GWAR-B-Q

GWAR‘s annual GWAR-B-Q went down in Richmond this past weekend, and now GWAR have expanded their tour. They already had a Long Island show scheduled for 9/17 at The Paramount (tickets), and while a NYC show still hasn’t been added, they did other stops in the surrounding area including Philly and Connecticut. Updated dates are listed below.

GWAR bassist Michael Bishop, who you may know better as Blothar, also recently gave a TED Talk. You can watch that video below too.
