandad's 'pop' music was then performed by a bunch of low-rent scientology celebrities, such as Frank Stallone and Leif Garrett (who is now believed to be an ex-scientologist, thankfully).

The result is predictably appalling. This concert is worth checking out just to educate you that scientology is replete with its own naked emperors.
