Creepoid - Tour Kickoff with Nothing (playing KFN 6/23)

I'm glad I ventured out to KFN last month to see Creepoid, as I will be away on vacation for their next Philly show, back to KFN on June 23rd. While I'm bummed, I'm happy to see that these guys are doing good things, like this - embarking on a short tour with their pals Nothing. Check out my review of Creepoid's show at The Church back in March here, and my story in the latest JUMP issue here.

Creepoid is another one of those buzz-worthy local bands crawling out from basements of homes/makeshift practice spaces/recording studios lately in Philly.
