We’ve added even more bands to the Midwest Noise Conference. It’s starting to look pretty rad. Check it out:

Our friend Pat Yankee is now officially confirmed. He will be performing as his noisy alter ego, Paranoid Time. Pat is a very active member of the noise community. He’s been booking noise shows for 10 years and runs SNSE Records. Pat will be helping to facilitate the event and is working on booking some really cool artists. More details TBA.

Dental Work – Noise merchant extraordinaire. Coming down from the cherry filled land of Traverse City. Aside from making music, he also runs a cool record label called Placenta Recordings.

This show will be part of a mini tour Dental Work is doing with Xrin Arms from California. Therefore, we’ll be getting performances from both of them. I know CA is not usually considered a midwestern state but who really cares?

We’ve also got two killer bands coming from Grand Rapids. Victory! and Ripped Dad. You may know Victory! as the rhythm section for the reformed Spit For Athena. They will be gracing us with their own special brand of Noise Core insanity. Ripped Dad has no internet presence yet. They still rule though. You can take my word for it. Ripped Dad is three of the members of Skeleton Party getting even more experimental then usual.

To top it all off, we have a lights show lined up for the later bands. Sid Redlin’s friend Ben Ruggles will be setting up some crazy visual effects once it gets dark. This is going to be awesome.
