Motherfucker is coming back a week from this Sunday to Avalon for Presidents Day weekend. A year ago that weekend, Bloc Party played their third New York show ever at the party in a heavy snowstorm at the Roxy (RIP?), which still stands as their most impressive NYC performance to date. Total madhouse. This year, the New York Dolls (or what's left of them I guess) are dusting themselves off for another reunion show. Just too perfect. Also on the bill for DJ duty are Optimo and Tim Sweeney, both of which are incredible and would have made the party worthwhile on their own.
There'll be some sort of Editors album giveaways, a couple different drink specials, and to top it all off, someone's filming a feature-length documentary on the party that night. Go nuts.
Check out some more pictures from the MF New Year's eve-eve party. Also see the flier and full release after the jump...
New York Dolls are performing at Motherfucker's party this February 19th. Joining the Dolls will be a who's who of DJs, hosts and MCs that will include Glasgow's Optimo DJs, DFA/Beats In Space's Tim Sweeney, Misstress Formika, ex-Lunachick Theo of Theo and Skyscrapers.
What makes this night more fabulous than past Motherfucker nights is that it will be filmed for a feature length documentary directed by New York based music video director David Casey. The project, simply titled Motherfucker, will be a definitive encapsulation of all things Motherfucker-music, sex, politics, dancing, fashion and of course, the artists, musicians, freaks and rebels who have made it New York City's most beautiful bastard child since 2000.
In accordance with Michael T, Justine D, Johnny T and Georgie Seville's storied history of booking the artists they love (and who love them right back), the Motherfucker team could
not be more delighted to have the glam rock kings/queens the New York Dolls tear the roof
off AVALON this forthcoming Presidents' Day weekend.
“The New York Dolls are the
essence of MOFO-they are the ultimate glam/trashy rock n roll band. The Dolls and
MOFO are the perfect marriage made in hell.” says Michael T.
To help bring everything together, Misstress Formika & Theo will be presiding over MCing
duties for the night, while hosts Miranda Moondust, Peppermint Gummybear & Ron M
ensure everyone that is good and f*cked up by the time the last pair of panties
falls at 4AM.
