If you ask him, "What consistently incites your lust for life?" he will say "making stuff." He is devoted to creating writing, music, and shows.
More than that, he regards every moment, whether it's conversing with the clerk at the 7-Eleven or riding his mountain bike up a steep dirt path or lovingly meditating in his riotous sanctuary, as a new opportunity to add to and refine the work of art that encompasses all the rest: the performance art piece that is his life.
In addition to writing books, Brezsny is a singer-songwriter who has created five music albums. Three were with the band World Entertainment War. Bill Graham, one of rock's top impresarios, managed the band until his death. World Entertainment War's CD, "Give Too Much," serves as the soundtrack for Brezsny's book, "Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia."
Brezsny has performed in more than 700 shows, from intimate performance art venues to giant rock concerts. The story of his life in music is recounted in his book, "The Televisionary Oracle."
These days, he periodically performs a solo show called the "Sacred Uproar." It's a pagan revival extravaganza featuring rowdy prayers, insurrectionary incantations, tender rants, praise songs, chaotic meditations, ritual antics, musical elixirs, and Dionysian sermons.view less
