Our next Dracula's Ball event is on Saturday, January 16th, 2010. We have quite an array of talented performers joining us for this event. Tickets for the Ball are $15 and are on sale now through the usual outlets (see below).

BLACK TAPE FOR A BLUE GIRL: As one of the flagship bands of the Projekt record label, BTFABG was at the center of the "Heavenly Voices" style of swirly, ethereal music. With their most recent album, 10 Neurotics, Black Tape has branched out considerably, exploring more of the cabaret influences apparent in their recent work and adopting an earthier style. Spahn Ranch vocalist Athan Maroulis and eclectic soloist Nicki Jaine are part of both the studio album and the live show, helping Black Tape visionary Sam Rosenthal take the band into exciting new territory.
STAGE TIME - 10:35pm

I SCINTILLA: What's better than being able to rock out and dance at the same time? I:Scintilla gives you the opportunity to do both. Fans of electro-rock with catchy hooks and female vocals (like, say, Garbage, Collide or The Birthday Massacre) will surely enjoy this Chicago group's first Dracula's Ball performance. I:Scintilla just released a new EP, Prey on You, in November. They also have an exclusive new track on the Metropolis cancer benefit album, Electronic Saviors. Expect a performance that will be...(dare we say it?) scintillating!

Doors open at 9pm and our event ends at 2am.
