GINSBERG'S THEOREM

1. You can't win. (The Law of Conservation of Energy)
2. You can't break even. (Second Law of Thermodynamics)
3. You can't get out of the game. (Third Law of Thermodynamics)

WARNING:
THIS JUNE WE ATTEMPT TO BREAK THE 1ST RULE OF UNIVERSAL THERMODYNAMIKZ
Lord Knows I've tried defeating Rules #2 and #3 over the past twelve years, yet here we are...

This time,
WE WILL WIN!

You are cordially invited to SCHWETFEST 12.0: A DIY SCI-FI FUTURIST MUSICK BALL!
On Friday 20th June from 7pm until 4am at Strange Brew (Bristol).

From Canada, Norway, Belgium, Germany, Scotland and across France and England come a cohort of Global Sonic Miscreants converging for One Night Only!

Attempting to address the approaching wave of l'appauvrissement culturel, we offer up 9 acts that defy, counter and negate the purveying, perverted trends of today.

"Make new, original non-conformist music tangible. Discourage sycophantic adulation. Reject Nostalgia."

Line-up coming shortly.
All out-of-towners, EIGHT Bristol debuts!
Familiar faces in formations unforeseen. No "headliners" (ALL HEADLINERS!).
0% compromise utmost aural freakishness from the get-go 'til the curtain call.

Limited £12?! LO/NO WAGE TIX available via Headfirst only.
Please consider buying an Average Schmuck ticket at £15, or perhaps even paying more if you are able to and wish to support sonic miscreancy in your area.
More £ on the door.

NEW WAVE KARAOKE warm-up event on the Thurs 19th TBA with 1 live act.
Book the Friday off (call in sick) and get down early. Dinners served from 7.

This may be the only Schwet event of the year, act appropriately...
