Lemuria is two times lucky: one to have Chuck Palahniuk and two to have The New Orleans Bingo! Show make their Jackson debut at Hal & Mals on Thursday, October 20th.

With many of the band members being Chuck Palahniuk fans, they were eager to send a shout out before the event. Here’s what The New Orleans Bingo! Show has to say:

We at The New Orleans Bingo! Show cannot be more excited about performing at Chuck Palahniuk’s Damned Book Night in Jackson, MS.  As purveyors of oddities in our own right, we’re honored to be included alongside Mr. Palahniuk for a night of  transgressive revelry.

Mr. Michael “Bones” Miller

Several members of the group are big fans of Chuck.  For literary insight into what we like best about his work we go to our resident bookworm and bass player for The New Orleans Bingo! Show, Mr. Michael “Bones” Miller:

“The idea of personal and subjective realities are supremely crafted into lived-in and fleshed out experiences.  Palahniuk’s major strength is his ability to tap into a character’s id, memory, wishes or fantasy and fully develop each scenario.  For each person, those inner thoughts and musings are true, colorful realities… and in Palahniuk’s work, we get to play around inside the minds of those who do not self-censor.”

We’re equally as excited to bring our performance to Jackson for the first time.  It floors us that in our 7 years of existence that we haven’t paid a visit to the City of Soul.  We believe the show is a perfect fit, as we’re estimating that Chuck’s fans that are attending have a certain taste for irreverence and the unconventional.  We’re also hoping that Jackson will be a continued destination for Bingo!.  I mean heck, you’re only 3 hours away!

Chuck will begin his reading at about 8:00 with The New Orleans Bingo! Show to follow. Click here for more details about Chuck Palahniuk’s Damned Book Night.

We cannot wait to meet you New Orleans Bingo! Show!

Love,

Lemuria & Friends
