TURAHTAN (Rock Opera)
Once upon a time, in the Soviet Union, a young hipster met a sorcerer. They became friends and often drank together, but after a fight, the sorcerer cursed the young man, turning him into a large white bird. Confused and lost, the hipster didn’t know what to do. His denim suit hung loosely on him, feathers sticking out of the sleeves. His friends no longer recognised him.
He eventually found refuge with a little-known writer of a book about Arthur Brown. This writer, also a hipster and fan of Galactic Zoo Dossier, was a mystic who drank heavily. One day, he believed, he received a message from space, questioning why Arthur Brown hadn’t continued Galactic Zoo and instead pursued pop music. This, according to the message, was a threat to the universe.
The writer urged the bird-man to deliver this message to Arthur Brown immediately. Though the journey would be dangerous, the young hipster took off early one cold, rainy morning. At first, the flight went smoothly, and he soared above the clouds. But soon, he became lost in time. The sorcerer’s curse had warped the etheric fields of his astral body, trapping him in a twisted space where time stood still.
The message never arrived, and a universal catastrophe became inevitable.
