While looking for a photo of Shelter I stumbled across an archive of Krishna magazine, "Back To Godhead" that featured this interesting 1994 article from Bhakta Vic better known as Vic Dicara (guitarist for Beyond, Inside Out, 108, Shelter, Burn) about turning Krishna and joining Shelter. Also an article from a female Krishna devotee on tour with Shelter. I gotta say reading about the whole experience really freaks me out. I wonder how many hardcore kids were brainwashed into joining Krishna temples during this period?
Below is, at times, a hilarious collection of video clips for Shelter. The longer the band went on, the worse it really got..
