"Nightclubbing" is the first ever documentary about the renowned New
York City nightclub Max's Kansas City and the indelible impact it has had on
the world of music, fashion, art and culture.
As legendary Alice Cooper puts it: "A million ideas we're launched back
there", referring to the Max's Kansas City famous backroom where Andy
Warhol held court with artists, actors/actresses and musicians including the
highly influential Velvet Underground.
Max's was famous for hosting the creme de la creme of New York City luminaries
from the art world and film stars to musicians and cultural icons.
Artists, Rock Stars, Junkies, Movie Stars, Gutter Trash, Record Executives all
had a place to gather, intermingle, develop and cross pollinate.
Andy Warhol and his Superstars had a place to kick back, relax and revel in the
freedom to express themselves in a casual setting.
Max's was a place where degenerate excessivness and debauchery were so common,
that Iggy Pop bleeding on stage seemed lightweight compared to people shooting
up amphetamines and having sex in the bathroom.
Starting in 1970 Andy Warhol cohort Danny Fields books the clubs first live
music performances of The Velvet Underground, Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop,
starting Max's on its way to being a live venue of credibility and influence.
The Velvet Underground and their summer 1970 residency kickstart the New York
City live original Rock music scene.
As a showcase venue, future superstar artists such as Alice Cooper, Aerosmith,
Bob Marley, Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith, Madonna, U2, The Beastie Boys had a
place to develop and be discovered.
Transgender musical performances and performers had a safe proving ground to
develop.
Iggy meets Bowie. They develop a friendship that becomes a phenomenal working
artist relationship.
NYC Glam Rock had a place to develop. The New York Dolls influence both locals
and foreigners alike. The New York Dolls and the New York Punk Rock scene
inspired Malcolm McLaren to return to London from New York and put together the
Sex Pistols, thus sparking the UK Punk Rock uprising and spreading
the genre worldwide.
Art Rock had a place to start and the music duo Suicide had a place to develop
and influence the New York City scene.
Bowie deems DEVO the future of music.
The New Hardcore Punk/Post Punk Rock movement had a place to develop.
"And EVERYONE IS HIGH AS A KITE!"
All at the nightclub called Max's Kansas City.
"Nightclubbing: The Birth of Punk Rock in NYC" will be the 6th
acclaimed music documentary for Spanish filmmaker Danny Garcia and will
add to the list of respected music documentaries Danny Garcia has produced and
directed.
His other releases include "The Rise and Fall of The Clash" about the
later era Clash; "Looking for Johnny", about New York Dolls guitarist
Johnny Thunders; "Sad Vacation", a film chronicling the final months
in New York City of the Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious & his girlfriend
Nancy Spungen, "Stiv: No Compromise, No Regrets" about Stiv Bators,

ROBEONE - DOGS AND HALOS
Transglobal Records (Sony/Orchard)
Composed, Performed, And Recorded by
Robert Schindler
“Rob wizzes around the keyboard like
nothing else on this PLANET” (Kerry Barns, One World Music Radio, New Age
Music Planet )
At the young age of 70 Robert has just released his
6th solo recording, ROBEONE on LABEL.
The keyboardist says, “Robeone is
short for Robeoneknobe-- a nickname I got years ago at work for being a huge ‘Star
Wars’ fan. It stuck and I decided to use it for my music name.’”
ROBEONE’s Six instrumental keyboard compositions
effortlessly flow into different styles of New Age, Jazz, Prog and Fusion
musics. Robert uses a range of keyboard
gear including Moog, Mellotron, Kurtzweil, Moog, Mellotron, Yamaha, Roland,
Korg, Kurtzweil, Ensonic Roli Seaboard, EMU, and Ashun Sound Machine. He says: “It’s my wish that this music will
take my listeners away from the current times into a musical journey that
serves as an opportunity to feel better.”
Robert has been recording since the early 1970s with progressive
rockers Mayson on Bearsville Records, pop rock acts The States on Chrysalis and
Boardwalk Records, the eclectic Tony Romero’s Vortex on Melodic Revolution
Records, and the progressive rock group ZOOM with Paul Landry on New Age Music
Planet Records. He’s worked with a number of artists—including notables Ronnie
Spector and keyboards for Johnny Nash when “I Can See Clearly Now” was a hit. He played keyboards for the Award-Winning documentary
Soundtrack "The Fiery Narrows - Following The Path Of John Charles Fremont.”
Robert continues to collaborate with many artists…. Recently
he had a solo set at ProgStock, and will be performing solo, as well, this spring 2022 at RoSFest. The ProgStock promoters dubbed Robert as the
Patron Saint for the Bob Moog Foundation, for connecting them with that North
Carolina-based non profit!

Dec. 20 Kathy Zimmer at the Rockwood Music Hall. NYC

Phoebe Bridgers, Kacey Musgraves
Equipped with beautiful
storytelling and an enchanting voice, NYC-based singer-songwriter Kathy
Zimmer will be playing a show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3 on Monday,
December 20, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. Blurring the lines between folk and pop
music, this artist showcases her style of music that she describes as
"cosmopolitan folk."
Tickets are $12.86 with
service fees. The ticket buy link is at:
www.seetickets.us/event/Kathy-Zimmer/452790
The Rockwood—Stage 3 is
at 185 Orchard Street, in New York City.
This is a 21 and over
show.
Her first live performance
since pre-pandemic, Zimmer looks forward to debuting a set of almost entirely
new songs which were written over the past year and a half. Are any of us the
same now as we were in February 2020? Kathy Zimmer felt as though she was
evolving during this time, and had to create music that reflected that. Add to
that the fact that her band moved from the city as a result of the pandemic,
and she is challenged and excited to find a new performance format with which
to present her songs.
Kathy Zimmer has released
several recorded collections of her music, most recently a vinyl record in 2019
combining two EPs, White Noise and Sparkling Smile,
and a separate single, a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” (all of which are
available on all streaming platforms). A resident of New York City, Kathy
Zimmer is a native of rural Nebraska. Her original love of acoustic
guitars and tight vocal harmonies was the product of being raised in a large
musical family. In school, Zimmer studied classical music, her education
culminating in a master's degree from the Cleveland Institute of Music.
Zimmer's roots and musical explorations have led her to create music she terms
"cosmopolitan folk"--music that is sophisticated, sincere, smart and
accessible with a variety of identifiable influences including country music,
1960s girl groups and classic pop singer-songwriters. However,
ultimately, Kathy Zimmer strives to make something new.
Rock n’
Reel Magazine has declared her the “latter day Joan Baez.” The
Roots Music Report proclaims, “At various turns enchanting,
haunting and soothing—and at times a bit of all of these—Ms. Zimmer’s
sophisticated song crafting never fails to charm.”

Game of Chicken (Live at Progstock) Official Video
Joe Deninzon & Stratospheerus nailed the drama in corporations and in political groups, where they're deliberately creating drama for people they shouldn't. The song "Game of Chicken" is a visual for cars racing to each other, and one swerving away at the last minute. If you don't swerve away at the last minute, you'll be called "a coward," even though no one died.
