Our Favorite Stories In Music: "It Goes Like This, The Peppermint Twist!" Spotlight on The Starliters' Joey Dee

New Jersey Stage published its 25,000th story in December 2021. As the site approached the milestone, we posed the question on social media as how we should celebrate.  One response was to highlight our favorite stories from over the years.  We liked this idea, but could not narrow things down to just 25 favorites so we will present a favorite each day from different genres. Every Monday we feature one of our favorite stories in music. This week's choice is an interview of Joey Dee of The Starliters by Spotlight Central.

Memory Builds the Monument screens at the Spring 2022 New Jersey Film Festival on February 11

by Ashley Terer
published 2022-02-07

Memory Builds the Monument, which is playing at the New Jersey Film Festival on Friday, February 11 via Video on Demand for 24 hours, shines a spotlight on Club Matinee, a performance theater in Houston’s historic 5th Ward that housed acts such as B.B. King, James Brown, and Sam Cooke. As a haven that blossomed with black talent during an era of segregation, Club Matinee was a place abundant in memories, liveliness, and fantastic music. This high-spirited place of assembly was a source of joy for the black community and a primer place for congregation and socialization. Attendees could dine, chat, and enjoy the music of the greatest black talent to their heart’s desire. Despite the southern backdrop of segregation, the monument that was Club Matinee was a cultural beacon for residents and visitors alike.

Outpost in the Burbs Presents Hollis Brown

(MONTCLAIR, NJ) -- Outpost in the Burbs presents Hollis Brown on February 26, 2022 at 8:00pm. This concert will take place at the First Congregational Church, 40 S. Fullerton Avenue in Montclair. The band's latest new album, In The Aftermath (Mascot Label Group/Cool Green Recordings), is the deliciously depraved outcome of an all-night rock n’ roll riot. The Queens, New York-based quintet escaped to the Poconos to record with a few handles of whiskey, and, in one 24-hour session, ran down The Rolling Stone’s seminal first album of all originals, 1966’s Aftermath. Tracked live in the studio with minimal overdubs, In The Aftermath is potent proof the five-piece group is one of the last great American rock n’ roll bands. The band is expected to play songs from this album and from throughout their catalog.
