Thu 5/22-Sun 5/25
The 9th annual Horriblefest, taking place over four days mostly at Now That’s Class, isn’t for the faint of heart and delicate of ear, as its name suggests.
Over that long weekend, seven shows will feature more than 40 punk, hardcore and other loud acts, both local from places like Houston, New York, New Orleans, Toronto, and Phoenix . There’s even a band — Iceage (pictured) — from Denmark. They’ll headline the opening night.
Evening shows and the Saturday afternoon party bus to a mysterious off-site concert are $10-$12. The Friday early evening BBQ show and the two Sunday events — at 6am and 4pm — are free. You can buy an all-weekend pass for $38 if you think you hate the stamina.
There’s a full rundown of shows and bands here.
