Inland Steel BuildingThe Interociter & Planck Studios
30 Years of the Talking Heads: Looptopia '08 - May 2nd, 2008
Posted Jan 7, 2008
Our proposal for a spot in the Looptopia '08 lineup was accepted. The show is on - The Interociter will be dressed as foodstuffs and covering the Talking Heads album More Songs about Buildings & Food in front of a projected video mosaic.
The Inland Steel Building was recently purchased by Capital Properties. Architect Frank Gehry is reportedly involved and is said to be contributing to renovation plans. Said renovation may be occurring during the festival in May. If that's the case then the show's location will be changed.
More updates to come as we're informed. Rock.
One thing to remember here is that Looptopia '08 will be a free event. Over 300 artists and 100 venues spread across the loop. In honor of such schemes, it only seems fitting:

Hey - yeah, I was emailed the acceptance letter and of the other email addresses CC'd, a couple names looked familiar. I'm not prepared to use that as a definitive list though.
I'm betting they release a more complete list to build a little buzz as the event nears.
*** Note to anyone performing - feel free to leave a comment and a link to your site. Yeah, I'm curious who'll be at the show too.
