Where: Knitting Factory

Type:

buy tickets now!ALL AGES8:00pm!$10 in advanceNervous Cabaret is what is meant by a tour de force. The Brooklyn/NYC based sextet boasts two drummers, intensely powerful bass rhythm, soaring horns and a wild throated open-heart on vocals. Their live performances are bloodily moving: by turns Ellington, Post punk Led Zeppelin, and vaudeville orchestra. The band´s sound crashes from violent to fragile in staggered stride, rips the heart out of the room only to offer it to the wallflower. If Trenchtown lay on the Bay of Bengal, was frequented by shipmates of Rimbaud and Conrad trafficking in amplifiers and amphetamines, Nervous Cabaret would serve as the house band in the last bar in the weirdest most lawless gin alley. Beat Circus ("Dreamland" CD RELEASE)Beat Circus was formed in 2002 by singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Brian Carpenter. His latest incarnation of Beat Circus delivers Weird American Gothic tales of children, dreams, fatherhood, revenge, redemption, and murder. In Summer 2006 Beat Circus began recording Dreamland, the first part of Brian Carpenter's Weird American Gothic trilogy, with legendary NY producer Martin Bisi (Sonic Youth, Foetus, Swans, The Dresden Dolls, Barbez). Dreamland is loosely based on historical events associated with turn-of-the-century New York and Coney Island, and will see a January 2008 release on Cuneiform Records. In Summer 2007 Brian Carpenter spawned the third incarnation of Beat Circus with a new concept and sound featuring violinist Käthe Hostetter, violist Jordan Voelker, guitarist/banjoist Andrew Stern, tubist Ron Caswell (Slavic Soul Party), trombonist Curtis Hasselbring (Golem), bassist/guitarist Paul Dilley (Reverend Glasseye, HUMANWINE), and drummer Ches Smith (Secret Chiefs 3, Xiu Xiu). HUMANWINE uses the imagery of bones, dirt, blood and rust to share the carefully composed allegorical tales. Each song add a 'patch' to 'The Quilt of Vinland', the entire catalog of HUMANWINE songs which are drawn from a mythical place they called 'Vinland', a land filled with a mindless cog populace, the terrible Not-Me, YerYerOwns a.k.a Abrogated Munificents seeking YerYer, Enjoyeurs, The Hordes, Villains (those from the villages) and a whole assortment of various shaped and sized creatures including ogres, beetles and missing seafarers who teach us a little lesson with every song. opener (tba)

Dottie Person was a mother of five living on the SUNY Maritime College campus in Throgs Neck, New York. In February, 2006, she was diagnosed with melanoma during her eighth month of pregnancy. Jack was born safe and sound and is the youngest of Dottie's five beautiful children who also include Elise, Caroline, Mary Katherine and Drew. Dottie died on April 2, 2007 at age 32. She died as an inspiration of faith, hope, and love. More importantly, she taught us how to live. Dottie walked the simple way of gratitude and encouraged us to "focus on present joy, not unknowns or what-ifs." Dottie's remarkable story of motherhood and love through overwhelming adversity has become a voice of hope that is touching more lives than she could have ever dreamed.

Type:

Not everyone has charisma. Not everyone leaves you better off than they found you. Comedian Bobby Collins has “it” and gives “it” to you. See for yourself why The New York Times called Bobby, “The most natural comedian, working today,” when Bobby performs at Comix April 17th through the 19th. Most recently Bobby penned A Live to laugh at, All the Things I Wish Someone Told Me as a Kid. He also just released his fourth CD: Bobby Collins - Mr. New York which was played as an XM Satellite Special and a brand new DVD: Bobby Collins Live. Early in his career Bobby accepted the baton from Rosie O’Donnell when she left VH1’s Stand Up Spotlight. With several cable comedy specials to his credit, Bobby has toured with Cher, Julio Iglesias, Dolly Parton and Tony Bennett, to name only a few. Topping Bobby’s first comedy CD On the Inside, his second and third CDs Out of Bounds and I Wanna Go Home were submitted for Grammy consideration. With live stage performances, feature film roles and talk show appearances too numerous to mention, there is no excuse for anyone to leave the planet without having benefited from exposure to Bobby’s brand of laughter as the best medicine! THU, APR 17 @ 8:00 PM FRI, APR 18 @ 8:30 & 10:45 PM SAT, APR 19 @ 8:30 PM & 10:45 PM Comix 353 West 14th Street New York, NY 10014 Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 the day of show plus a two item minimum and can be purchased online at www.comixny.com or by calling 212.524.2500.
