Dicken's Pub, Calgary, AB

4 Whole Days of Mind-Twisting Industrial music!!!
Make this party your new fucking job!!!!


It's Terminus Eve and everyone is polishing up their leather and spines, splashing on some fake blood, and getting all warmed up on the dance-floor for the best fucking party all year!!












Thursday: Pre-Party




Sound check: when you show up REALLY EARLY you get a private show!
It was my privilege to dance for Leatherstrip early Thursday while everyone got set up!

My personal favorites: Leatherstrip (Of course!), Statiqbloom, Hide (Such an inspiring woman!!!), FGFC820, Ivardensphere - but the whole damn festival was really worth experiencing!! It's the most unique and worth-while music experience that Calgary offers!

Reality Shift:

Terminus always shifts my reality drastically and suddenly - last year I became a recording industrial artist literally overnight! (Completed 2 albums in 4 weeks!) This year I was told I was suddenly working for an entirely different company than the one I'd been with for 20 years! And I was also told that due to a lab error I had handled a very dangerous medical sample that was unknown to be so dangerous at the time... so we'll see if the clock's ticking on my brain turning to sponge! (No one would notice the change in me, I'm sure!) AND I got to meet and see so many fucking excellent electronic/industrial artists - that'll shift anyone's reality!!!

Thanks:


Thank you kindly to all the musicians who travelled from all over to come spend the weekend here with us! I am a better person from the experience!

Thanks SO MUCH to Dicken's Pub (Amber & Chris Hewitt) for bringing us these talented musicians and putting so much time, effort, and money into bringing us this life-changing experience every year! I can't wait for the next one!
Start planning your costumes now! ;)
