TWO WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS RE-ISSUES

In 1980, Genesis P-Orridge and Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson of (then-) Throbbing Gristle travelled to New York City to meet up at the fortified apartment, known as The Bunker, of famed beat writer and cultural pioneer William S. Burroughs and his executor James Grauerholz. Genesis and Sleazy started the daunting task of compiling the experimental sound works of Burroughs, which, up until that point, had never been widely heard.

Break Through In Grey Room documents William S.Burroughs during his time in Europe and England, working with Ian Sommerville on recording with the ‘cut-up’ technique. Sommerville’s technical background enabled him to contribute to the early development of sound-and-light shows in London, leading to work with gear provided by Paul McCartney in an apartment owned by Ringo Starr. For the 2023 reissue, Dais Records has collaborated with the Estate of William S. Burroughs on reissuing the album on vinyl and compact disc, fully remastered by mastering engineer Josh Bonati.

Psychology Of Serial Killers

The Psychology of Serial Killers and Why They Captivate Us, hosted by Dr. Scott Bonn, one of the world’s leading experts on criminal behavior, is coming to Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts on Friday, May 12 at 8 p.m. Lobby and bar concessions open at 7 p.m. Tickets range between $45-$65 incl. fees. Purchase online at PatchogueTheatre.org or at the Box Office, (631) 207-1313, 71 East Main Street in Patchogue. Audiences can expect to learn what motivates these monster criminals, hear chilling insights into these deviant minds, and the truth behind the headlines.

“The Psychology of Serial Killers is not your average show. It will uncover the many mysteries behind this unnerving topic. Audiences will leave the theater with a greater understanding of what makes these criminals do what they do. We will also learn something out ourselves – why are we so interested in the likes of Dahmer, Gacy, Rader and others?

Right Angle Entertainment produced this tour designed for both the true crime fan and anyone interested in this topic. It will educate and enthrall.” –says Alison Spiriti, Executive Producer, Right Angle Entertainment.

Storm Large Is Back At Staller

A force to be reckoned with, Storm Large returns for her third outing at the Staller Center, Saturday March 18th at 8 p.m., poised to blow the audience away with her “wintoxicating and unmissable cocktail of power and vulnerability.” (The Times London)

Storm Large first came to popular attention in 2006, as a contestant on Rock Star: Supernova. Since then, the singular artist has been dominating venues across America, bringing with her original music and interpretations of classics whose might and boldness deliver something unlike anything you’ve ever heard. It was these performances that led The Times (London) to call Large “an intoxicating and unmissable cocktail of power and vulnerability.”

Wholly original and unlike any other performer working today, Large has lived up to her last name, with a larger-than-life persona and talent of the highest caliber. Having moved sold-out audiences to thunderous applause in her last two outings at the Staller Center, Large returns for another evening of music, mischief, and mayhem.
