NOVEMBERS DOOM Acoustic Set Added!!

[GateXII]

NOVEMBERS DOOM have just confirmed that they will be adding a very special acoustic set on the same night, May 9th, of their main stage performance at this year's CHICAGO POWERFEST. This will be their first ever acoustic set on American soil, and will be held in the Pearl Room's connected lounge (Capone's) prior to their main set.

For this year's POWERFEST, festival organizer's CRJ Productions have made arrangements to have the adjacent lounge opened up to fest attendees as a special room for fans to kick back, hang out & check out some cool acoustic performances which will take place in between main stage acts. Additional vendors will also be invited to set up in the lounge area, and if any vendors are interested, please contact CRJ via the fest website www.ChicagoPowerfest.com

CRJ also commented, "This is yet another step towards our ultimate goal of creating the complete festival experience for the POWERFEST, and we're very excited to see how things will continue to develop. We hope that by opening up the lounge this year, it will give fans a chance to hang out, and even an opportunity to rest instead of having to stand the entire night...something many fans have expressed an eager interest in over the years."

Dang it, I am sorry I'm going to have to miss this.

Stupid finals.

 

[Will Bozarth]

awesome. cant wait to see who the other acoustic acts are

 

[ShadowLioness]

Holy crap! This rules over anything else that has ever ruled.

I was so jealous when the cats overseas got an acoustic set. Excuse me while I change my pants.

 

[HateAmmoAssailant]

Good stuff. I just wondered if there was a lounge. I really need to kick back with a beer in my hand before and after the gig. Very important

 

[Vegetaman]

We might be able to make it.

I really hope my comprehensive Chem II final isn't Sat night.

Holy crap! This rules over anything else that has ever ruled.

Yes it does.

This is so cool. Will it be a truly unplugged thing like when Macabre plays at the public library, or simulated acoustics? Either way it should be fun! Capone's is perfect for something like this.

Pate & Veggie: I hope you guys can make it!

This is a really good idea.

Acoustic guitars for sure. Bass will most likely be electric. Since we don't do this sort of thing too often, we don't own an acoustic bass guitar. (They usually sound pretty bad anyway)

C'mon Chris! I know you got one...

I can't recall if Macabre even had a bassist for the library show.

Ok, thanks for the info.

 

[Novembers Paul]

I think Chuck and Lance used to both play acoustic guitars when they did it. I don't think I ever saw Chuck play bass acoustically.
