Other than Cheap Thrills, wich is really great, (they have two stores,
the other is used only - 1433 bishop) there's also l'Oblique (4333
rivard). For used cd's stores that have a relatively good selection in
avant-garde, go to l'Echange (3694 St-Denis or 713 Mont-Royal-this
second one as better choice in avant-garde). On Mont-Royal street and
St-Denis they are thousands (ok, a dozen or more) of used cd stores.
For bookstores, you should check out the McGill university bookstore
(can't find the adress but it is 1 minute away from the cheap thrills on
metcalfe), Chapters (1171 Ste-Catherine), Paragraphe (2220 McGill
College). They are many used book stores between Peel and Atwater on
Ste-Catherine.
They are many cafe's on all the streets mentioned. If you're looking for
french books, they are many other good places. E-mail me for details.

Subject: Victo stuff: looking for musings/possible ride
Hi all,
I'm writing a piece on Victo for HOUR, a weekly paper in Montreal. I am
looking for zornies who have attended the schedule regularly, or at
least on several occasions over the years for their views on what Victo
means to them, and personal recs for this year's fest. This is your
basic pithy quote search. If you are game (I promise not to take too
much of your time), email me privately so that we can make arrangements
to hook up over the phone--my dime, of course. I will be writing my
piece over the weekend, so if we can set up a Saturday time, that would
be best.
Also, I will be leaving downtown Montreal for Victoriaville on Thursday
the 20th at around 2-3 pm. I have room for a couple of people. I won't
be able to take anyone back, as I will be returning after the Brotzmann
Tentet on Sunday night, but I will not be going back to Montreal
directly. Well, if you don't mind ending up about 20 miles north of
Malone, NY, you can take the return trip.
Lurk mode back on.

All That Jazz
Knitting Factory Coming to Hollywood
By DON HECKMAN, Special to The LA Times
Los Angeles is about to have another major jazz club.
Michael Dorf, founder and CEO of New York City's
eclectic music venue the Knitting Factory, has signed a
lease for a 10,000-square-foot space at 7121 Hollywood Blvd.,
in the Hollywood Galaxy building.
The property, according to entertainment real estate agent
Ira Spilky, who handled the transaction, has been bought by a
new landlord and is being transformed into an entertainment
complex.
"The theaters will remain," says Spilky, "but the ground floor
will be completely remodeled, with the Knitting Factory taking
up one of two major spaces in the rear. We're also in
negotiation with another nightclub operator--not a jazz club--for
the other space."
Projected opening date for the Knitting Factory Hollywood
will be early in 2000, preceding by a year the arrival of Quincy
Jones' jazz club in the vast new entertainment complex being
built at Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue.
"I'd love to say we'll be there by New Year's Eve," Dorf says,
"but we probably won't make it until a bit later than that. But our
lease starts June 1, and that's when we'll be groundbreaking to
begin our renovation."
The club will essentially follow the New York model, with a
large performance area seating between 300 and 400, and a
smaller, more intimate venue seating 40 to 50. Soundproofing
will provide complete aural isolation between the two spaces.
"It's a formula that's worked well for us," Dorf says. "The large
room to pay the bills, the other to stretch out and go
avant-garde."
There will also be a separate restaurant-bar area.
"We see that as a main schmooze, talk, hang-out,
free-to-get-into space," he adds. "I like to think of it as a place
where we can pull some of the fragmented strands of the L.A.
music community together and create a real home for
musicians--create a real nice hang."
The New York Knitting Factory initially established its
reputation as a showcase for downtown Manhattan's active jazz
avant-garde scene before expanding into broader areas. (New
York magazine calls it "a true New York original . . . the best live
Music club in New York.") Dorf expects the Knitting Factory
Hollywood location to provide a similarly broad menu of musical
programming.
"We'll attempt to mix and balance the blue-chip avant-garde
artists--Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, Phil Glass, the Lounge
Lizards, Meredith Monk--with some of the important players in
contemporary jazz: John Zorn, Leon Parker, Henry Threadgill,
Ravi Coltrane, people like that," says Dorf.
"And we'll blend it with some of the younger influences on the
scene--Medeski Martin & Wood--stuff that moves into the more
pop and rock culture. Which is what we've done in New York.
Beck did his first New York show at the Knitting Factory, so we
won't hesitate to have the Indigo Girls or Sonic Youth--groups
with a connection to the artistic side of the music, regardless of
the style."
Dorf realizes that such a programming philosophy edges
over into areas covered by other local clubs, but doesn't feel
bothered by the overlap.
"Sure," he says, "there's some duplication with the House of
Blues and Catalina Bar & Grill. But competition is healthy, and
we expect to be in a unique position, with our New York club
and a club in Berlin, which will open around the same time that
we open in Los Angeles. Bottom line is that I think we'll be
increasing the pie, with a larger share for the artists as well as
the public."
Dorf expects numerous other projects to flow from the
Knitting Factory presence in Hollywood, among them an
eclectic variety of musical series, including one dedicated to
film and soundtrack music. In addition, he plans eventually to
create a Los Angeles jazz festival comparable to the major,
citywide event he produces every summer in Manhattan.
"And this is all going to come together technologically," he
adds. "Knitting Factory Hollywood will be one part of an Internet
strategy that will allow us to bring music from three cultural
capitals--New York, Los Angeles and Berlin--live, via the
Internet, to anyone's desktop with the click of a mouse."

And you, sir, are a rich man -- I love Tom Waits, but $75 a ticket is more
than I can afford... =) In any case I'm just consoling myself with the Tom

Look out for the Zornburger -- it starts out as a regular burger, but
has a little piece of everything else in the kitchen embedded in it.
And I'd be afraid of the seasonings on the Yamantaka Ribeye...

From: Sheik Connery <anubis9@concentric.net>
Subject: DeGliAntoni Balogna
I was more than a little disappointed with the Mark DeGliAntoni cd on
Tzadik. To begin with, one of the tracks was just a version without vocals
of a Soul Coughing song from a promo 7" of theirs I have. The rest of the
cd is in the same vein: Soul Coughing throwaway stuff. Another
disappointment is that the cd is only 38 mins or so long, INCLUDING the 5
or 6 mins of bullshit empty space which precede a "hidden track." Some of
the tracks are okay, a little catchy, but ultimately undeveloped songs that
didn't evolve into full-blown Soul Coughing tunes. Elliott Smith plays on
one track, unimpressively. Unless you're a die-hard Soul Coughing fan, I'd
avoid this.
However, anyone who doesn't own the Rough Assemblage cd on Avant should
quickly amend that. It's a compilation of sorts, bringing together
compositions by DeGliAntoni, Norman Yamada and Eric Qin. Mark
DeGliAntoni's compositions on this are what really brought my hopes up for
his new album. It's brilliant stuff, mostly percussive, with lots of great
people like Mark Ribot, Chirstine Bard, Jim Pugliese, Anthony Coleman, etc.
One track by DeGliAntoni features, amongst lots of other great noises, the
percussive sound of 4 automobile autolocks schluuuhK'ing up and down! So
ignore Horse Tricks and go buy Rough Assemblage instead. It's not at all
like Soul Coughing, by the way.

In my opinion, they're both excellent, but the one you probably heard of is
the 15-16 one. It has a decent range of their styles/volumes. If you get
it and like it, I definitely recommend getting the other one, as well as
Pathetique which is in a similar vein to the 15-16 double live. And then
you might as well get all the rest. And anything else you can find by Haino.
The best place to get Haino/Fushitsusha info is:

Okay folks. I've got refeence and copied liner notes from the "Texaco New York
Jazz Festival Radio Series Live at the Knitting Factory." It was a 5 or 6 disc
promo item, (and yes if anyone has one they want to let or know of one hiding
in a used bin somewhere-- please alert me to it) and disc 3, "exploring the

Any help out there?

I was first in line this morning at my TicketMaster outlet and by the
time she got the computer turned on and my request entered, the Sat,
June 12 at the Wiltern in LA had sold out and i was lucky enough to get
a couple of seats in the balcony for the Sunday show. There's also a
Monday June 14 show but I'll bet it's sold out. Maybe more dates to be
added? Two dates in Oakland CA before the LA dates and 9 unspecified
dates in Europe last time I heard. Ticket prices are obscene, but I must
