Le Rug / Hop Along, Queen Ansleis / Chaos Character / Ollie Byrd @ Micheline’s

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

Le Rug is back in the basement this Friday, with good friends Ollie Byrd, far-flung spastic-industrial Chaos Character (from Providence, RI), and Hop Along, Queen Ansleis!

To get to the nitty-gritty, if you have a space, and think music forcefully shoved inside might work for us both, drop us an email. We can use all shapes and sizes, from pretty little alleyways or back porches for an acoustic kind of good time, or an industrial-looking basement for around 100 kids to spazz the fuck out in…
