highlights include Tsukamoto's Bullet Ballet and Fukasaku's Yakuza
Graveyard; not really familiar with most of the rest of what's on the
program but it's probabably all worth checking out. and unlike recent
seasons, several of the movies will have multiple screenings.
JS is also collaborating with John Zorn's TZADIK label on a new music
series, the first events are May 12 and 13 and feature quite a lineup:
Makigami Koichi, Yamataka Eye, Haino Keiji, Mike Patton (!!!), Jim
O'Rourke, and Mori Ikue, as well as Zorn himself.

magic of the live show. heh, it's available on Amazon and probably
elsewhere....
