The line is usually “fuck it up, Pigface,” but after things have been fucked up enough this year, the industrial supergroup is looking to pay it forward. This Saturday, October 10th, the band is streaming a live performance, recorded at Thalia Hall last November, a show which marked the end of the group’s first proper tour in nearly a decade and a half. The revenue generated from the event will go in part to the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA), a group looking to preserve the smaller music venues we know and love.
While fans can purchase tickets from the band, they are encouraged to find out if their local venue is participating, as tickets purchased through a local venue will result in 50% of the price going to said venue, with the remaining amount going to the musicians and technicians involved, as well as to the aforementioned NIVA. Among the participating venues is Darkotica, a sister night of our partners The iNation located in Cincinnati, OH. Click here for their unique link.
