Philadelphia, PA, Trocadero Theatre, 11/19/2011

 

The main floor at Philadelphia’s Trocadero Theatre was filled and the balconies were packed, populated with those eager to catch a performance of a true originator of the scene. The man himself, the “Godfather of Goth,” Bauhaus front man Peter Murphy was in the house. 2011 was a year of almost nonstop touring for Murphy, and this night was one of 31 dates supported by dark post-punk favorites She Wants Revenge.

Article/Blog – Emilie Autumn in New York

New York, NY, Gramercy Theatre 02/18/2012

The theme of night was “7 Deadly Sins” and many participants took the opportunity to dress up as their evil alter egos. New York DJ Chris2 directed the event’s debauchery in a lovely zombie pope ensemble.

Article/Blog – Death Guild Nineteenth Anniversary

San Francisco, CA, DNA Lounge, 03/20/2012

 

To commemorate the nineteenth year of Death Guild, the oldest weekly goth/industrial dance night in the country and the second oldest in the world, San Francisco’s DNA Lounge hosted four nights of celebration, March 19-22. The always effervescent Everything Goes Cold headlined the second night, which featured all local industrial bands. Not ordinarily a popular night for partying, Tuesday’s crowd was surprisingly energetic as they danced to mixes by DJs Decay, Lexor, and Unit 77 between sets. [..]
