The exhibition Opening Party was held on May 10th from 6pm to 9pm at 521 W23rd street with live music by ENDLESS BOOGIE. This event celebrated the Boo-Hooray publication of the DREAMWEAPON exhibition catalog. It is available for sale in a regular edition, limited to 1000 copies, and a deluxe boxed edition of 100 copies with a numbered photo print, a numbered silk-screen and a CD of previously unheard music and poetry.
Two new limited edition LPs, “Dreamweapon I” and “Dreamweapon III” were published on the Boo-Hooray imprint and set to release at the Opening Party. The now sold-out LPs, which were limited to 500 numbered copies of each, include previously unreleased recordings from the MacLise archive featuring Angus MacLise, Tony Conrad and Jack Smith.
Boo-Hooray also celebrated Record Store Day by distributing 100 Dreamweapon Tickets attached to random copies of the flyer for the show. This ticket entailed the holder to a copy of the Dreamweapon IV CD of unreleased music and a limited edition print. The lucky ducky could redeem the ticket at the exhibit.
