Cloud Rat, Dakhma, Seventeen Again, Bodies, at the courthouse this Wednesday! April 9th

The Mount Pleasant/Detroit Grind trio CLOUD RAT will be kicking off their tour out west at the Courthouse this Wednesday. The Rat has only played kzoo one other time four years ago, and may not play here again any time soon, so make sure to be there so that you don’t miss my (and potentially your) favorite Michigan punk/grind band!

The new crust/black metal band DAKHMA, will be coming down from Grand Rapids to play their first show in Kalamazoo. If you like your music dark and full of blast beats for the long haul, this is a band for you.

Toping off the show will be locals SEVENTEEN AGAIN and BODIES, making for one heavy, fast, and angry night.

Make sure to bring some bucks for the touring bands, going way out west isn’t cheap. show starts at 7, so be punctual please!

 

Printmaking Workshop TONIGHT

Stop by 926 Davis st. tonight at 6pm and learn linocut techniques and print valentines, patches, and postcards.

For those unaware, linocut is a printmaking technique similar to woodcut in which a design is cut into a sheet or block or linoleum. It is then inked and impressed onto paper or fabric.

*Materials will be provided but if you have some ink, wood, linoleum, or tools bring them! also, if theres specific fabric you’d like to print on bring that too!

As with all  Kalamazoo Free School events, the workshop is open to people of all interest levels and abilities.
