The Circus Delecti is a sideshow/stunt show which blends traditional sideshow acts and dances with modern day stunt spectaculars. Founded in 2002, their goal has always been to provide a wide variety of acts to crowds. Acts include classic favorites such as: the Human Blockhead, Bellydancing, Burlesque, Contortion and Comedy with new age stunt acts such as: Strongman Competitions, Ninja Demonstrations, Glass Eating, Glass Walking and Bed of Nails.
Damn Broads‘ CD RELEASE SHOW!!! The broads formed after meeting through an ad posted on Craigslist. Soon enough they were playing shows and by the end of a year they had released their first demo (The Damn Demo.) They are a punk band that happens to consist of all girls but don’t let their gender fool you – they are NOT a girl band. And don’t even think of asking if they’re a riot grrl band. Because they’re not.
The broads have a unique sound. They’re influenced by punk rock, street punk, ska, oi and alcohol lots of alcohol. They’ve been compared to The Pist and the Vomit Punx. They thought that was pretty cool. They were telling peple for weeks… not like people cared, but they told ’em.
The Theatre Zombies is a horror rock trio from Noroton Heights, Connecticut pride themselves on writing fast and fun songs that stretch past the niche and speak to a wide audience of people! They consist of singer/songwriter/guitarist Rob Harms, bassist/songwriter/backup singer Mike Harms, and drummer Tommy Tran.
