Dead Music Capital Band

The Dead Music Capital Band is going to Mardi Gras in New Orleans!  We will be kicking off a weekend of fun and excitement starting on Friday January 25th at the Krewe of Chewbacchus Pre-Party to be held at The Big Top.  All ages are welcome, and there’s a discount on the cover if you come in costume!

The following day, your favorite undead band will march in the 3rd annual Chewbacchus parade, featuring the original wookie, Mr. Peter Mayhew!  After the parade, you will get another chance to see and hear the Dead Music Capital Band play at the Chewbacchanal taking place in the old Habitat ReStore Warehouse.  This party is guaranteed to be out of this world!

That’s right, there’s a Dead Music Capital Band double feature this week, in preparation for the end of the world.  Or at least, the end of the Mayan calendar…  In either case, you have two last chances to come see your favorite undead marching band play before one of those things happens:

THAT Damned Band’s 2nd Annual END OF THE WORLD Party commemorates the END of TIME.  Not quite as dramatic as the Rapture last year, but an end time, to be sure. This time, THE END OF THE WORLD will be celebrated with Burlesque from GoGo MacGregor, the Dead Music Capital Marching Band, THAT Damned Band, and Sick’s Pack. There will be a Post-Apocalyptic Costume Contest with Prizes! The party will take place at Swan Dive, 615 Red River, in downtown Austin, TX (21+ $10)

The second event featuring the Dead Music Capital Band will be the End of the World “Zombie Party” taking place this Friday, December 21st at Papa Woody’s Icehouse, located at 147 E Old Highway 20, Paige, Texas 78659. Come on out and shake your bony thing to the scary tunes of the DMCBand, and come dressed prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse!

The Dead Music Capital Band will make an appearance at SantaCon 2012 this Saturday, 12/15, at the Pine Street Station (1101 E. 5th at Waller) to kick off this year’s Santa Rampage!  Come out and groove to our growing list of “scarols,” such as Rudolph the Dead Nosed Reindeer or Here Comes Krampus!, that are sure to put you in the dancing mood.  Afterwards, join the throngs of Santas through the streets of downtown Austin, in complete Santarchy.  Don your Santa suits, and come on down this saturday night for a different kind of Christmas fun!
