Just heard about two interesting music fests :

Jim O'Rourke is booking the"New Music Series" shows for the month of April at Tonic . I saw his band open for Stereo Lab (forget them), he plays guitar like John Fayhe and laptop like Eno. Jim seams to be Thurstons darlin' du jour but please dont let that put you off, besides you can stop by and say hey to J and MB enroute. Of particular note is Daniel Johnston on 4/18.


QUINTRON ALERT!!! :

"The other is a three day goofball fest in our own bklyn."

Beer and Sausage at the Polish National Home

New York, NY—March 19, 2000 Red Stone Sound Productions presents “Beer and Sausage at the Polish National Home,” a three-day festival of experimental music to be held in Greenpoint, exciting musical event in Brooklyn this year.

For those unfamiliar with the Polish National Home, it is easily accessible from the G train Nassau Ave. stop. Facilities include a ballroom with high ceilings, a great stage, a balcony and massive oil paintings. Of course, having the Polish National Home as host to this event also has its culinary advantages. Food will include pierogies, kielbasa, meatballs and all the beer a rational human can swallow. Ticket prices are $13 advance purchase, $15 “night of” and $35 for a 3-day pass; they can be purchased at Other Music (15 East 4th St.), Earwax Records (Bedford Ave. in Williamsburg, Brooklyn), or by calling (212) 252-6800 on or after April 1st.
