There are EP release shows, and then there’s Internet Beef’s EP release show—less of a traditional affair and more so an exposition of artistically epic proportions. The new-ish band is, in fact, dropping their debut EP, Free Trial—a glitzy punk explosion that ought to pair nicely with all the debauchery planned: burlesque dancers, martial artists, drag performers, live painting, a Super Smash Bros tournament, and live comedy. All of that’s in addition to fellow Portland rockers Ayla Ray and Cry Babe opening the musical portion of the evening. by Ryan J. Prado
