BB & SIRIA RECOMMENDED – THREE SHOWS IN ONE NIGHT: MAD PLANET, FAKE YOUR OWN DEATH, SCION HOUSE PARTY
Many a time BB and Siria have what they call “Marathon Nights,” which basically entail making it (or trying to make it) to three or more events/happenings. Very often, those nights are filled with music, art, fashion, and friends– this evening it’s all music. Eclectic at best.
Tonight we hope to run into you at one of the following shows:
