IN LIMBO: Noise Fest this Weekend


IN LIMBO: Noise Fest this Weekend

Among a slew of great shows this Friday and Saturday, starting at (believe it or not) 9pm both nights Paragon and Castlevania are teaming up to usher in their own funeral march. As another wave of spaces close their doors, this will be an opportunity to revel in the past year and a half of hyperactivity on the West Side. Come out and support the 20 out-of-town performers and over a dozen of local bands, some of which are having their first or final show in Providence. Whether you come early or come late, it should still be alive after anything else finishes.

This Friday & Saturday, November 18th-19th.
@ Paragon and Castlevania
9pm, $8 - $5 donation suggested both nights

I've Got Good News, And Bad News

Which do you want first, team? The dark news is that "Guy Number 1" Art Middleton is leaving us for more temperate pastures in T-minus not that long, putting on hold not only a seemingly bottomless series of positive vibes, but also some of Providence's favorite bands. The good news is that, by way of consolation, he's put together a farewell Arcing show tonight with a dazzling array of Very Special Guests. Behold!

ARCING (Bon Voyage!)
STRINGBUILDER (Think Terminator 2)
JACOB THE TERRIBLE (Worcester Rockers)
THE BODY
TROPHY WIFE (Philly Shredders)
