It's been three weeks already since this year's NIGHT OF 1000 STEVIES on May 13th, and we are still combing through hundreds of photos taken at The Night. Thankfully, all of our show videos are now in and uploaded to our NOTS 26 PLAYLIST on THE JACKIE FACTORY's YOUTUBE CHANNEL. We are delighted to share a few with you here - touch any still and it will take you to the video. There are also links to many of the press pieces and photo albums posted on the NOTS FACEBOOK PAGE, with more to come..

NOTS 2016 debut performer CLAUDETTE RODRIGUES of FLEETWOOD MASK, flew all the way from San Francisco to bring down the house with her Total Stevie Realness. Magickal!

NOTS video documentarian JEREMY ROCKLIN of NEW YORK LIVES put together this under three minute capsule of the 2016 show. Scenes from the BATTLE OF A THOUSAND STEVIES that closes each show are intercut with snippets of many of the evening's performers, ensembles and audience members. (KIMBERLY CLARK is pictured here.)
A wonderful summation of an epic Night!

Two legends of Night of 1000 Stevies performance joined forces for this late-night Method Go-Go set at NOTS 26. VANGELINE THEATER is a NYC based butoh performance troupe who has made inestimable contributions to NOTS for the past decade. Here they team up with master puppeteer and fellow Legend of NOTS BASIL TWIST and his Big Beautiful Black Ghost puppet, last seen in his SISTERS FOLLIES show in 2015. Stevie mix by DJ SAMMY JO.

NOTS POSTER DESIGNS ON TSHIRTS AND MORE

Our posters for each year's NOTS theme and cover star are widely collected and have even ended up in books. After seeing JOHNNY DYNELL'S hard work appear on bootlegged shirts as far away as Malaysia, we've decided to sell them ourselves in the long-running Jackie Factory shop.

DARK DAUGHTERS GEAR BENEFITS LOCAL ANIMAL RESCUE

100% of profits on NOTS 26:DARK DAUGHTERS shirts (at left below) and poster benefit ZANI'S FURRY FRIENDS year round. ZFF is a NYC animal rescue that saves dogs and cats from city shelters and finds them loving new homes. Our vendors also donated a percentage of sales, and Zani's adoption van was parked outside the venue, resulting in a new home for one lucky dog. The artwork pictures NOTS songbird LADY ZOMBIE as THE GODDESS NYX/ NICKS.

NOTS 17:EDGE OF SEVENTEEN GEAR AND POSTER

The most famous of all our poster images for NIGHT OF 1000 STEVIES – this EDGE OF SEVENTEEN beauty advertised our 17th annual edition back in 2007. The Art Nouveau influenced rendering of show star HEATHER LITTEER aka JESSICA RABBIT DOMINATION was featured in the 2012 book CLASSIC ROCK POSTERS 1952-2012 (Omnibus Books). It is new in our shop as of June 2016.

We can never thank you - the Enchanted NOTS audience - enough for your enduring support, positive energy and roaring, tambourine-shaking ovations. With all the shows we do and have done for decades, you are by far our favorite audience and performance family. We look forward to next May and expect to announce the NOTS 27 date around New Year's.

To STEVIE NICKS, deepest thanks for the Inspiration.
And The Love Remains...
