Event Information

Mindless Self Indulgence, Tantric, Sick Puppies, Tickle Me Pink, and more to be announced will perform at the DeltaPlex Arena on Thursday, October 30th at 5:00 pm as part of WGRD’s First Annual Halloween Freak Show. WGRD is planning a Halloween “Freak Show” that will leave you screaming for more!  This is where Shock meets Rock for one night of pulsating screams!  Don’t miss WGRD’s “Freak Show 2008”, Thursday, October 30th at the DeltaPlex Arena headlined by Mindless Self Indulgence.

Mindless Self Indulgence is a NYC based co-ed punk band whose name manifests itself during their incendiary live shows. Mindless Self Indulgence is also referred to as "MSI" by their loyal fans. MSI's music is a hybrid of Atari driven electronics with a venomous splash of A.D.D Punk Rock. They are the breath of fresh air that is sure to offend your p.c. restrained, category demanding, and humorless peers. The Band consists of four members including Little Jimmy Urine (Vocals, Programming), Steve Righ? (Guitar), Kitty (Drums), and Lyn-Z (Bass).

Even if you don’t know Sydney, Australia modern rock trio Sick Puppies, you’ve probably seen their groundbreaking “Free Hugs,” video, which has garnered almost 30 million views on YouTube.com since it started streaming on the site last year. The heartwarming clip chronicles the true life adventures of a man who walks around holding a billboard that reads “Free Hugs," the police who ban his humanitarian crusade, and the petition that earned him back the right to provide hugs to citizens in need.

The “Free Hugs” video, which accompanied the band’s song “All The Same,” earned Sick Puppies exposure on Oprah, Jay Leno, “60 Minutes” and CNN, and inspired people around the world to begin their own free hugs campaigns. It also propelled “All the Same” into a top-requested single at commercial radio stations across North America. But while the “Free Hugs” video helped spread the music and message of Sick Puppies, the band is anything but an overnight success.

There are more artists and acts and activities to be added to the line up very soon.  Stay tuned for more details!  This will be a freakishly fun event!
