Mike Siegel, the progressive Democrat running for a congressional seat that spans Roky Erickson's old turf from Austin to Houston, is too young to have experienced the 13th Floor Elevators in person but when Roky passed away on Friday he told me that "Roky’s departure will be felt deeply here in Austin. My wife Hindatu, a veterinarian by trade, is in a local singing group [Panoramic Voices] that had the honor of performing with Roky just a couple months ago.
