Saturday
10 PM-4 AM: Thar be Pirates!
The Great Lakes has a long history of pirates. I say "has" rather than "had" because today the tradition is alive and well in a less violent and more legal way, with a pirates of the great lakes webseries. Lets celebrate this with lots of drinking and dancing. Also, who doesn't love pirates? Festivities include:
Armageddon Party: A core duo with multiple affiliates that perform live instrumentation, and videography, while resampling and manipulating live with multiple filters and effects for an experience that will continually progress.
Third Realm: Darkwave atmospheres, industrial beats and electronic sequences. Several radio stations and night clubs have featured Third Realm enabling the emotions of this sincere project to reach the souls of the underground community. Frequently labeled as the best kept secret of the industrial scene, increased attention is sweeping towards Third Realm, which is the brainchild of Nathan Reiner. Injecting emotional experiences into tortured musical arrangements is the primary formula behind the audio mayhem. Backed by the ability to create genuine moods through sound, Third Realm struck a cord with film producers landing songs in films such as 'A Perfect Fit' and 'DarkPlace'.
Sunday
10 PM-4 AM: Dressed to Impress: Victorian/Neo Victorian/Steampunk/Awesome Outfit Edition
Buffalo has a large collection of victorian houses still in use today. Some are still single family homes, others have been converted into apartments or for commercial use. Lets celebrate Buffalo's Victorian era with a grand ball where we look fuckin awesome and try to drink the place dry one last time. Festivities may or may not include:
Garda: Garda, Upstate New York's premiere Dark Electro-Rock band, centers around three irrepressible vocalists who happen to be multi-instrumentalists. Chris Miller and Eric Szymanski [vocals/guitars/synths], who, along with Ken Devlin [vocals/bass/synths] and drummer Rändy Käus, single-handedly resurrects the rather fashionable sounds and attitudes of electronic rock for an unsuspecting generation.
Voltaire: Voltaire (Aurelio Voltaire Hernandez) is often described as a modern day renaissance man. He is a singer/ performer, creator of comic books, animation and toys.
