dammit, if this wasnt a weeknight, id drive up

Not really sure if anyone is interested, but this will be Ty Stagediver's return to live sets after a full year of running Radiograffiti. As always, the Amiga 1200 will get the workout of a lifetime. I'm not positive on start times, but I'm almost certain he plays last (midnight-ish).

I'm also told he'll be doing some Hexadeci remixes and "something of a return to my old 8bit stuff." No idea what that is supposed to mean.

LOVANOVA - http://www.lovanova.net/
“Milwaukee punk and noise alum Paul “Evil” Kneevers calls his latest band’s style “lounge prog rock.” It’s a fitting designation for Lovanova and the monstrous tones of Kneever’s Hammond organ. The nine instrumentals on the group’s debut flit from bachelor pads heavy on leopard print and tiki lights to the spacious domains befitting Emerson, Lake & Palmer or Focus. Not far from either venue stands a soul revue with optional go-go dancers. If the concept seems a bit schizoid, that mighty keyboard keeps it all together.” - expressmilwaukee
