This weekend was a fever dream. 20+ thousand people rolled through the Ionia Freak Fair. We're so thankful Billy Strings and his incredible team entrusted us to curate and produce the side stage for his inaugural hometown fest, with metal and hardcore bands he grew up playing with and loving. This video shows a little taste of what the energy felt like. See You Next Tuesday is destroying here. Later in the afternoon, Billy jumped up and guested with both Flesh and Blood Robot and Cryptopsy. What a cool experience. To everyone who swung through and moshed, whether in your black metal tee shirt or your tie-dye shirt while barefoot, every band will remember this weekend for the rest of their days. Unbelievable.

Tonight, all 3 of those bands will be joined at the Scheme by Attrition Cult for an evening of sonic destruction. Tickets are still available, please come hang.

It's day two of the Ionia Freak Fair. We made a bit of a mess of the place with Bane, For the Fallen Dreams, and Heartsick. Let's finish it off tonight! Cryptopsy, Flesh and Blood Robot, and See You Next Tuesday are going to turn themselves inside out in the circus tent tonight (and then at the Scheme tomorrow). The Freak Fair is sold out, but there's tickets left to see the carnage tomorrow at the Scheme!

If you're here, swing by our tent! We've got pinball machines on for free play, and we're going to tear some s**t up!
