El Vez kicks up a racket. (All Cat Rose photos)

Whooooh!!!
Yes, it was The Little Richards time with a big ol' helping of lasagna and a bevy of meatballs thrown into the mix for extra-spicy Sunday rockin'.
El Vez and The Schizophonics tore it up to the hilt on the afternoon of Aug. 23 to celebrate Bizzarro Italian Cafe's 40th anniversary on a small outdoor stage in Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood.
It was all LR tunes on this day, from "Keep a Knockin'" to "Lucille" to "Good Golly, Miss Molly" to "Tutti-Frutti" and more. Guest singers Kurt Bloch, Mark Arm and others gave the songs an extra punch during parts of the 14-song set.
We'll never know how that stage survived the stompin', chaotic scene. Just when you thought there wouldn't be enough room for the raucous rockers to unleash their full-on physicality and ferocity -- it happened, and 1,000-fucking fold to boot. A curtain surrounding the stage even fell victim to the fray as it took a fall as the band raged on and the crowd ate up the whole scene.
