40 Watt's talent buyer, Velena Vego, announced this afternoon via Facebook:
"As a gesture to Athenians who might have been disappointed by missing out on NMH tickets, the band has committed to a third show at the 40 Watt for October 24th, and these tickets are not available online, but can only be acquired locally at the 40 watt today, Saturday May 4th at 2pm. Sorry that this has to happen so quickly but it was the only way to give Athens fans the chance they deserve. With Circulatory System. Exciting News- We encourage you to use Cash instead of using CC today when buying tickets at the 40 Watt club today."
Throw on your rain jacket and go get in line!

In this week's main music feature, we went behind the scenes with the Birdhouse Collection, a nebulous and prolific local musical collective. Click through to sample some of its best output so far.
'Tis the season: on the heels of the Hopscotch Music Festival lineup, a different North Carolina-based fest has revealed its list of participating artists. Asheville's Mountain Oasis Electronic Music Summit, which runs from Oct. 25-27, 2013 and is being presented by the same company that once ran Moogfest (on hiatus until next year; see Flagpole's 2012 coverage), will feature not one but two vehicles for Trent Reznor's tortured tunes—alt/industrial godfathers Nine Inch Nails and Reznor's new project, How to Destroy Angels, will both perform.
The complete schedule for AthFest 2013, which takes place June 21-24 at various venues throughout Athens, has been announced. View it on the AthFest site.
