About Me

Home of THE MEATLOCKER: 8 Park St., Montclair, N.J. I am a promoter and can book your Act in a thriving, private, underground video and film club in New Jersey which is 40 minutes from Manhattan. The place has launched many generations of performers, and is actively supported as a creative oasis by new generations.Johnny's Wild Juke Joint presents: Punk, Rockabilly, Psychobilly, Surf, Horror, Ska, and Hellbilly meets classic blues and country during this new film and video series sponsored by the home of The Meatlocker and Chaos Kitchen!!!! We've gone head first into this on short notice and we hope you regulars will come out and show your appreciation and support and be participants. As time goes by this should really heat up so let's get it off the ground right!!!! Thank you to all the performers who have shown interest in this new event, and we will be putting you on the bill when we can coordinate schedules in the next couple of months.You can drink at the bar next door, we do not condone underage drinking.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People with interesting acts who want to play in an underground private club and be in our film and video shoots. We are a nicely sized, black, graffitti filled, ROUGH GRUNGY idiocyncratic basement, with a stage and many adjoining rooms in the middle of a thriving downtown, with easy access to public transportation to New York City. We are very busy, and supported by a hip, urbane, creative community of all races and ages, who have donated all kinds of AV equipment over the years. Booking is run on our regular nights like booking out a VFW or Fire Hall. To book shoots and shows you would rent out the space(very cheaply!!!!) Money is always negotiable. We can try to book other acts to split costs, and with promoting by posting the date on our site as well as post flyers at our other shows, spread the word, etc. (But we will not do ALL the promoting). To sort out the bad intentioned riff raff and trouble makers from regular participants we will be slowly instituting a membership policy, members can also bring guests and are responsible for their guests behavior. This new policy is still in the formation proccess so DO NOT WORRY about not being able to get in!!!!!!! Questions call: 415-516-7174.
