Countdown to Midnight

December 22nd, 2006 by Jon B.

Jonnie Spaceman will be making an appearance at Boston’s First Night celebrations. I’ll be playing a few songs between sets by UV Protection, as well as making a bit of noise with them and homemade-analog-synthist Dave Levin (aka The Juliet Kilo).

The Best Part: This happens on the steps of the Boston Public Library between 10pm & Midnight! If Channel 4’s Jack Williams doesn’t kick us off stage, we’ll do the countdown, and if you’re really lucky (?) you’ll hear Auld Lang Syne warbled on the theremin at midnight.

The Extra-Wacky Part: Over at the Boston Common, there will be another simultaneous countdown with another thereminist! Eric Ross will be performing with Donald Knaack (aka The Junkman). Let the Theremin Death Match begin!

Background Music

I was poking around for reviews of this past weekend’s Bazaar Bizarre and discovered this podcast. Skip ahead to 18:18 and you can hear Jonnie Spaceman in the background warbling out “O Holy Night” and then the Pixies’ “Gigantic”. Thanks to misshawklet for the heads up.

Oh — and the Bostonist had a nice preview of the event, including a photo of yours truly.

I was doing some vanity googling for the Lothars and stumbled upon this Japanese fan’s entry. Google’s translation service does a pretty good job of giving one a sense of what it’s about.

Plus, we get the gift with purchase of a potential album title (i.e. the title of this post).
