Impossible Crush ⭐️
Formed on the timeless byroads between love and desecration, Impossible Crush is the greatest art punk elf rock gothabilly glam band ever to crawl the earth. Their original musical compositions are prayers to the fairies, with songs joyous and lamentful, heavily rocking, atmospheric, and theatrical. With tunes such as “Lamentation of Elipsis’ Dreamthing,” “It’s Elf Itself,” and “Everybody is an Asshole (Let the Artists Die),” interspersed with witty banter, mystic/surreal poetry, and visual displays, we are sure to be a hit with fans of Rocky Horror and the proto punk bands of the 60’s and 70’s. Our influences include The Cramps, Yoko Ono, The Modern Lovers, Sisters of Mercy, and Patti Smith Group. Some songs will be sung in partial Elvish, with translation provided for non-elvish speaking guests.
Zack Fuller (guitar and vocals, words and music), Jamie Ross (bass) John P. McGowan (drums)

The Shivastan Poetry Ashram is a community based independent book shop, art gallery, giftshop & grassroots co-operative promoting poetry, friendship, wisdom & compassion for all beings located in central Woodstock NY. We are usually OPEN 1 to 6 pm everyday at 6 Sgt Richard Quinn Drive Woodstock NY - the bright orange cabin behind The Mothership ⭐️ please stop by any afternoon & browse the thousands of new, used & rare books; art & oddities; unusual jewelry, crafts & gifts from India & Nepal.
Frequent gatherings involve an outdoor sunset bonfire in a beautiful secret garden; an informal poetry/music/story sharing circle; & usually a vegetarian potluck.
The Woodstock Shivastan Poetry Ashram was started by poet & publisher Shiv Mirabito - it is loosely based on Ed Sanders' LES community Peace Eye Bookshop, Allen Ginsberg's Cherry Valley Committee on Poetry, & Angus Maclise & Ira Cohen’s Spirit Catcher Bookshop on Freak Street in Kathmandu. It is the home base of the small press Shivastan Press {Woodstock~Kathmandu} which has published limited edition poetry chapbooks & broadsides on handmade paper in Nepal since 1997 by some of the most exciting poets in America. It is our 29th anniversary this year!
