When the Future Was Now!
Recommended
For the month of November, Ron Gassaway (leader of freeform art rock ensemble Party Killer) curated a series called When the Future Was Now, which connected the worlds of sci-fi cinema and art with the local underground/experimental music scene. If you missed any of the shows last month, you’ll have a chance to rectify that tonight, since one of the events had to be rescheduled due to the anti-Trump protests. And, lucky you, it’s one of the best of the bunch, in part because it features an appearance by John Shirley, the sci-fi/horror author who helped usher in the cyberpunk revolution and penned lyrics for Blue Öyster Cult. He’ll be joined by trance-inducing psych rockers Galaxy Research and Zozma. ROBERT HAM
