(INTERVIEW STARTS AT 5:28)

With MadameZuzus.com set to soon offer newly remastered copies of ADORE on vinyl, they’ve also announced that only a few copies of the box set remain: 19 to be exact. With demand for the autographed version running far beyond expectations, the initial order has just about run out, and according to Zuzu’s manager, “no more will be ordered anytime soon.” So get ‘em while they last! And keep checking the nexus for highly-anticipated ADORE vinyl sets, with unique merchandise pack

Enter Madame Zuzu’s tomorrow from 6:30 on, and you’ll be greeted with a rare treat: the playing of WPC’S ‘MUSIQUE CONCRETE’ installation, fresh from it’s debut at Catland. And as a bonus, the work will be raffled off with the caveat that the pieces remain at Zuzu’s for at least a month. But wait, there’s more: a 2nd prize will be offered, which will be a signed and personalized 1st copy from AEGEA’s 3rd printing, copy 501 of 1000. With additional copies in-store and offered a

We'd like to offer one more round of applause here at The Panopticon for Billy's brother Jesse, who as you can see above was recently honored for his 20 years of service. For those interested in meeting the Colonel in person, he'll be with the roster of RESISTANCE PRO WRESTLING this Friday, 7.25, at Arabian Knights in Willowbrook. Tickets can be purchased at the door, and those mentioning the Colonel's name at the door, according to him, will be 'charged even more!'

Currently, our relevant submissions for Memorabilia Mondays has dwindled to where we must once again ask our dear readers to check their stocks anew; for we wouldn’t be serving if what was notated wasn’t both noteworthy and obscure. So what are we looking for: the rarest of posters, flyers, band-owned equipment, one-of-a kind items, and perhaps handwritten set lists and the like. Here’s a suggestion: if it’s worth a lot, it’s probably a good one. --- Interested in sharing uni

Question #1, from Dayvid: Will you be working on and releasing more music along the lines of AEGEA? I love the idea of you pursuing a brave path like Cluster or Popul Vuh making soundtrack-ish or (transcendental) meditative music. “Thank you, appreciate the question. As far as more instrumental work, the answer is a general yes, but I’d caution anyone who pays attention to these sorts of things not to see my work disparately meaning: I personally don’t see much difference in

So it’s done now, MONUMENTS FOR AN ELEGY that is; and what a relief. Only the master mix is left. That aside, I reviewed the questions today for the AEGEA-RAVINIA Q + A, and noticed more than a few off topic (as in NOT about AEGEA or RAVINIA. Ahem! I guess rules no longer apply?). Apparently more that a few erstwhiles decided to ask whatever consumed them as whimsy. And I noticed more than a few were like: ‘Hey Billy, were all the albums this hard to make?’ The notion being t

From BC: "This here is the genuine article: a cd-pro from Masterdisk, NYC, from the era when Howie Weinberg worked there; and as you might note, has my handwriting on it too. Where this came from I know not (unless I gave it away?) More than likely 'procured' (which is a nice way of saying: taken by illicit means from someone who worked for SP and passed on for dosh). Back then, a cd-pro was used to determine whether the last stage coloration and level process was suitable fo
