Download or read book Antichrist Superstar written by Timothy H. Sexton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-03 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trouble all started when that Yankee playwright Anton O’Masia came into town. He hooked up with old Duke Forberry in Forberry’s latest attempt to turn rust into gold. Duke had bought the old Ritz Theatre and planned to open up competition against the Fountain of Youth Theatre, you see. Well, that Yankee writer wrote this musical called “Antichrist, Superstar!” and Forberry put it on. You can just imagine how a play with that title went over down here in the South. It didn’t take long for Rev. Matthew Schaffner to get some protestors picketing up and down in front of the theatre. They were led by that John Elway lookalike Tony Truwiss. Like Anton said, that boy could eat corn off the cob through a football facemask. Tony sure did know how to put on a protest, though. He had Schaffner’s older daughter Beth with him and that pretty little Erica Withershins, too. She’s actually the one who got everything started by going to Rev. Schaffner and telling him about the play in the first place. A lot of people figured she did it to get even with her ex-best friend Callie Pygusse, who was the star of the play. (Not to mention sleeping with her director, Anton). Considering how much things got out of hand and we started making the national news, it’s actually a surprisingly funny story. When I got the idea to make a book out of it, it was already the most exciting thing to happen to our little town in years. And that was well before Callie took off her clothes onstage and Beth’s sister Mary revealed Pastor Schaffner’s big secret and we all found out the shocking truth about Erica.

Download or read book Music in Youth Culture written by j. jagodzinski and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-08-19 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music in Youth Culture examines the fantasies of post-Oedipal youth cultures as displayed on the landscape of popular music from a post-Lacanian perspective. Jan Jagodzinski, an expert on Lacan, psychoanalysis, and education's relationship to media, maintains that a new set of signifiers is required to grasp the sliding signification of contemporary 'youth'. He discusses topics such as the figurality of noise, the perversions of the music scene by boyz/bois/boys and the hysterization of it by gurlz/girls/grrrls. Music in Youth Culture also examines the postmodern 'fan (addict)', techno music, and pop music icons. Jagodzinski raises the Lacanian question of 'an ethics of the Real' and asks educators to re-examine 'youth' culture.

Download or read book Dissecting Marilyn Manson written by Gavin Baddeley and published by Plexus Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dissecting Marilyn Manson, author Gavin Baddeley performs a cultural autopsy upon Manson, examining the seminal influences and psychotic sources that have gone into making him the Frankenstein monster that he is today. With its heavily visual approach, the text and pictures create the impression of a pathological scrapbook, emphasising the idea of the performer being put under the knife, exploring the Manson mythos in an irreverent but authoritative manner. Each chapter exposes one gruesome angle after another, gradually revealing just what makes Marilyn Manson tick and why so many find him so compelling. Dissecting Marilyn Manson offers the legion of dedicated Manson fans an alternative look into his macabre and twisted world. This revised and updated edition continues dissecting up to the present day, analysing recent developments in Manson's professional and private life, including his recent high-profile court case, marriage to fetish model Dita Von Teese, and creative forays into the worlds of art and film.
