2015-04-10: Gypsy Spring at the Waldorf!

I know, it's strange -- no one designs posters anymore, just Facebook event headers.

Due to a medical emergency, the Planks' set at last month's Balkan Beats party on March 6th was postponed. The good news is that we're all tip-top now and ready to return to the stage for a distinctly Royshiker Krokves set (think Old Country and European points further East) at the next of their parties at the Waldorf (1489 E. Hastings.) Also on the bill: Adam Shaikh and the Burinata Duo, plus visuals by VJ Simon Kinotropy! The show starts at 10 pm, $15 at the door!

2009-04-10: Planks in BurnBC Bunnarchy at the Waldorf

First up -- PHEW! a big thanks to everyone who came out to the Ship of Fools variety show we hosted last weekend and helped to make it such a room-filling success! Hours and hours of Planks in different textures and configurations!

Now, where were we? Oh yes -- Eventually able to take up a gig invitation extended to us as we turned a room over to RMS, this Friday night we're pleased to return to the Waldorf (1489 E. Hastings) and another party thrown by the incendiary folks at BurnBC, who hope to disseminate Black Rock City ideas and happenings throughout Cascadia, now at the Waldorf on the second Friday of every month. The last time we played one of their shows there we met the fabulous Marmaladies (and Jane "Break Your Freak" Panek, a whole other story 8) and got the scoop on the giant robot spider that's been terrifying people at Car-Free days; this time we're pleased to keep the good company of DJ BTox and Dialectic (live PA) as well as the customary fire show and perhaps an alternative Easter celebration, "Bunnarchy". Our hour-long set is scheduled to start at 10 pm, following an open stage of sorts. Admission is on a sliding scale -- $10 for those "in an expressive state" (as judged by the people at the door, presumably) up to $30 for the plebs in their everyday street duds.
