Bizarre Live w/ Electric Eel Shock
Following on from last years amazing Bizarre Ball, our favourite newspaper has asked us to perform at another, slightly more low-key but still super-fucked-up event on May 14th down in London town!
Here's the story:
"Good news, gorehounds! This year, you won’t have to wait until the big Bizarre Ball to see your favourite magazine come jerking to life like a reanimated party zombie hopped up on Red Bull and cheap sweets. If you can make it to London in the second week of May, come and join our little shindig!
The first Bizarre LIVE! gig night is being staged in The Purple Turtle in Camden Town on Thursday 14 May, and will be an opportunity for Bizarre readers to come together, hang out with like-minded freaks and geeks, and enjoy some of the best bands, music and performers the UK has to offer. We plan to stage Bizarre LIVE! parties every couple of months in London, and they’re sure to become legendary alt club events.
We’re unfeasibly excited to announce that Zombina & The Skeletones – our headline band from the first Bizarre Ball, and one of the hottest groups in the country – have agreed to top the bill at the first Bizarre LIVE!, and are guaranteed to make the bash go with a bang. Our favourite burlesque/freak show temptress, The Vivid Angel, will also be on hand for a trio of eye-watering performances, and the whole shebang will be presented by Bizarre’s Dr Blackthorn and Alix Fox. Stay tuned to http://www.Bizarremag.com <http://www.bizarremag.com/> and http://www.bizarremag.com/YourBizarre for more news as it breaks.
Tickets for BIZARRE LIVE! cost £10 (plus booking fee), and are available from
http://www.bizarremag.com/live
But be quick! Numbers are strictly limited, and when the tickets are gone… they’re gone!"
...and since that announcement was made, we've heard that Japanese punk metal legends Electric Eel Shock (who cancelled from Bizarre Ball at last minute due to unforseeables) will now be opening for us!
...of course this may mean we'll be getting blown of stage somewhat, but there's worse ways to go...
