Repo! At the Academy of Music
Looking for Halloween activities? If horror and black humor are your things, check out Repo! The Genetic Opera at Northampton’s Academy of Music this Friday in a special midnight showing.
Genetic Imperfection, a local shadow cast, are hosting the screening and will perform along with the film as it plays. Also, before the film there will be an autograph signing and Q&A with Terrance Zdunich (illustrator, actor, producer, and co-writer for Repo!). The lobby opens at 9:30 p.m. and the film starts at 12:00 a.m. Get your tickets at the Academy of Music box office or online! All proceeds will go to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Trials and Tribulations playing a Halloween Show this Saturday
Trials and Tribulations are one of my favorite local bands, and they are opening for Thornes, on the basement floor; the same space the once great Dynamite Records called home.
We’re Going to WordCamp NYC 2010!
This weekend some of the Skytemple team will be making a field-trip down to New York City to attend WordCamp NYC 2010. The conference is being held at Baruch College over the days of October 16th and 17th. We’re looking forward to hearing some interesting talks and meeting lots of great people!
Also, see that awesome badge above? Our own designer, Mel, was instrumental in the design of that beautiful skyline featured on not only the badges but also the printed schedule and the conference T-shirt. Great job, Mel!
