The Curiosa Festival makes it’s DC area stop at the Merriweather Post Pavilion this Friday. The festival line-up was hand-picked by Robert Smith to represent the best of the new “dark” rock bands from the US and UK. And boy does it! The line-up includes Mogwai, The Rapture, Muse, The Cooper Temple Clause and Interpol who will play on alternating stages until The Cure take the main stage around 9:15. I previewed the fest in New Jersey last weekend and every band that played was on fire. Literally in the case of Mogwai who overpowered a monitor amp to the point that it burst into flames! The fun begins at 4PM.
Tickets are still available for this great day of music. Don’t miss it!
