JELLY WALL EYES PACK (JWEP) was the house lightshow at a Houston,
Texas club called "Love Street Light Circus and Feel
Good Machine".
Love Street featured a "Total Psychedelic Environment"
with live bands, go-go dancers, and lighting effects on all
the walls.
The lightshow equipment was installed on a narrow balcony
above a padded "zonk out" area directly in front
of the stage.
I,
Greg Lloyd (aka Wizard), started working with JWEP in 1967.
The other JWEP team members were: Cliff Carlin, Jr., Larry
McBee, Steve Hall, and Mike Wilson. There were also occasional
part-timers and volunteers.
JWEP's
primary equipment consisted of 2 slide projectors and four
overhead projectors. We also used mirror balls, color wheels,
strobe lights, and special "flaps" on the overheads
to strobe the liquid images.
We
did club shows with: Johnny Winters,
The Nazz, Lightnin' Hopkins, Naked Letus, Children, Shiva's
Headband, Bubble Puppy, Moving Sidewalks (featuring
Billy Gibbons, who's now with ZZ Top)
and many more.
We
did road-show concerts in Texas with: The
Grateful Dead, It's A Beautiful Day, Quicksilver
Messenger Service and John
Mayall.
I'm
an illustrator, so I also created the weekly psychedelic
posters for Love Street, which I've recently learned are
now collectibles!
