A few times each year, a show happens in Kalamazoo that is truly awe inspiring. The kind of event where everyone in attendance remembers and talks about it for months. Where the experience gets inside you and remains a subtle influence from there on.

I have been lucky enough to experience this kind of event several times this year already. Acid Mothers Temple. Keir Neuringer. Dead Rider. Chicago Underground Duo. Cheer-Accident.
If you attended any of those shows and felt the way I did, then this Friday at Louie’s is were you NEED to be!

Kate Slater has done this town a service by bringing in some absolutely incredible artists. Man Forever & So Percussion.

Man Forever is the side project of Kid Millions, drummer for legendary Psych band Oneida. So Percussion is a pioneering rhythm based group operating in the world of Modern Composition and the Avant-garde. Absolute pro level heavy hitters all around.

They are touring together with a brand new collaboration LP called “Ryonen” (Thrill Jockey).

Local Free Jazz duo Prognosis Negative will be kicking off the night.

Doors are at 9pm
Music starts at 9:30pm
Cover is $8
