Plenty of opportunity to get weird this weekend!
Thursday, May 31st
BA Johnston, the Ketamines, Microdot, and the Vibrating Beds!! I first heard the Ketamines via their LP at CKUW, and have been hooked ever since, and B.A. shows are notoriously wild. I’m pretty pumped. This is sure to be a great show. OK, I’LL STOP SO THAT YOU CAN GO CHANGE WHATEVER YOU NEED TO CHANGE IN ORDER TO COME TONIGHT!!!!! GO!!!!!
Doors at 9, show is at 10. $10 gets you in. -Victoria King

Four local electronic artists, eight speakers & five hours of sweaty, complex vibrations! Show up at Ace Art at 9pm and Tim Hoover, Blunderspublik, Mink! (aka Mike Germain), and Andy Rudolph(of Mahogany Frog) will have your ears dancing off the side of your head. Or inside your head. Why don’t you find out?
The doors of 290 McDermot Ave open at 9pm this Friday when you give them the magic number – $7. – Adrienne Yeung
