Tuxedomoon - Live in NYC - Sept. 17, 2008

From the Press Release:

Usually more visible along the coast of the Mediterranean or the Baltic, legendary band Tuxedomoon will be making a rare appearance stateside in New York City for one show only at Le Poisson Rouge - a brand new multimedia art cabaret founded on the former site of the historic Village Gate.


Don't expect to see them repeat poses from their youth as Tuxedomoon seldom look back and, if so, more often than not, choose to refine and distort their past in terms concurrent with their muses of the moment. No room for '80s nostalgia here, their recent compositions feature a wide and surprising variety of styles, influences and themes gathered along their varied journey through space and time. Appearances of Tuxedomoon in the USA are unusual occurrences, there having been only 4 others in the last 21 years.


If you're in that part of the world, come witness this unique event.


Tuxedomoon, Gutbucket,

life on over ride

Its off to NYC for a survey of the surrounding area-- various haunts in lower Manhattan and such -- and the meet some friend for dinner and off to the Knitting Factory to see Tuxedomoon play. I'll be back in Boston on Thursday afternoon.

Homage a Tuxedomoon - tonight

Tonight is my last radio show before the Tuxedomoon show at the Knitting Factory in New York City on Wednesday, March 30, 2005. Therefore, I will devote the 2 1/2 hours of my show to their music, including side-projects and solo careers. I realize I will barely scratch the surface of their output, but it will make for a lively show. I've heard excellent reviews of their recent live shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles. I've been playing their music on the air for about 11 years now but have never seen them live -- so the live experience is especially anticipated. I do hope you're able to tune in tonight, despite the fact that my show is starting at some time after 7:30pm. Access via the internet can also be found at: www.wzbc.org
