Burroughs centennial events

Hi, folks - 
  
 Happy New Year!
  
 Just read the following article on William S. Burroughs centenial events in NYC and Kansas this year and figured it might be of interest:

 I'm very interested in travelling to NYC for some of the Burroughs-related shows at The Stone from 04/08-20, and/or for Bill's residency 04/22-27.  One question for frequent Stone attendees - for high profile shows (Bill, John Zorn, Thurston Moore, etc.) how early do people start to line up, and what are the chances of getting in if you're there reasonably early (say 1 hour in advance)?  I've been to The Stone several times but mostly for jazz artists that don't have as large of cross-genre audiences
  
 Thanks!
  
 Paul
