FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

THE JOE ICONIS ROCK AND ROLL JAMBOREE

ANTHONY RAPP, ANNIE GOLDEN are among special guest stars

New York, NY, January 2nd, 2008—THE JOE ICONIS ROCK AND ROLL JAMBOREE, an
evening of tunes by musical theater writer Joe Iconis, will play The Laurie
Beechman Theater on Sat Jan 5th (8pm), Sun Jan 6th (8pm), Sun Jan 13th (6pm),

Newly Blacklisted writer Joe Iconis returns to the Beechman, bringing with him
his merry band of musical theater punks. THE JOE ICONIS ROCK AND ROLL JAMBOREE
is a laid-back evening of Iconis tunes, featuring cuts from Joe's
recently-orphaned musical "The Black Suits," and a bunch of new songs. Songs of
hate and hope, suburbia and pornography, cougars and jailbait, dead people and
livin' things and more sing-alongs than you can shake a glass of whiskey at.
Some exciting special guests will join Joe for this, the first leg of his
legendary "Mule Revolution " Tour 2008. So come on down to the Jamboree- it's
loud, soft, sweet, nasty, and, above all else, bloody as hell.

The cast includes Iconis-regulars Katrina Dideriksen, Matt Hinkley, Lauren
Marcus, Krysta Rodriguez, Lance Rubin, Brent Stranathan, Jared Weiss, Jason
“SweetTooth” Williams, and THE KISSIN’ KAZOO SISTERS (Liz Lark Brown and Sarah
Glendening.)
