"The infamous French experimental/performance-art legend Jean-Louis Costes, who has been plying his trade since the cassette underground of the mid-'80s. A cross between the scatology of G.G. Allin, the depravity of Whitehouse and the transgressivism of Karen Finley"

Black Sun are delighted to announce that musician, artist, actor, film-maker and author, Jean Louis Costes is doing his first and only Irish show in Cork at the Granary Theatre on September 26th. Costes has been working on a special show in english, combining performance and music, for this gig. Due to the graphic nature of his live shows, this performance will be strictly over 18's.


Here is an interview with Costes and Philippe Simon of Prism Escape

Hey, wow I'm sorry. I forgot to reply to this. It was the most amazing gig I've ever been to. Costes was incredible. He was without a doubt the most focussed individual I've ever met. The show ran so smoothly, his set was timed to perfection. (He makes all his music at home, sticks it on a cd and performs the rest of the show like some bizarre opera). People were blown away by the whole thing. I stuck some photos up in the main Black Sun thread. Here's the link again anyway:

I've invited Smegma to play what will be their first (and only) Irish show!
