BlackMath Playing for FREE: Online and at Logan's Square Friday

August 21, 2009

BlackMath_colesAll week on NPR's Morning Edition, they've explored the dominant 00's business model of free stuff on the internet. Face it, ever since Napster  – or since the Dawn of Man (see major bone score at 5:00 mark) – we love free. In that chintzy spirit, you can catch our favorite local dark/new wave/electro band, BlackMath for FREE ($0.00) in Logan's Square tonight. (And snag a free download here.)

But wait. Countering the mooch-heavy norm, people have been actually buying BlackMath music. Their initial vinyl LP sold out within weeks at Permanent Records, who offered to press it earlier this year. One can still give direct support and buy their 7" online here.  

If you read our previous post on them, you know what fans we are. So check them out.

Who: BlackMath, Catacombz, Bitchin Bajas, Inyan Kara
When: Friday, August 21, at 9:30 p.m.
Location: Cole's, 2338 N Milwaukee Ave (between Belden Ave & Medill Ave)
Cost: Free. (donation requested for touring bands)
